The minions are the most adorable subordinates one can hope for. Gru and his minions rule everyone’s hearts all over the world, including China. The movie reached an important milestone at the Chinese box office with its latest collections, thereby beating Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse. The movie is doing well despite the release of movies like Longlegs, Twisters, and Marvel’s Deadpool & Wolverine.
The franchise crossed the $5 billion mark at the worldwide box office because of the contribution from the latest installment. There are also spin-off movies on the Minions. The 2024 movie was expected to reach the one-billion-dollar mark at the global box office but seems unlikely at this point with the storm that has been brought by MCU‘s Deadpool & Wolverine. However, it is still managing to do well and may surprise the audience, too, by earning the predicted numbers. Keep scrolling for more.
