Another volume of Minion shorts will be headed to Netflix globally in November 2022, just a couple of months after the first volume dropped.
We first reported that Netflix was due to receive two batches of Minions and other shorts back in August 2022, although we didn’t have firm release dates at the time.
The first batch arrived on Netflix on September 22nd, 2022 globally and contained numerous Minions shorts from the Despicable Me franchise.
Among the shorts included were mini-movies like Training Wheels, Puppy, and Yellow Is the New Black. It had a runtime of just under 50 minutes in total.
Since the addition of the title, it’s rocked the Netflix top 10s around the globe and has featured in the hourly top 10 results for three weeks.
Between September 18th and October 9th, 2022, the special picked up 23,280,000 million hours watched globally.
