Meet Gru’s brother twin brother, Dru, in the new Despicable Me 3 trailer! Check out the player below to see what’s been happening with the Minions, Gru (Steve Carell), Lucy (Kristen Wiig), Margo (Miranda Cosgrove), Edith (Dana Gaier) and Agnes (Nev Scharrel) since we last saw them back in 2013. We haven’t gotten a new Despicable Me 3 trailer since last December. In that one, we met the spiky-haired super villain in shoulder pads named Balthazar Bratt, played by Emmy, Tony and Grammy Award winner Trey Parker (co-creator of Comedy Central’s long running hit South Park and the Broadway smash The Book of Mormon). Balthazar is a former child star who’s grown up to become obsessed with the character he played in the ’80s.
