Twentieth Century Fox's RIO 2, featuring Broadway diva Kristin Chenoweth and a flock of top actors and musical talents, will hit theaters on April 11. Click below for a first listen to Chenoweth's character -- the poison dart frog 'Gabi' -- singing her love song called "Poisonous Love" to criminal mastermind 'Nigel'!

Returning to RIO 2, a world rich with grandeur, character, color and music are Anne Hathaway, Jesse Eisenberg, Jemaine Clement, will.i.am, Tracy Morgan, George Lopez, Leslie Mann, Rodrigo Santoro, Brazilian singer Bebel Gilberto, Jake T. Austin, and Jamie Foxx. Joining the RIO 2 team are Oscar nominee Andy Garcia, Grammy winner Bruno Mars, Emmy/Tony winner Kristin Chenoweth, Oscar/Emmy/Tony/Grammy winner Rita Moreno, The Hunger Games' Amandla Stenberg, singer/actress Rachel Crow, Looper's Pierce Gagnon, and TODAY news anchor Natalie Morales.

Carlos Saldanha, who was inspired to create RIO based upon his experiences growing up in that city, is back as director, as are producers John C. Donkin and Bruce Anderson.

In RIO 2 we find Blu, Jewel and their three kids living the perfect domesticated life in that magical city. When Jewel decides the kids need to learn to live like real birds, she insists the family venture into the Amazon. As Blu tries to fit in with his new neighbors, he worries he may lose Jewel and the kids to The Call of the wild.
