Though he had been working in children’s animation for years, director Pierre Coffin accidentally ended up as the voice actor for all of the minions in Despicable Me,Despicable Me 2, and now, Minions. After helping create the now iconic look of the lovable henchmen for the original Despicable Me, he recorded a sample of what the minions might sound like for the movie’s producer. To his surprise, he was immediately cast in the part—which turned into more than 100 parts over time.
Pierre Coffin’s past work has included animation, directing, and voice acting. Once the minions became a cultural phenomenon, Coffin and the other creators of the first two Despicable Me movies decided it was time to come up with a backstory for the beloved creatures. They created Minions to explain who and what these mischievous little creatures are and where they come from. Minions is a prequel, set in a time before the minions became known to audiences as Gru’s henchmen. The story mostly takes place in 1968. It follows the three main characters, Kevin, Stuart, and Bob, in their quest for a new master after the minions’ series of well-meaning mistakes leave them leaderless.
