But the family is forced to go on the run when facing off against a new nemesis Maxime Le Mal and his femme fatale girlfriend Valentina.

The latest film in the animated franchise features the returning voice talents of Steve Carrell (Gru), Kristen Wiig (Lucy), Miranda Cosgrove (Margo), Dana Gaier (Edith), and Pierre Coffin (the minions). Despicable Me 4 also features Madison Polan (Agnes), Will Ferrell (Maxime Le Mal), and Sofia Vergara (Valentina). Joey King, Stephen Colbert, and Chloe Fineman also voice additional characters.

Despicable Me 4 comes from Oscar-nominated director Chris Renaud and co-director Patrick Delage. The screenplay comes from Emmy winner Mike White and Ken Daurio, who previously worked on other films in the franchise.
