Despicable Me 4, now streaming in Australia, adds a baby and five mega minions for a more hilarious adventure.

It’s been seven years since we last saw Gru, Lucy, Margo, Edith, Agnes, and the always adorable minions together. With the new film now available to stream online, an exciting adventure awaits in Despicable Me 4, which you can watch instantly on BINGE, Foxtel, and Foxtel Now.


The new Despicable Me movie hit Australian cinemas on 20 June 2024. It went on to become a blockbuster hit, accumulating over $800 million at the box office.

Just like any new movies, it became available for rent or purchase on Apple TV, Google Play, Fetch, and Prime Video Store for those who’ve missed the film at the cinema or want to rewatch it at home.

UPDATE: After six months, Despicable Me 4 is finally streaming in Australia from 18 January 2025 on BINGE and Foxtel via Movies Premiere. Foxtel Now users can also stream the movie on demand using the streamer’s 10-day free trial of the Ultimate Bundle (formerly All Packs).

Will Despicable Me 4 be streaming on Netflix?

Considering prior Despicable Me movies making their appearances on Netflix, it’s likely for Despicable Me 4 to be streaming on Netflix too. As of this writing, we’ve only confirmed BINGE, Foxtel, and its streaming counterpart Foxtel Now to be the ones streaming Despicable Me 4 in Australia.


Check out the Despicable Me 4 trailer right here: 

Gru (Steve Carell) and Lucy (Kristen Wiig) are taking their family life to the next level with the addition of a new member, Gru Jr. But just when they’re enjoying their newfound domestic bliss forgetting all their villainy past, trouble arises when a criminal mastermind escapes from prison.

Unfortunately for Gru, the escaped supervillain, Maxime Le Mal (Will Ferrell), hates him so much he vows revenge. To protect Gru and his family, they are sent to live somewhere else where they meet their new neighbours Patsy (Chloe Fineman), Perry Prescott (Stephen Colbert), and their daughter Poppy (Joey King).

But with Maxime and his femme fatale girlfriend Valentina (Sofia Vergara) intent on finding them, Gru and fam must stop running and fight their new nemesis the only way they know how – together while using a bunch of super cool stuff. 

From producers Chris Meledandri and Brett Hoffman, the new Despicable Me movie is directed by Chris Renaud from a screenplay written by Mike White and Ken Daurio. It stars Steve Carell as Gru and Kristen Wiig as Lucy. Will Ferrell also joins the cast as the new villain Maxime Le Mal. Nev Scharrel, who played Agnes in the third film, is replaced by Madison Polan. 

Completing the cast of Despicable Me 4 are Joey King as Poppy Prescott, Sofía Vergara as Valentina, Stephen Colbert as Perry Prescott, Chloe Fineman as Patsy Prescott, Miranda Cosgrove as Margo, Dana Gaier as Edith, Steve Coogan as Silas Ramsbottom, and Pierre Coffin as the Minions.
