What is the plot of Despicable Me 4?

Gru (Steve Carell) and Lucy (Kristen Wiig) are taking their family life to the next level with the addition of a new member, Gru Jr. But just when they’re enjoying their newfound domestic bliss forgetting all their villainy past, trouble arises when a criminal mastermind escapes from prison.

Unfortunately for Gru, the escaped supervillain, Maxime Le Mal (Will Ferrell), hates him so much he vows revenge. To protect Gru and his family, they are sent to live somewhere else where they meet their new neighbours Patsy (Chloe Fineman), Perry Prescott (Stephen Colbert), and their daughter Poppy (Joey King).

But with Maxime and his femme fatale girlfriend Valentina (Sofia Vergara) intent on finding them, Gru and fam must stop running and fight their new nemesis the only way they know how – together while using a bunch of super cool stuff. 

From producers Chris Meledandri and Brett Hoffman, the new Despicable Me movie is directed by Chris Renaud from a screenplay written by Mike White and Ken Daurio.
