Minions | May 2, 2026

The story of Universal Pictures and Illumination Entertainment’s Minions begins at the dawn of time.

Following the 2022 summer blockbuster phenomenon of Illumination’s Minions: The Rise of Gru, which earned almost $1 billion worldwide, the biggest global animated franchise in history now begins a new chapter as Gru and Lucy and their girls —Margo, Edith, and Agnes —welcome a new member to the Gru family, Gru Jr., who is intent on tormenting his dad.
