Those lovable little creatures are bringing the fun back this summer. The final trailer for Minions & Monsters goes into battle with the new poster!
Fresh off the worldwide blockbuster success of summer 2024’s funniest comedy, Despicable Me 4, Illumination expands its joyful animated universe. It does this with a riotous new chapter, featuring all-new characters in the biggest global animated franchise in history: Minions & Monsters.
This is the rambunctious, ridiculous, and totally true story of how the Minions conquered Hollywood and became movie stars. However, they lost everything. They unleashed monsters onto the world and then banded together to try to save the planet from the mayhem they had just created.
THE VOICE CAST
The acclaimed voice cast includes Academy Award winner Allison Janney and two-time Academy Award winner Christoph Waltz. It also features Academy Award winner Jeff Bridges and two-time Academy Award nominee Jesse Eisenberg. Additionally, Zoey Deutch (Nouvelle Vague) and Academy Award nominee and comedy iconoclast Trey Parker, co-creator of South Park, are part of the cast. The cast also includes Saturday Night Live alum Bobby Moynihan and Phil LaMarr (Futurama, King of the Hill).
BEHIND THE MOVIE
Minions & Monsters is directed by Academy Award nominee Pierre Coffin, a director of the first three Despicable Me films and the first Minions film. Coffin has also provided the voice for the Minions since their film debut in 2010. The film is written by Brian Lynch (Minions, The Secret Life of Pets films) and Pierre Coffin and is produced by Illumination’s Academy Award-nominated founder and CEO Chris Meledandri and by Bill Ryan (executive producer, The Super Mario Bros. Movie). The executive producer is Brian Lynch.
ICONIC ANIMATED CHARACTERS
More than 15 years after their creation, the Minions have become the most iconic animated characters of their generation. Globally recognized and beloved by fans of all ages, they have propelled Illumination’s Despicable Me and Minions to a global box office of more than $5.6 billion.
THOUGHTS
WOW! What an enjoyable trailer. It goes to show that Illumination is still in top form. The film looks to be a highly entertaining, comedic, family-friendly one that will lay down a marker for movie summer box office. You can already see that kids will love and adore it, and adults will get a good chuckle out of it, too. Plus, fans of the franchise will have great fun discovering the new Minions.
Minions & Monsters will cause more comedic mayhem in cinemas on July 1st.
