DESPICABLE ME
On Monday 11 October, Leicester Square was buzzing with excitement as the stars of Universal Pictures' animated family blockbuster DESPICABLE ME walked the red carpet for the film's European premiere. At the Empire Cinema, comedy legend Steve Carell was joined by co-stars Russell Brand and Miranda Cosgrove, where they signed autographs and posed for photographs alongside a host of despicable Minions (the film villain's tiny helpers) who danced along the red carpet entertaining the crowds of adoring fans.
"DESPICABLE ME" is directed by Oscar®-nominee CHRIS RENAUD (Annie Award-winning short No Time for Nuts, director of upcoming Dr. Seuss' The Lorax) & PIERRE COFFIN (Pat et Stanley). The film is produced by CHRIS MELEDANDRI (Ice Age, Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who!), JANET HEALY and JOHN COHEN. Leading the talented behind-the-scenes team are editors PAMELA ZIEGENHAGEN-SHEFLAND (Open Season, The Emperor's New Groove) and GREGORY PERLER (Enchanted, Wallace & Gromit in The Curse of the Were-Rabbit), as well as production designer YARROW CHENEY and art director ERIC GUILLON.
DESPICABLE ME is released by Universal Pictures and will open nationwide on October 15, 2010
