Fun Facts: Steve Carell said that Despicable Me 3 may be his last film as the voice of Gru. However, Carell stated that if he was asked to do a cameo in any future Minion sequels, he happily would.

 

Agnes’s voice actress Elsie Fisher from the first and second movies was replaced by Nev Scharrel due to Fisher getting too old for the role

 

Since most of Trey Parker’s roles are basically for adults (mostly South Park), this is his first role in a movie targeted to children.

 

I don’t know if this is a coincidence or not, but, In Despicable Me 2, the villain El Macho is voiced by Benjamin Bratt, while in Despicable Me 3, the villain’s name is Balthazar Bratt.

 

Summary: After he and Lucy got fired from the Anti-Villian League, Gru discovered that he has a twin brother and they plan a heist to steal the pink diamond from former 80’s child star, Balthazar Bratt.

 

The Review: Another day, another great film in the franchise. Balthazar Bratt is certainly one of the best villians of the franchise. The minions are as funny as ever! Best minion movie of the franchise!
