Excellent news for aunts who love Facebook memes!
Universal Pictures is set to unveil a sequel to the animated hit, Minions. Originally known as Minions 2, the sequel has now officially been dubbed Minions: the Rise of Gru. Minions, the little bean-like yellow critters first seen in 2010's Despicable Me, have popped up in every subsequent sequel. This includes Despicable Me 2, Despicable Me 3, and their first solo go-round in 2015.
As the title suggests, Minions: The Rise of Gru will be the "origin story" of original Despicable Me baddie/protagonist Gru (originally played by Steve Carell) and follow the Minions first encounter with young Felonious Gru.
