Who voices the Minions?

Minions co-director Pierre Coffin is the man responsible for providing the voice of Kevin, Stuart, Bob, Otto, and all of the other Minions.

The language now known as “Minionese” was originally discovered during the pre-production phase of Despicable Me when Coffin used his own voice during an official test.

Speaking to TrailerAddict, via Central Recorder, Coffin – who speaks multiple languages – explained how he provided a recording “just to show whoever [was] going to design the voice a way to go”.

However, the producers loved his rendition so much that they suggested he continue to do the voices.
