Minions Biography

Since Comcast acquired NBCUniversal, the parent company of Illumination, in 2013, the Minions have served as the company's official mascots. They are comparable to Mickey Mouse for The Walt Disney Company, Bugs Bunny for Warner Bros. Discovery, SpongeBob SquarePants for Paramount Global, and Woody Woodpecker for Universal Studios. 

The most well-known minions are Kevin, Stuart, and Bob, who star in the movies Minions (2015) and Minions: The Rise of Gru (2022). In the franchise's movies and other media, numerous additional Minions are identified by name. They were produced by the Illumination films' art director Eric Guillon.

V. Minions Characteristic

Small, yellow capsule-shaped creatures known as Minions wear rounded gray eyeglasses. Although they were initially thought to be between one-third and half the height of humans, they were later found to be 3 feet 7 inches (1.1 meters) tall. Their irises are typically brown, and they have one or two eyes (except for Bob, who has one green and one brown eye). Beyond the number and color of eyes, as well as their height, there doesn't seem to be any other distinction between the two types. Despite the fact that they are shown smelling fruit and being affected by the Fart Gun, they appear to have a big interest in bananas. The majority of Minions have either no hair on their heads or just a few stray black hairs. They are dressed in blue overalls bearing the Gru's logo, black rubber gloves, shoes, and goggles, having fled their native Switzerland in the late 1960s in favor of a new life in America. 

They are portrayed as being somewhat clumsy and having a lot of mischievous tendencies, but they also have exceptional engineering skills and can design and build spaceships and playthings for Gru's adopted daughters, especially the youngest, Agnes. The 2015 animated feature film Minions demonstrates that they have existed ever since the Earth's first life forms. When they don't have a "boss" to serve, minions become depressed and listless because they are biologically programmed to seek out and obey the worst of villains. The fact that Kevin, Stuart, and Bob can survive a European torture chamber unharmed, even while tampering with the torture tools, further demonstrates their degree of invulnerability. The Minions are shown to have an almost insatiable appetite for fruit, especially bananas, in the 2010 short film "Banana."

Language: The majority of the time, minions talk incomprehensible gibberish that is partly derived from other languages like French, English, Japanese, Korean, Italian, Spanish, and German, but is understandable to the human characters in the movies. The English-sounding dialogue is dubbed differently for each country in order to make the sounds somewhat recognizable, despite the fact that it seems absurd. They go by names that are widely used in English, including Dave (one of the franchise's earliest known minions), Kevin, Stuart, Bob, Mel (the head of the Minions in Despicable Me 3), and Otto.

VI. Minions’ Types

The minions' physical characteristics appear to vary depending on who you look at. Five of them are frequently observed among the typical minions. They appear to only have one gender, which is male. Alternatively, they could be hermaphrodites with characteristics of a man (as it is clear they only ever take male names). There is no discussion or inference made about their mating and reproductive practices beyond what is stated in Orientation Day and Minions, so it's possible that they simply don't reproduce normally (although, as seen in Minions, Stuart definitely tries to put the moves on some yellow fire hydrants; on the other hand, as also seen in Orientation Day, there is no mention of them mating or reproducing in the usual way).

1. Short / Two-eyed Minions

Short / Two-eyed Minions

  • As portrayed by characters like Dave, Jerry, Mark, Mike, and Tom in the three movies (and six mini-movies) that have been released so far. 
  • These people work in great numbers for Gru and, aside from the type that follows (below), they seem to be the most prevalent.

2. Short / One-eyed Minions

Short / One-eyed Minions

These guys, the second-most prevalent variety of minion, only have one eye (and, thus, probably have some difficulty with depth perception). There are a lot of these working for Gru, perhaps even more than the type mentioned above. 

The three films (and the six mini-movies) to date all feature characters of this type, most notably Carl, John, Kevin (from Despicable Me), Lance, Phil, and Stuart.

3. Short / Heavy / Two-eyed Minions

Short / Heavy / Two-eyed Minions

The number of this type of minion in the community is less than that of the previous types. It's unclear whether their heavy, barrel-shaped bodies are a result of poor weight management or are merely a genetic variation. And while there are a number of them in the three films (as well as a few in a few of the six mini-movies), young Bob, who is even a little shorter than the average minion (Bob appears to top out at 3 feet in height—or 91.44 centimeters), and Jerry specifically represent them. In addition to being different from his fellow minions genetically, Bob also stands out because his right eye is green and his left is blue. This condition is known as complete heterochromia iridum.

4. Tall / Two-eye Minions

Tall / Two-eye Minions

There is another type of minion that is not as prevalent in the community numerically. The average height of this type of minion, which is slightly shorter than that of the other types, is just under four feet (or 120 centimeters). They don't seem to be hindered by their height, and the majority of them don't seem to use it to intimidate the other minions (though there might be one or two exceptions, as noted in the opening menu and closing credits animations for the Despicable Me movies, and in the mini-movie Banana). 

This type is represented in the three films (and the six mini-movies) released so far, most notably through the personas of Ken, Kevin (from Minions and Despicable Me 2), and Tim.

5. Tall / One-eyed Minions

Tall / One-eyed Minions

This type is never depicted as a yellow minion in any of the films, mini-movies, or the video game Minion Rush. Only what seems to be an official graphic representation of the type is available. However, as can be seen in the screenshots below, there are definite signs that this type does exist among the minions, albeit extremely infrequently. It is unclear why they are not depicted in the movies in their natural yellow form. As a result, we will permit this one to continue being depicted as an official minion type until we hear otherwise in an official statement from Universal Pictures or Illumination Entertainment. 

VII. Minions’s Family, Boss

1. Gru

Height

  • In centimeters: 240

  • In meters: 2.4m

  • In feet inches: 8’

 Weight

  • In kilogram: 78 kilograms

  • In Pound: 171 lb

Gru is the mastermind behind the evil in Despicable Me. He devises the strangest evil scheme ever while attempting to steal the moon. Gru embarked on this mission to shrink and steal the Earth's moon with the help of his elderly assistant and a vast army of adorably cute minions. Before stealing the moon, he must first obtain the shrink ray from Vector (another cunning villain). 

2. Edith Gru

Edith Gru

  • Eye color: Dark Blueish-Grey

  • Hair color: Blonde

The middle child of Felonius Gru and Lucy Wilde, Edith Gru is an adopted person. Margo, her older sister, and Agnes, her younger sister, are her siblings. She can be seen in each of the three Despicable Me movies, the theme park attraction Despicable Me: Minion Mayhem, and a number of the short films.

3. Margo Gru

  • Eye color: Brown

  • Hair color: Brown

Margo Gru is Felonius Gru and Lucy Wilde's oldest adopted child. Like her younger sisters Edith and Agnes, she was an orphan before being adopted, and Miss Hattie treated her terribly while she was an orphan. Margo wished to be adopted by someone who would love her, just like Edith and Agnes did. She strongly disapproves of Edith's mischievous behavior, which is evident when Edith splashes Agnes and herself in puddles and also when Edith accidentally breaks an acid vial in Gru's kitchen.

4. Agnes Gru

  • Eye color: Medium Brown

  • Hair color: Jet Black

Along with her older sisters Margo and Edith, Agnes Gru is one of the three adopted daughters of Gru and Lucy. Of the three sisters, she is the youngest. She has demonstrated numerous times how much she adores unicorns. She appears in several of the mini movies as well as all four of the Despicable Me movies.
