Though he is the most brilliant supervillain the world has known, Megamind () is the least- successful. Thwarted time and again by heroic Metro Man (), Megamind is more surprised than anyone when he actually manages to defeat his longtime enemy. But without Metro Man, Megamind has no purpose in life, so he creates a new opponent, who quickly decides that it's more fun to be a bad guy than a hero.

Colour me in! The Lead Characters Pick a character and follow their character journey (arc) throughout the film.

Megamind Eight days after his birth, his home planet was destroyed by a black hole. Before the planet was absorbed, Megamind's parents sent him off the planet in an escape pod with his caretaker, Minion, to Earth. Despite having a long record of losses, Megamind retains his inflated ego. He’s quick to compliment himself, whether it’s about his good-looks or his brilliance.

Roxanne Richi she is brave. If there is wrongdoing of any kind afoot, she will try to stop it, even when it's clear she's at a disadvantage. She is very strong-minded and she is very determined, so when she decides on doing something, she will do it. However, she isn't reckless, she will call for and accept help if the situation calls for it.

Minion Minion is witty, polite, loyal, easy going, caring, clumsy, comical and sometimes can be a bit overdramatic. Minion cares deeply for Megamind and looks after him physically and emotionally, and often tries to gently talk him out of his craziest plans.

MASTER MIND Right now I'm packing, later I'll have a snack on the train.

ROXANNE Try acting out a You're running away? scene straight from the movie! MASTER MIND In a word - yes.
