BLACKPINK’s JISOO is preparing “Sun Showers”, an original song for “The Angry Birds Movie 3”. She co-wrote the track, which is expected to feature in the animated film and its upcoming trailer. The artwork will also introduce a personal creation: Shumon, a small character she first drew in middle school, years before her debut as a K-pop performer with the group.
A drawing from JISOO’s school years will become part of the artwork for “Sun Showers”, her new song for “The Angry Birds Movie 3”. The character is Shumon, a small dustball-like creature she created before beginning her professional music career. Its inclusion gives the film-related release a connection to an earlier creative interest, bringing something she imagined as a student into the visual presentation of a new recording.
The singer discussed her involvement in the production in an announcement made public on November 3. “Sun Showers” is an original composition intended for the film and expected to appear in its forthcoming trailer. At the time of publication, no specific release date for the song had been announced. The news establishes her contribution to the soundtrack without providing a complete schedule for when audiences can hear the finished recording.
JISOO is credited as a co-writer, rather than the sole composer. That distinction is part of what has been announced, while full information about the other writers, production and recording remains unavailable. The completed song has not yet been presented publicly in full. There is therefore a confirmed creative role for the singer, but not enough information to describe the entire team or the final arrangement.
Explaining why she wanted to take part, she described her affection for the way the “Angry Birds” films combine colourful characters with humour and emotion. Those qualities provided a starting point for her songwriting. She wanted the music to reflect the playful, bright atmosphere of the film, approaching the track through the world of the story rather than simply placing an unrelated recording within its soundtrack.
Her stated aim was to make a fun, feel-good song that would encourage people to smile and dance. That is a description of her creative intention, rather than an assessment of a finished recording already available to listeners. JISOO also expressed the hope that audiences would enjoy hearing it when they watch the film over the holiday period. The trailer may offer an earlier introduction, although its timing had not been specified in the announcement.
Shumon is the announcement’s most personal detail. JISOO drew the character while she was in middle school, well before debuting with BLACKPINK. Its appearance on the artwork gives that old creation a new purpose as part of the identity of a song. It also brings together two kinds of creative work: the music she is known for and a character she first imagined before becoming a performer.
The character has been described as a little dustball creature, but further confirmed details of the artwork’s design have not been presented. There is also no announcement that Shumon will appear within the film itself. Its confirmed role concerns the cover for “Sun Showers”. Treating the drawing as a new character in the animated story would go beyond what has actually been disclosed about the collaboration.
For the singer, creating a song for an animated production involves more than performing material selected by someone else. She has contributed to writing it, using the film’s atmosphere and characters as part of the brief. The personal artwork detail sits alongside that songwriting role, giving her involvement a connection to both the sound and the visual presentation of the release, while the finished music remains to be heard.
“The Angry Birds Movie 3” continues the adventures of characters first made familiar through the “Angry Birds” games. Directed by John Rice, the new story centres on Red as he deals with fatherhood while also trying to save the world. Its voice cast includes Jason Sudeikis, Josh Gad, Emma Myers, Rachel Bloom, Danny McBride and Keke Palmer, with Lily James, Tim Robinson and other performers also taking part.
The film’s official listing gives December 23, 2026 as its cinema release date. JISOO’s involvement follows her recent solo songs “Click”, released in September, and “Addicted”, which followed in October. “Sun Showers” has a different destination, having been created specifically for an animated film. No separate music video, complete recording credits or digital release timetable had been confirmed in the announcement, leaving those practical details open.
The next presentation of “Sun Showers” should give listeners a clearer sense of its music. For now, the confirmed outline is an original song shaped around the film’s playful world, co-written by the BLACKPINK singer, with artwork featuring a drawing from her school years. Shumon’s journey from a middle-school idea to a record cover is the personal link JISOO has chosen to share ahead of this new recording’s release.
