Written by Brian Lynch, Minions: The Rise of Gru serves as a continuation of the 2015 film Minions, this time focusing on the Minions (Pierre Coffin) during their first encounter with a young Felonious Gru (Steve Carell), a 12-year-old with a dream to become the world’s greatest supervillain.
Universal Pictures has dropped a clever and fun new Minions: The Rise of Gru promo for its forthcoming animated sequel, featuring the return of Steve Carell as Gru.
The promo features Carell’s Gru and the Minions as they parody the iconic opening credits of the popular sitcom The Office.
A fanboy of a supervillain supergroup known as the Vicious 6, Gru hatches a plan to become evil enough to join them.
