'Despicable Me 2' Trailer Features Abduction, Arson and Eminem

The high-pitched yellow minions from Despicable Me are back.

Three years after the original animated film made its debut, Despicable Me 2 continues the tale of lovable villain Gru (Steve Carell) and his three adopted daughters. This time, Gru faces a new nemesis voiced by The Godfather himself, Al Pacino.

Scored to Eminem's "Without Me," a new trailer for the sequel shows our protagonist getting kidnapped by Agent Lucy Wilde of the Anti-Villain League. Gru later finds out that the league is recruiting him to fend off a new unnamed evildoer that has surfaced.

For the entire two-and-a-half-minute trailer, watch the video, above. Despicable Me 2 is slated for release on July 3.
