Angry Birds movie confirmed

*Ex-Chairman of Marvel Studios David Maisel has confirmed the Angry
Birds movie is* actually happening.

He said, “There has been so much chatter about an _Angry Birds_
movie, but it’s now real, the process is starting now.”

The _Iron Man_ producer has teamed up with games company Rovio in
order to bring this slightly odd project to life.

CEO Mikael Hed seems very pleased with their partnership, even going
as far as to compare Maisel to another slightly more famous movie
mogul.

“[They are] two people I know have gone outside the studio
system and built a very significant entertainment business that
managed to break through on the movie side.

"Since that’s our aspiration as well – and George Lucas
was unavailable – David was really the best person we could have
hoped to work with.”

Despite being compared to the man behind _Attack Of The Clones_,
Maisel is clearly very excited about the project.

“People are interacting with these characters six inches from
them each time they play, and that creates an emotional
connection…It’s a global thing that’s something
I’ve never seen before. It will be exciting to expand [_Angry
Birds_] within Hollywood.”
