Minions 3 has been confirmed with a new release date. Following the success of the first film in 2010, Illumination Entertainment's Despicable Me franchise has grown into a major hit. The franchise expanded to new heights with the release of the spinoff films Minions in 2015 and Minions: The Rise of Gru in 2022. A prospective Minions 3 was, however, a question mark. Despicable Me 4, which opened earlier this month, sees the return of the yellow henchmen and Steve Carell as Gru.
Variety now says that Minions 3 will be released on June 30, 2027, continuing the franchise's summer release pattern. Brian Lynch, who penned the original Minions, will write the forthcoming sequel, which will be directed by Pierre Coffin, a veteran of the franchise. No story information for the film have been revealed.
In the meanwhile, Illumination's latest animated feature, Despicable Me 4 has received mixed reviews, but it has gone on to become a huge box office success since its release in early July, grossing $255 million worldwide. The attractions of the yellow minions and Carell's Gru may no longer be working on critics, but the response to the latest picture suggests that family audiences are not yet weary. Although Minions 3 is still three years away, there is reason to believe that it will not be the last edition in the popular Illumination franchise.
