Minions 2 confirmed to be released on July 2, 2021

According to the latest news from foreign media, the previously withdrawn animated film "Minions 2: The Rise of Gru" has been rescheduled and will be released in North America on July 2, 2021. Previously, the film was scheduled to be released worldwide in late June and early July this year, but was later postponed due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Apparently due to schedule conflicts, Universal's other animated film "Sing 2", which was originally scheduled to be released on July 2, 2021, has also been postponed to December 22, 2021 in North America, while the musical adaptation "Wicked", which was originally scheduled to be released in the same period, has announced that it will be temporarily withdrawn.

Minions 2 returns to Gru's teenage years, and tells the story of how he met the Minions. The Minions applied to become assistants to the "bad dreamer" Gru, but the gems they stole from the "Sinister Six" were lost by the new Minions member Otto, which triggered a series of interesting stories.
