Despicable Me Cast & Character Guide

The Despicable Me cast is full of A-list stars playing its lovable animated characters. The movie revolves around a supervillain named Gru, who adopts three girls in a bid to steal the Moon and ends up feeling more fulfilled by fatherhood than evildoing. Despicable Me was a big enough hit to launch a blockbuster franchise. Gru became an endearing character that fans would follow in multiple sequels, and the Minions, introduced in the first of the Despicable Me movies, have become a cultural sensation, headlining their own spinoff movies. Those now-classic characters were brought to life by a fantastic cast of voice actors.
