The Minions are back with an exciting song performance in a brand new trailer for “Despicable Me 3.” Ever since the yellow-colored creature burst onto the screen in 2010 in the original film “Despicable Me,” the Minions are set to win the hearts of fans with their impressive look, entertaining dance performance, and sweet personality.
While the Minions featured a brief appearance of Gru in “Despicable Me,” the full-grown Gru and his team members will reunite for “Despicable 3” this June.

The clip begins with two Minions performing a dance number on the stage, while the third one sings the “American Idol” soundtrack.
It seems that they are competing for a prize at the reality TV show. We cannot get a lot of information from the trailer, other than that the tiny Minions are enjoying quality time together.
The story of “Despicable Me 3” revolves around a former child artist, Gru, who grows up in a wealthy family and becomes obsessed with the character he played in the 1980s. He is handsome, cheerful and noble, so gets trapped by his brother, Dru, who wants to defeat Gru and is jealous of his success.
“Despicable Me 3” will not have problems delivering the sort of entertainment we always expect from animated movies, especially when screenplay writers Cinco Paul and Ken Daurio are back in a full mood. This movie will be released in the United States on June 30, 2017, by Universal Pictures.
“Despicable Me 3” is the third film in the “Despicable Me” franchise, following 2013 hit “Despicable Me 2.” The film is directed by Pierre and features voices of Dana Gaier, Steve Carell, Jenny Slate, Steve Coogan, Trey Parker, Nev Scharrel, Miranda Cosgrove, Julie Andrews, and Kristen Wiig.
