Rovio Animation’s “The Angry Birds Movie” is set to get a theatrical release in China on May 20.
The May 20 date is also shared by the China releases of “The Divergent Series: Allegiant” and “Southpaw,” which was co-produced by China’s Wanda Pictures.
It will be marketed and brought to the cinemas throughout China by 1905 Pictures, the movie offshoot of China Central Television, which previously was involved with the China release of “Transformers 4.”
The slot gives it a day-and-date outing with the North American release, while several other international territories release it on May 12.
