Despicable Me has a new trailer and it’s just as strange and unexpected as the last one. This time, we get a little clearer picture of what the movie might be about. Super villains. Steve Carrell’s strangely accented bald character, Gru, is the world’s number two super villain and he’d very much like to be number one.

In the trailer, he attempts to assault the lair of the world’s number one villain and meets with stiff resistance of the type that would do Dr. Evil proud. I’ve said for years now that Mike Meyers should have really just dropped the Austin Powers from Austin Powers after the second movie and given Dr. Evil his own movie. Well now someone’s doing it, only in animated form.

Official plot synopsis:

In a happy suburban neighborhood surrounded by white picket fences with flowering rose bushes, sits a black house with a dead lawn. Unbeknownst to the neighbors, hidden beneath this home is a vast secret hideout. Surrounded by a small army of minions, we discover Gru (voiced by Steve Carell), planning the biggest heist in the history of the world. He is going to steal the moon (Yes, the moon!) in Universal’s new 3-D CGI feature, Despicable Me.

Gru delights in all things wicked. Armed with his arsenal of shrink rays, freeze rays, and battle-ready vehicles for land and air, he vanquishes all who stand in his way. Until the day he encounters the immense will of three little orphaned girls who look at him and see something that no one else has ever seen: a potential Dad.

The world’s (second) greatest villain has just met his greatest challenge: three little girls named Margo, Edith and Agnes.
