The new "Despicable Me 3" trailer indicates that Gru has a brother, Dru and the whole movie will be about sibling rivalry, fighting villainous characters, and more. The new teaser from Universal Pictures and Illumination Entertainment showed that Dru and Gru will reunite after a long time.

According to Deadline, "Despicable Me 3" follows the "What's the Difference," storyline from Dr. Dre, Eminem, and X-Zibit. Gru (Steve Carell) will face certain situations tempting him to become what he was previously - a super villain. The initial trailer of the flick introduced a new character, Balthazar Bratt (Trey Parker), who is the new baddy.

Balthazar is a moonwalking arch nemesis and a mulleted former child star, who is obsessed with the role he played during the Regan era in the 80s. Apart from Carell, the other voice cast includes Miranda Cosgrove, Kristen Wiig, Jenny Slate, Steve Coogan, and Julie Andrews.

The source suggested that Gru will do one of his last villainous heists, along with his super-rich and long-haired brother, Dru. According to Empire, however, the most important part of the third installment will be the meeting between Dru and the villain-turned-hero, Gru.

Dru Will Tempt Gru To Become Villain Again?

In the "Despicable Me 3" second trailer, Gru meets his long lost twin brother, Dru who is still happily enjoying being on the villainous side. Rather, the whole family has been on this side since long ago but now, Gru has become a good person and is not interested in joining Dru in his villainous motives. But Dru will try to tempt him with the prospect of a heist and Gru - who even now has some dark shadows lurking within him, will give in to the temptation in "Despicable Me 3."

Directed by Pierre Kyle-Balda and Pierre Coffin, "Despicable Me 3" will release on June 30, 2017. The third sequel is written by Ken Daurio and Cinco Paul and co-directed by Eric Guillon.
