The world's favorite supervillain-turned-Anti-Villain-League-agent, Gru, returns for a bold new era of Minions mayhem in Illumination's DESPICABLE ME 4. Gru, Lucy and their girls welcome a new member to the family - Gru Jr. - who is intent on tormenting his dad, as a new nemesis shows up and forces the family to go on the run. This latest blockbuster chapter in the biggest global animated franchise in history is packed with nonstop action, filled with Illumination's signature subversive humor, and new dynamics with the introduction of a questionably charming team - The Mega Minions!
