Minions from the Despicable Me franchise surrounded by falling money
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT As Despicable Me 4 dominates the box office, it's easy to forget that the original film in the franchise suggested a very different origin story for the Minions — one that was eventually retconned by 2015's Minions. In addition to garnering a whopping $1.159 billion and cementing the Minions' place in pop culture, the 2015 movie reshaped the Despicable Me franchise's overall narrative.
2015's Minions Revealed The Origin Of The Minions The Minions Existed Long Before Seving Gru Close The strange, Tic Tac-shaped henchmen that wind up serving Gru in the Despicable Me and Minions movies actually have a very elaborate origin story. As chronicled in 2015's Minions, the titular creatures have existed since the beginning of time — though they weren't always the pill-shaped, big-eyed characters audiences know and love.
The Original Despicable Me Suggested Gru Created The Minions Before The Minions Became A Craze, Their Origin Story Was Simpler Close In the first Despicable Me film, a small moment teases that the Minions have a vastly different origin story from the one portrayed in the 2015 movie. A scene in the first film features a blink-and-you'll-miss-it diagram of the Minions in Gru's daughters' bedroom.
Why Despicable Me Retconned The Minions' Origin Story The Minions New Backstory Allows Them To Have Solo Adventures Close It's not clear why the Despicable Me franchise retconned the Minions original backstory. It's possible the diagram in Gru's house was more of a random background detail than something intended to reveal more about the Minions and Despicable Me timeline.
