New Trailer for Despicable Me 4 Unveils Fresh Adventures and New Characters

After a seven-year hiatus, Gru and his mischievous Minions are back in action with the release of the highly anticipated trailer for Illumination’s Despicable Me 4. Set to reignite the frenzy of Minions mayhem, the upcoming film promises an electrifying blend of adventure and humor, marking a bold new chapter in the beloved animated franchise.

Following the immense success of 2022’s Minions: The Rise of Gru, which amassed nearly $1 billion worldwide, Despicable Me 4 thrusts audiences into a whirlwind of chaos as Gru, voiced by Oscar nominee Steve Carrell, navigates the challenges of fatherhood with his wife Lucy (Kristen Wiig) and their trio of daughters – Margo (Miranda Cosgrove), Edith (Dana Gaier), and Agnes (Madison Polan). Adding to the family dynamic is the introduction of Gru Jr., a mischievous addition intent on testing his father’s patience.

However, familial bliss takes a backseat when Gru faces off against a formidable new adversary, Maxime Le Mal (voiced by Emmy winner Will Ferrell), and his enigmatic partner Valentina (Emmy nominee Sofia Vergara), forcing the family to go on the run.

Boasting a star-studded cast, the film introduces a host of fresh characters voiced by Joey King, Emmy winner Stephen Colbert, and Chloe Fineman, alongside returning favorites such as Pierre Coffin as the iconic voice of the Minions and Steve Coogan as Silas Ramsbottom.

Directed by Chris Renaud, co-creator of the Minions and Oscar nominee for Despicable Me and The Secret Life of Pets, Despicable Me 4 promises to deliver a rollercoaster ride of action and comedy, underscored by Illumination’s trademark subversive humor.

With a screenplay penned by Emmy-winning creator Mike White (White Lotus) and Despicable Me veteran Ken Daurio, and produced by Illumination’s visionary founder and CEO Chris Meledandri and Brett Hoffman, Despicable Me 4 is set to captivate audiences once again with its irresistible blend of heartwarming family moments and uproarious escapades.

Prepare for a new era of villainous antics and Minion madness when Despicable Me 4 hits theaters, promising an unforgettable cinematic experience for audiences of all ages.
