Video Trailer: ‘Despicable Me 3’. Gru and Lucy enlist Gru’s long-lost brother, Dru (also Mr. Carell), to assist in Bratt’s capture. Dru, who lives in a seemingly Mediterranean paradise called Freedonia (you heard that right, but end there), is obscenely wealthy and has an indefinable blondish hairdo apparently trendy among the obscenely wealthy.
