The Rise of Gru is part of the spin-off series that came after the 2015 movie Minions. It came out in 2022. Meanwhile, the latest release has collected 9.4 times the film’s production budget at the worldwide box office. Recently, the fourth installment became the second highest-grossing movie in the franchise at the US box office. The new cast members who joined the 2022 animated feature’s voice cast included Michelle Yeoh, Taraji P Henson, and Alan Arkin. It was reportedly the fifth-highest-grossing film of the year.
Gru and the Minions grossed a solid $5.6 million overseas on its 13th weekend across over 82 locations. Despicable Me 4 only dropped 35.6% from last weekend, reaching $580.6 million at the international box office.
