Russell Brand replaced
Russell Brand has been replaced in the 'Despicable Me' franchise due to serious allegations of rape and sexual assault. His character, Dr. Nefario, is now voiced by Romesh Ranganathan in the recently released fourth installment, which has grossed over £590 million worldwide. Brand's removal follows a Dispatches documentary that detailed accusations from four women, which he vehemently denies, claiming he has evidence to refute the allegations. The decision to replace him was reportedly made quietly by Universal, with little public announcement, reflecting an effort to avoid drawing attention. Following the scandal, Brand has largely retreated from the public eye, focusing on social media discussions regarding his faith and personal beliefs. He has also faced significant professional consequences, including canceled stand-up gigs and being dropped by his agent.
