Minions, stay calm: The new trailer for "Despicable Me 3" is officially here!

The flick introduces us to a brand-new yet strangely familiar character. But before we meet him, we see the current status of Gru's happy blended family -- and it's not a pretty picture. Gru's unemployed, the house is falling apart (as per usual), and his girls are even trying to sell of their toys for cash.

Enter Dru, Gru's long-lost twin brother! While they share the same face and voice (Steve Carell), these two live very different lives: Dru is a millionaire who lives in a gold-plated mansion.

"It's nice, I guess, sure. I'm not really into things," Dru says modestly as he flings open double-doors to reveal his luxury car collection.

In total contrast to grumpy Gru, Dru is perky, blonde-haired and clothed all in white -- even down to the scarf. Apparently, perpetually cold necks run in the family.

Dru has an enticing offer on the table: "Are you ready to continue the family tradition, you and me?"

We'll have to wait to find out, but if the latex super-suits are any indication, adventure is coming!

"Despicable Me 3" hits theaters this summer.

  • Exclusive-Blackstone eyes 20% stake in India Haldiram's snacks at $8 billion valuation, sources say

    Blackstone has dropped plans to acquire a majority stake in the snacks business of India's Haldiram's but is now discussing purchase of a 20% stake at a valuation of $8 billion, which is still a sticking point, sources told Reuters on Thursday. Haldiram's, which Euromonitor International estimates has a share of almost 13% of India's $6.2-billion market for savoury snacks, has more than 150 restaurants, but many foreign investors are salivating over its popular snacks business. In May Reuters reported a consortium led by Blackstone was eyeing a stake of 75% in the business and had made a non-binding bid, but those talks did not materialise as Haldiram's is no longer keen to sell a big stake, said the sources, who sought anonymity as the discussions are private.
