I only saw about half of the first Despicable Me but what I saw I enjoyed. The minions were hilarious and it was different to see Steve Carrell as an animated bad guy. That a film will have a sequel after grossing $543 million worldwide is as inevitable as people pointing out how hot Tom Brady's wife is.
What was not inevitable was Tony Montana joining up for the sequel. Universal Pictures and Illumination has just announced that Oscar winner Al Pacino will be joining the cast of Despicable Me 2. Nothing is known about the role other than he will being playing opposite of Steve Carrell's character of Gru.
This is actually the first animated film that Pacino has ever been a part of. Let's hope he tones it down a bit to make a family friendly film. I've heard he's already referred to the minions (seen in pic above) as "f**king cock-a-row-chez." Just kidding.
I hope you're not kidding.
ReplyDeleteAlso I hope there's a scene where Pacino checks his bank account balance over the phone.
