Megamind

Megamind is a 2010 3D computer-animated superhero comedy film produced by DreamWorks Animation and Pacific Data Images and distributed by Paramount Pictures. Directed by Tom McGrath from a screenplay by Alan Schoolcraft and Brent Simons, the film stars the voices of Will Ferrell, Tina Fey, Jonah Hill, David Cross, and Brad Pitt. It tells the story of Megamind, a highly intelligent alien supervillain; after defeating his long-time nemesis Metro Man, Megamind creates a new hero to fight, but must act to save the city when his "creation" becomes an even worse villain than he was.

Megamind premiered in on October 28, 2010, and was released in the United States in Digital 3D, IMAX 3D and 2D on November 5, 2010, and was met with generally positive reviews from critics. With a budget of $130 million, the film grossed over $321 million worldwide, becoming one of DreamWorks Animation's lowest-grossing CG animated films of the 2010s.

It later spawned a franchise including three games, and a short film, titled Megamind: The Button of Doom, which released on February 25, 2011, with the film's DVD and Blu-ray. A follow-up series, Megamind's Guide to Defending Your City, was announced in 2022 for Peacock.
