With Deadpool & Wolverine tracking for a $160 million launch later this month, Hollywood’s summer is looking up. That run has helped give Illumination founder and chief executive Chris Meledandri one of the most enviable track records in Hollywood. Despicable Me 4, directed by Chris Renaud and Patrick Delage, returns the voice cast led by Steve Carell and Kristen Wiig and doubles down on more Minion mayhem. Reviews weren’t particularly good for the latest installment, which includes a witness protection plot and a group of Minions transformed into a superhero squadron.
