‘Minions & Monsters’ Final Trailer Goes Old Hollywood

Published

on

Illumination’s “Minions & Monsters” is nearly here.

The latest installment in the long-running “Despicable Me” franchise premieres as the opening movie at this year’s Annecy International Animation Film Festival on June 21, before hitting theaters on July 1. (Expect every child you know to be running through the sprinkles on July 4 weekend while speaking Minion-y gibberish.)

The latest trailer will reacquaint you with the upcoming madness. Watch it below.

Set in the 1920s, the film features the Minions attempting to make it in Hollywood. In order to do so, they create a horror movie concept and then decide to fill the movie with actual monsters. What could go wrong?

The trailer suggests a winning combination of Damien Chazelle’s “Babylon” and echoes of Lovecraftian horror, with a winning little goblin guy as an adorable new addition to the crew.

Trey Parker, Jesse Eisenberg, Christoph Waltz, Jeff Bridges, Allison Janney, Zooey Deutch, Bobby Moynihan and Phil LaMarr provide voices, along with Pierre Coffin, who voices the Minions and who directed and co-wrote (with Bryan Lynch) “Minions & Monsters.” Coffin also directed the first three “Despicable Me” movies, the first “Minions” movie and has voiced the Minions in every entry in the franchise. The last entry, 2024’s “Despicable Me 4,” similarly debuted at that year’s Annecy.

Illumination is coming off a very big year, with “The Super Mario Galaxy Movie,” produced alongside Nintendo, closing in on $900 million worldwide.

“Minions & Monsters” is one of a handful of big animated features opening this summer, along with “Toy Story 5,” “PAW Patrol: The Dino Movie” and the long-awaited animation/live-action hybrid “Coyote vs. Acme.”

“Minions & Monsters” opens on July 1.

Russo Brothers On The Hulk Appearing On ‘Avengers: Doomsday’: “Certainly Involved In The Story That Revolves Around Doom”

Published

on

Many questions surround Avengers: Doomsday, and one major one is whether Mark Ruffalo will reprise his role as Bruce Banner.

The actor recently appeared in Spider-Man: Brand New Day as Banner, and the Russo Brothers teased that the Hulk is “certainly involved” in the story around Doctor Doom.

“I think [what] we could say is, [Banner] is certainly involved in the story that revolves around Doom,” Joe Russo told Empire Online. “We will not confirm nor deny his appearance in Doomsday.”

Anthony Russo added, “The farthest we can go is to say, there are characters and actors who have not been announced, who are a part of Doomsday.”

Avengers: Doomsday is set to be released on December 18 as part of Phase 6 of the MCU. The film follows 2019’s Avengers: Endgame, which the Russos also directed.

Avengers: Doomsday will feature different groups of heroes from different universes, including the Avengers, the Wakandans from Black Panther, the Thunderbolts (known as the New Avengers) from Earth-616, the Fantastic Four from Earth-828, and the original X-Men.

In a recent interview, the Russo Brothers said they started filming Avengers: Doomsday without a finished script.

“We’re improvisation-based, rehearsal-based directors,” Joe Russo told AP. “We like to see what the actors bring to the characters, and sometimes you don’t get the actors until a few days or few weeks before you shoot them. And a lot of the time, that’s when the magic happens.”
