According to Universal Pictures, the upcoming film “Despicable Me 4,” set for domestic release on the 24th, will boast a powerful soundtrack featuring world-renowned artists. Particularly notable is the inclusion of K-pop sensations BTS and BLACKPINK, which has drawn immense interest from fans worldwide.
The film will feature BTS’s hit song “Dynamite” and BLACKPINK’s energetic track “Boombayah.” These songs are expected to enhance the film’s cheerful appeal with their vibrant energy, adding a dynamic layer to the movie experience.
The new character, Poppy, is not just a fan of BTS but also a member of their official fan club, ARMY, highlighting the extraordinary status of K-pop artists in popular culture.
In addition to BTS and BLACKPINK, Pharrell Williams, who has been involved in all three previous “Despicable Me” series, will once again contribute his addictive music to the soundtrack. Pharrell gained worldwide popularity with “Happy” from “Despicable Me 2,” which topped the Billboard charts for ten consecutive weeks, was nominated for Best Original Song at the 86th Academy Awards, and won at the 57th Grammy Awards.
For this film, he will present the rhythmic song “Double Life,” dynamically decorating the opening scene where Gru and the Agent Minions attempt to arrest the villain Maxim.
The soundtrack will also feature high-quality music from trusted international artists, including Lil Yachty’s “Lil Mega Minion,” Elton John and Dua Lipa’s “Cold Heart,” and Pitbull’s “Freedom.” This diverse musical lineup raises curiosity about the synergy these songs will create in the film.
“Despicable Me 4” depicts the enhanced Gru family, who have left villainy behind to become Agent Minions with the AVL, as they work to stop the villain Maxim, who has escaped from prison to take revenge on Gru. The movie will be released on the 24th, promising an exciting blend of action, comedy, and music.
