‘Despicable Me 3’ Arrives on Digital HD Nov 21 and Special Edition Blu-ray Dec 5, 2017

Illumination and Universal Pictures Home Entertainment will be releasing the highly-successful Despicable Me 3 on Digital and Digital 3D on November 21, 2017. This will be followed by a 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, DVD, and On Demand release on December 5, 2017!

The upcoming home release of Despicable Me 3 will be full of never-before-released deleted scenes, an all-new mini-movie, and so more!

Here’s the official synopsis:

Illumination, the studio that brought you Sing, The Secret Life of Pets and the Despicable Me franchise, continues the adventures of Gru and his family in Despicable Me 3. After he is fired from the Anti-Villain League for failing to take down Balthazar Bratt (Trey Parker, “South Park,” Team America: World Police), the latest evil mastermind to threaten humanity, Gru finds himself in the midst of a major identity crisis. But when a mysterious stranger shows up to inform Gru that he has a long-lost twin brother — a brother who desperately wishes to follow in his twin’s despicable footsteps — the former super-villain rediscovers just how good it feels to be bad.

Academy Award® nominee Steve Carell (Foxcatcher) reprises his hilarious role as reformed criminal mastermind Gru, as well as his newly discovered twin, Dru. The all-star voice cast also features Kristen Wiig (Bridesmaids, Despicable Me 2), Miranda Cosgrove (Despicable Me 1 & 2, School of Rock), Steve Coogan (The Secret Life of Pets, Philomena), Jenny Slate (Zootopia, The Secret Life of Pets), Dana Gaier (Despicable Me 1 & 2) and legendary singer and actress Julie Andrews (The Sound of Music, Mary Poppins).
