Despicable Me 4 fulfills Steve Carell’s franchise aspiration only two years after the actor made mention of it. From the outside looking in, it doesn’t appear that anymore could be asked of the Despicable Me franchise. With five widely-adored film entries, including the two spinoff prequels Minions and Minions: The Rise of Gru, the Despicable Me franchise has grossed nearly $5 billion worldwide and its IP has burgeoned into outside media, such as television specials, video games, and theme park attractions at Universal Studios in Florida, Hollywood, and Japan.
