Trailer for Minions

The first full length trailer has arrived for the Despicable Me spin-off Minions. The funny little yellow guys immediately stole the show in those films and became a sensation. Their own franchise seemed like a no-brainer for Universal. Among the voice actors in the film are Sandra Bullock and Jon Hamm. Minions is slated to release July 10, 2015.

The Minions’ story begins at the dawn of time. Starting as single-celled yellow organisms, Minions evolve through the ages, perpetually serving the most despicable of masters. After accidentally killing off so many of them—from T. rex to Napoleon—the Minions find themselves without a master to serve and fall into a deep depression. But one Minion named Kevin has a plan, and he—alongside teenage rebel Stuart and lovable little Bob—ventures out into the world to find a new evil boss for his brethren to follow. The trio embarks upon an adventure that ultimately leads them to their next potential master, Scarlet Overkill (Academy Award winner Sandra Bullock), the world’s first-ever female super-villain. They travel from frigid Antarctica to 1960s New York City, ending in mod London, where they must face their biggest challenge to date: saving all of Minionkind…from annihilation.
