Angel Studios and Shining Isle Productions’ hit animated series THE WINGFEATHER SAGA added three new cast members to Season 3.
According to a press release from Angel, David Oyelowo (SELMA, SILO), Tantoo Cardinal (KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON, DANCE WITH WOLVES) and Henry Witcher (THE WILD ROBOT) will join the cast, which already features “returning fan favorites” like Jodi Benson, Kevin McNally, Alkaio Thiele and Matthew Rhys.
“I have been a fan of David’s work for many years and we are thrilled to have him join WINGFEATHER. And we have a very special new character that Tantoo is voicing, whom we cannot wait to introduce to our fans. Each of these exceptional performers brings incredible depth, emotion, and authenticity to their roles,” J. Chris Wall, executive producer and showrunner, said. “Their voices help bring the Ice Prairies of Season 3 to life with beauty and power, and we could not be more excited to share their work with audiences around the world.”

The beloved animated show chronicles the adventures of the Igiby family “as they discover secrets of their family history, flee the evil Fangs of Dang, seek their place in the world, and make a stand against the mysterious ruler, Gnag the Nameless.”
“They will need their special gifts and all the love of their noble mother and ex-pirate grandfather to survive the venomous Fangs, sea dragons, flabbits, and (gulp) toothy cows!” a description of the show reads.
Jordan Harmon, Angel Studios president, loves THE WINGFEATHER SAGA’s family-centered themes.
“As a parent, my wife and I are always looking for shows that are creative, entertaining, and inspire wonder,” he said in the press release. “THE WINGFEATHER SAGA has been a favorite for my entire family since the first episode. We know that The Journey Begins will open the door for families to jump in to the new season and become fully engaged in this amazing adventure series.”
THE WINGFEATHER SAGA Season 3 is set to debut on Nov. 12, streaming exclusively on Angel.
Season 3 will dive “deeper into the world of Aerwiar as the Wingfeather family faces its greatest trials yet. Separated from his family, Janner journeys with his friend Maraly across the perilous Stony Mountains toward the frozen Ice Prairies, pursued by monsters and things best left in the shadows. Beneath the tundra lies the fabled city of Kimera, a place of both hope and danger, while Kalmar, betrayed and captured, endures imprisonment in the dungeons of the Phoob Islands. Across these frozen frontiers, the family’s courage and loyalty will be tested as a new evil rises.”
THE WINGFEATHER SAGA is a family-friendly hit that is perfect to sit down and watch together. You can catch the first two seasons on the Angel app.
