The year 2015 has been a fruitful year for Universal
Pictures India with two back-to-back 100 crore blockbusters ‘Fast and Furious
7’ and ‘Jurassic World’. The studio will now gear up for the release of the
much anticipated July release of the animated comedy ‘MInions’, a spin-off of
the ‘Despicable Me’ series. The universal popularity of the characters combined
with the introduction of a new franchise altogether is expected to take the box
office by storm worldover. Featuring voice overs by Sandra Bullock, Jon Hamm,
Michael Keaton, Allison Janney, Steve Coogan, Jennifer Saunders and Geoffrey
Rush, the film will see a pan India release on 10th July, 2015.
The story revolves around a Minion named Kevin who along
with 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 a thrilling journey
that ultimately leads them to their next potential master, Scarlet Overkill
(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 Minion kind from
annihilation.
Featuring a soundtrack of hit music from the ’60s, Minions
is directed by Pierre Coffin and Kyle Balda. Talking about the film,
co-director Pierre Coffin said, “This movie is not just for one audience. It’s
for a broad audience, but we tried to be witty about it, meaning that every
time there is a joke, we try putting multiple levels on it. That’s the magic of
animation. You can express everything for your characters with sheer physical
movements.”
