Editor's Note

From Gru’s moon-stealing debut in Despicable Me to the banana-fueled chaos of the Minions, the Despicable Me Collection turns villainy into family-sized spectacle. Illumination and Universal Pictures built a $5.6 billion global animated phenomenon around a reformed supervillain, three unforgettable girls Margo, Edith, and Agnes and a yellow army of scene-stealing mischief-makers. Across theatrical sequels, shorts, and Minions spin-offs, this franchise blends slapstick, heart, and blockbuster scale into an irresistible saga of redemption, rivalry, found family, wild invention, and madcap mayhem.
