8** In the Italian dub, Red is voiced by comedian Maccio Capatonda, Chuck by radio host Alessandro Cattelan and Matilda by actress Chiara Francini.
9* ChildrenVoicingChildren: With one notable exception (Ava Acres voicing Timothy at the start of the movie), most of the young, named birds are voiced by children of matching gender:
10** Bobby, the young purple bird who witnessed Red assaulting Billy the Sign, was voiced by Max Charles, known for portraying young Peter Parker in [[Film/TheAmazingSpiderManSeries ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' film duology]], another [[Creator/SonyPictures Sony]] venture.
11** Dylan was voiced by Vincent Oswald.
12** Samantha Cohen voices a hatchling named [[AsHerself after herself]].
13** Young Red in a flashback to Red's past is voiced by [=Aidan McGraw=].
14** The Blues are all voiced by boys, Pierce Gagnon, Noah Schnapp and Owen Wilder Vaccaro. Gagnon also starred in another animated bird film, ''WesternAnimation/Rio2''.
15* CrossDressingVoices: Creator/AvaAcres voicing Timothy, who's a boy.
16* CowboyBebopAtHisComputer: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d77Mm4McQyw This video featuring comparisons between game and movie characters]] thinks that Cyrus appeared in the games and Leonard is King Pig.
17* DawsonCasting: Creator/JoshGad and Creator/KateMckinnon probably had to sound like teenagers to voice Chuck and Stella, respectively.
18* MetaCasting: A {{Subversion}} of this trope. Creator/SeanPenn is (in)famously known for his HairTriggerTemper personality, so it's no surprise that he was cast as one of the titular birds. The catch is that the bird Penn voices is Terence, a.k.a ''the one bird who doesn't have a single line of dialogue'' and (aside from a couple of grunts) ''is almost always silent''.
19* TheOtherMarty: Before the film's release Kallan Holley was reported to voice Young Red in the film, when the film actually released, [=Aidan McGraw=] voiced Red's younger self instead.
20* MissingTrailerScene: A number of scenes that were in the trailers and TV spots did not make it into the film:
21** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRsZkthHnek One of note is that Red doesn't actually pull out a list of notes regarding Timothy]]. Incidentally, if this is to be believed, that makes Edward even [[AbusiveParents MORE]] of a dick because this means he hired Red as a clown EVEN THOUGH it was explicitly stated that Timothy does not like clowns.
22* PlayingAgainstType: Creator/BillHader, who previously voiced good guys like [[WesternAnimation/CloudyWithAChanceOfMeatballs Flint]] [[WesternAnimation/CloudyWithAChanceOfMeatballs2 Lockwood]] and [[WesternAnimation/InsideOut Fear]], is voicing the BigBad King Mudbeard.
23* ShortRunInPeru: The movie premiered in the UK and Finland a week before it was shown in the US, whilst France was the first to premiere the film - nine days prior.
24* TimeShiftedActor: Although Creator/JasonSudeikis voices Red in the present, [=Aidan McGraw=] voices his younger self instead.
