"The Despicable Me 3" trailer arrived yesterday with a fascinating villain who adores the 80's popular culture. "South Park" fame Trey Parker breathes life into the super villain Balthazar Brat with his voice.

The trailer starts with a clever introduction of Gru (Steve Carell) and Lucy (Kristen Wiig). Which later takes us to the miscreant Balthazar Brat who, as indicated by Forbes, is a child star who kept his 80's part as he grew up. He begins a heist by playing Micheal Jackson's "I'm Bad" which he unquestionably alludes to as "Heist Music."

Balthazar Brat appears as a man who has a mustache, flat top hair, additional mullet and his clothing style resemble us of somebody from an 80's Disco with purple color and shoulder pads.

The intriguing part of the trailer is the where one can recognize Balthazar as an adversary who equals Gru's skills. He utilizes an ever expanding bubble gum to lead a heist from a ship. Before no time, Gru comes into the picture and then events turn out to be hilarious. The minions also make a special appearance at the end of the trailer.

Trey Parker, who voices Balthazar is an Emmy, Grammy and Tony winner. He is known for co-creating the hit animation comedy series South Park. Io9.gizmodo.com reports that casting him was a good idea as he is not a person who does art for the money.

The production companies involved in the film are Illumination Entertainment and Universal Pictures. The budget is set between a 100 to 150 million, but the cost could vary since it is an animation film that is based on detailing.

"Despicable Me 3" is set to release next year around the 28th of June in the US and on the 30th of June in the UK. Parents are definitely excited that Gru and his Minions are returning.
