Despicable
Me Prequel Coming Soon
In 2010 Despicable Me became
the third biggest opening grossing for an animated film. The movie made a total
of $543,010,705 worldwide. Its sequel, Despicable Me 2, was the next big
thing when it came out in 2013. The sequel made a total of $918,557,955
worldwide. This was the most profitable film in the hundred year history of
Universal Studios. It is obvious that this series is very popular and had
nothing but good reviews. One thing that all Despicable Me fans adore is
the minions. They are the protagonist’s main sidekicks that are absolutely
hilarious. Where did these oval shaped cute little creatures come from? This
question will be answered in the newest prequel to Despicable Me, known
as The Minions. The release date was announced to be July 10th,
2015.
This movie will consist of mostly
minions, and the main character Gru will not participate. So far what we know
from the movie is that it will show how the minions were created from yellow
single celled organisms. They were existent since the beginning of time to
serve the most ambitious evil villains as their only purpose. After all of
their masters were destroyed, including Dracula and T. Rex, they decide to
start a new life in Antarctica. By the 1960s, the minions become in a state of
depression, due to their lack of masters. Kevin and two other minions set out
on a journey to find a new one. Their adventures eventually lead them to a
villain convention. They take interest in Scarlet Overkill, whose goal is to be
the first female super villain, and to dominate the world. The whole movie will
be about how they compete to become the henchmen for her.
After seeing the first two movies,
people can predict that The Minions is probably going to become a big
hit. Despicable Me fans are probably going to be very excited to see how
the minions came to be. A lot of people who watched the series liked it only
because of the minions, so those people would love to watch this movie.
Everyone will just hope for this movie to become a success.
