Minions made $ 115.2 million in North American premiere weekend, marking the second start in animation history. The record was held by the cartoon "Shrek the Third", which earned $ 121 million at one time.

"Minions" was the fourth movie project of 2015, which managed to earn more than 100 million in its first weekend, with three of these projects released by Universal. Outside of North America, Minions have earned more than $ 200 million at the time of this writing.

It is also worth noting that the cartoon's production budget was only $ 74 million, so it can already be considered commercially successful. In USA "Minions" set an absolute record in attendance on the day of the premiere: 931 thousand tickets were sold.

Sandra Bullock, Jon Hamm, Michael Keaton, Allison Janney, Steve Coogan, Jennifer Saunders, Jeffrey Rush, Steve Carell, Pierre Coffen, Katie Mixon and other actors voiced the key characters of the animated movie. Directed by Kyle Balda and Pierre Coffin.

Recall that in 2013, "Despicable Me 2" became the highest-grossing animation project of the year, earning about a billion dollars at the worldwide box office.
