This article is part of a directory: Despicable Me 4: Release Date, Cast, Story, Trailer & Everything We Know PreviousGru & His Son Rob An Old Lady In First Despicable Me 4 Footage Shown At CinemaCon Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Despicable Me 4 director Chris Renaud has revealed why nobody in the movie has aged since the last installment, explaining the approach to the characters in the latest film.
It’s funny, it comes up a lot. I don’t think the audience cares. First off, to your point, we could do a story about Margo being 18 and going to college… but we’ve taken a The Simpsons approach that nobody ages. They’re frozen in time. I’ve seen the film with an audience quite a few times and I don’t feel people are coming out and seeing it as an issue, asking, ‘Why didn’t Margo grow up?’
With the upcoming Despicable Me 4 keeping its characters the same age as when they started, it keeps the franchise familiar even to those who have been watching the movies since they started coming out. By continuously delivering stories with characters who are the same age, it allows for the movies to progressively add more ideas without being required to make its heroes older. It also means that, if future movies do see the main cast age, it would only be done to service the story at hand.
