Ferguson replaced Will Ferrell as the voice of Megamind, Post replaced Tina Fey as the voice of Roxanne and Brener replaced David Cross as the voice of Minion.
Summary. Megamind vs. the Doom Syndicate features an entirely different voice cast, with Will Ferrell replaced by Keith Ferguson. The creators of the film explained the recasting was due to scheduling and the ability to find fresh talent to expand the characters' relationships.
Recasting Will Ferrell for Megamind 2 may have been unavoidable, but the protagonist's voice doesn't sound like Ferrell in the sequel. Keith Ferguson has an impressive resume when it comes to animated projects, but his Megamind sounds completely different to Ferrell's version, and it is very noticeable.
He'll be bringing the audience along for the ride, as Megamind's trusty brainbots will be recording everything, making him the world's first superhero influencer. The voice cast for both the movie and series features: Keith Ferguson (Robot Chicken, DuckTales) as Megamind.
Instead they got new guys that sounded nothing like the original movie characters. The story was off, horrible set of screen writers, animation was low budget, and it was boring. We all know and love Megamind, but in this one I want to throw my remote at the TV. And also, this film was supposed to hit theaters.
The film is reportedly the worst-rated film by DreamWorks Animation, who are also awaiting the release of Kung Fu Panda 4. Despite being a popular IP, the film failed to impress any of the audiences, and here are three reasons behind the failure of the sequel.
There are other fan theories connected to this subject, of course—it's been suggested that Megamind may have an anxiety disorder, could be high-functioning autistic, and is likely going through a midlife crisis during the film—but I will leave it there for this week.
He is a parody of Lex Luthor and Brainiac while his "Space Dad" persona is a parody of both the physical resemblance of Jor-El as played by Marlon Brando in the 1978 film Superman and Brando's voice as Vito Corleone in The Godfather.
Known as "Minion" in the original film, his name is changed to "Ol' Chum" in the sequel film Megamind vs. the Doom Syndicate and the television series Megamind Rules! This is said in-universe to be due to a copyright dispute with a creature involving a banana.
Keith Ferguson as Megamind, a blue-skinned, humanoid alien supervillain-turned-superhero with a large cranium. Ferguson replaces Will Ferrell from the original film, in addition to previously voicing the character in the first film's tie-in video games.
Megamind has a problem with mispronouncing words. It's unclear whether he does it intentionally or if he simply misread them the first time he'd seen it written. For example, he pronounces Metro City as Metrosity and he pronounces school as shool.
After seeing all of the damage Tighten is causing to Metrocity, as well as his plan to kill Roxanne, Megamind suddenly has a change of heart after Metro Man suggests to him to take his place as the city's new hero, and when he finally gives a sincere apology to the Warden, who is actually Minion in disguise.
Megamind was one of the lowest-grossing DreamWorks films of the 2010s. Since it didn't scream "instant hit" like other properties did, a sequel was not at the top of DreamWorks' priorities, leading to a long wait for the sequel.
Aquatic animals often tend to have blue, gray, and green colorations. Megamind's possible semi-aquatic nature may not be the only reason for the color of his skin. While, in popular culture, we usually think of extraterrestrials as “little green men,” the creators of the film chose to make Megamind blue instead.
Why make such a choice in a time when male-dominated children's movies are so rare? “Seeing how dumb and stupid they often are, I just couldn't imagine Minions being girls,” Coffin told TheWrap. According to the French animator, all of the title characters are voiced by male actors.
The film shows that the Minions existed in the Cretaceous Period since they interact with a Tyrannosaurus rex in the film. Therefore, the Minions have been around for at least 60 million years.
The undeniable stars of the hit Despicable Me franchise, the Minions, have all been confirmed as male by co-creator Pierre Coffin. The yellow-skinned, pill-shaped creatures, who exist to serve the world's greatest evildoers, won hearts through their patented combination of adorability and blunderous behavior.
Metro Man was quick to realize that much like how his existence turned Megamind to villainy, Metro Man is locked in the eyes of the citizens as their hero, and he wanted to pursue his own interests in music.
Megamind vs. the Doom Syndicate features an entirely different voice cast, with Will Ferrell replaced by Keith Ferguson. The creators of the film explained the recasting was due to scheduling and the ability to find fresh talent to expand the characters' relationships.
(If you've read How Smart is Megamind, you already know that his IQ may be around 350.) Our favorite alien hero may not have superpowers, but he is a super-genius, and some fans speculate that we may see him playing to those strengths by solving crimes as well as engineering brilliant heroic inventions.
Megamind's Species are a sapient race of blue-skinned humanoid aliens. They are now mostly extinct, and the last, most famous member of them is Megamind himself.
The third strike is when Minion notices that Megamind has fallen in love with Roxanne and tries to stop him, pointing out that the bad guy never gets the girl. This results in a fight and Minion eventually leaves the evil lair and Megamind.
