Red J. Bird (commonly known as Red) is a resident of Bird Island and the main character within the Angry Birds film series.
Appearance[]
Red is a medium-sized red bird with bushy black eyebrows and short red head feathers and black tail feathers.
Personality[]
Red is one of the only "angry birds" on Bird Island. He was so fed up with the birds on Bird Island that he moved his house to the furthest point of the island away from the main village.[note 1] Red gets fed up with other residents very easily and doesn't hesitate to push his weight around others.
The angriest of them all. Following the events of the first film, Red is the undisputed hero of Bird Island, a badge of honor he wears proudly. But don't let the heroic exterior fool you. Red is still different from the other birds and though improved is still lacking some of the basic social skills needed to fully connect with other birds. And true to the form, he masks his discomfort with sarcasm and an aloof attitude.
Media appearances[]
Movies[]
The Angry Birds Movie[]
Red didn't have much luck in life. From childhood, peers laughed at his eyebrows and the fact that he was an orphan, which made young Red very upset and angry. Because of the accumulated anger, he developed uncontrollable fits of anger, which have become quite common for him. In the end, the rest of the birds get bored of this, which is why they arrange a trial for Red. The sentence becomes an obligation to attend Anger Management courses taught by Matilda.
After arriving on the island of Leonard, who showed the pigs in the best light, only Red began to smell something wrong in him. He tried many times to warn the birds of the danger, but they did not listen to Red. But when the pigs stole the eggs, Red led the birds and defeated the enemies. In addition, he personally rescued The Blues from the clutches of the King Pig. (The Angry Birds Movie)
The Angry Birds Movie 2[]
Three years later, Red got a lot of fame and since then he devoted every day to fighting pigs. However, when both islands were attacked by Zeta and the pigs offered a truce to unite against a common enemy, glory began to fade from Red, and he soon began to feel lonely again, because now no one was interested in his merits in the ended fighting pigs. His closest friends Bomb and Chuck decided to take him to a blitz club to find a match for the surly bird. There he met Silver, who, due to her rudeness, immediately rejected him when she began asking him questions about him to see if they were compatible by the formula. The test came back negative, and Red went home alone. There he fell into a depression, and in this state he was discovered by Leonard, who came to negotiate a union. Red was very distrustful of the leader of the pigs, literally killing him a couple of times. However, the king was adamant: he explained that they needed to unite against Zeta in order to repel the attack on both islands. Red realizes that this will be a good way to regain his former glory, and eventually agrees, along the way starting to argue with the pig who is actually the leader of the operation. Together, they recruit Bomb, Chuck, Mighty Eagle, Silver (much to Red's annoyance; however, he couldn't refuse, as Silver turned out to be Chuck's sister) and Courtney. They begin to make a plan, and at a visual presentation of the plan, Red and Leonard continue to squabble until Silver seizes the initiative.
Later, they are about to leave in Leonard's huge submarine. Along the way, Red tells the people of Bird Island that there is nothing to worry about and that evacuation is not needed. On the boat, they meet the genius inventor Garry, who introduces many of the gadgets he has designed, which later turn out to be useless. Red angrily criticizes the pig's inventions, but Silver tries to calm him down by trying to teach Red about teamwork.
When the team arrives at Eagle Island, Red discovers that his comrades already have a plan that they made without him. Angered, he separates from the team and goes to storm Zeta's base alone. Silver goes after him in an attempt to dissuade him, and later decides to go with him. Together they get to the mouth of a long-extinct volcano, where Zeta's base is located. Red notices the eagles' weapon power cord, which he decides to unplug, and recklessly throws himself down on the untethered cable, but Silver saves him by tying himself to the other end and jumping with him. After Red's failed attempt to zip-line to the other side of the base (he still has to accept Silver's help) and after they almost let themselves be discovered when Red dropped his feather down (Silver had to catch it by jumping down), they still manage to cut the cable. However, it turns out to be a microwave cord and the two are caught, with Red being knocked out by an unusually muscular guard.
Waking up, Red finds himself frozen to an air mattress in a room where Zeta explains to him and Silver (who is also a prisoner) her plan to take over the two islands. Specifically, she attacks Bird Island, and Red realizes he made a mistake by not telling the residents to evacuate. Silver manages to free himself and Red, and later the rest of the team reunites with them. They develop a new plan, and according to this plan, Red is sent along with Silver to neutralize the device from the inside. Along the way, they begin to sympathize more and more with each other. Together, Red and Silver fall into one of Zeta's ice balls in order to destroy the weapon with this ball. Just before the collision, they join hands.
However, a flaw in Silver's plan is discovered when they go the wrong way, and the entire team is captured. But the situation was eventually resolved thanks to the unexpected return of the Mighty Eagle, Red's suggestion to stop the weapon's projectiles with a superthread, and the efforts of Chuck and Silver. Zeta travels with Mighty Eagle and her daughter to Bird Island and a wedding takes place where everyone praises Red again. However, seeing that his girlfriend Silver did not receive well-deserved applause, he draws the attention of the crowd to her, and Red still receives well-deserved fame. Later, they decide to retire to a high cliff for a romantic picnic. Unfortunately, they are interrupted by Chuck. (The Angry Birds Movie 2)
