Minions Returning to Streaming in August

The films in the popular Despicable Me franchise have always been hits in the world of streaming. It doesn’t matter which service the movies are on, they typically perform well and get repeat viewings from kids and families all around the country. Right now, however, the only Despicable Me movie currently available on a major streaming service is last year’s Minions: The Rise of Gru, which is on Netflix. None of the other Despicable Me movie can be found on big services at the moment, but that will change when August rolls around.

This week, Peacock released its full list of movies and TV shows set to be added to the service’s streaming lineup in the month of August. The first Minions movie is one of several popular animated films joining the Peacock roster on August 1st. The Illumination hit will be joined by beloved DreamWorks titles like The Croods, How to Train Your Dragon 2, Over the Hedge, Shark Tale, and Shrek Forever After.
