The Minions visit Nu Metro Cinemas during the July school holidays

Fans will be able to get photo ops with their favourite, larger-than-life characters and get a sense of how it feels to encounter a Minion in real life. The event is open to everyone, free of charge – just show up and meet a Minion!

Nu Metro Cinemas will also unveil their brand new MINIONS combo at catering counters during the tour – featuring alimited edition, “collector’s” style MINIONS popcorn bucket. These official merchandise items were imported for exclusive sale via Nu Metro cinemas in South Africa, in conjunction with the release of MINIONS.

Ever since the dawn of time, the Minions have lived to serve the most despicable of masters. From T. Rex to Napoleon, the easily distracted tribe has helped the biggest and the baddest of villains. Now, join Kevin, Stuart and Bob on a global road trip in MINIONS – where they’ll earn a shot to work for a new boss (the world’s first female super-villain,  voiced by Sandra Bullock) and try to save all of Minionkind… from annihilation.

The film features the voices of high-profile Hollywood talent such as Sandra Bullock, Steve Carell, Jon Hamm, and Jennifer Saunders; against a soundtrack of hit music from the ’60s that still permeates our culture today. MINIONS is produced by Illumination’s Chris Meledandri and Janet Healy, and is directed by Pierre Coffin and Kyle Balda. Brian Lynch has written the screenplay for the 3D-CG comedy adventure, and Chris Renaud serves as executive producer of the film.
