Although Illumination Entertainment’s latest offering Sing has not hit cinemas yet the studio is already whetting our appetites for their next release. The company’s most successful series Despicable Me will release its third installment next summer and its second is with us.
The trailer shows super villain turned super dad Gru up to his usual tricks but now with new wife Lucy by his side. The duo are both agents for the Anti-Villain League and set off on a new mission. Their mission brings them in contact with Balthazar Bratt, a former child star who commits crimes in the style of 80’s icons. This particular trailer shows him robbing a ship to Michael Jackson’s Bad as Gru and Lucy attempt to capture him.
As with the previous Despicable outings, and spin-off Minions, the film has an over the top and hilarious villain, Balthazar Bratt. Bratt is voiced by funny man and South Park co-creator Trey Parker who joins returning cast members Steve Carrell, Kirsten Wiig, and Russell Brand.
Despicable Me 3 is out later this year!
