Bad Bunny gives Minions & Monsters a Latin urban twist with “EoO”

• The highly anticipated third installment of the Illumination franchise, Minions & Monsters, released its final trailer to the rhythm of “EoO”, the latest hit by Bad Bunny.

• The film, which places the charismatic yellow characters in 1920s Hollywood, will hit theaters on July 1, 2026.

• With this collaboration, the Puerto Rican artist consolidates his presence in global popular culture, merging trap and reggaeton with the saga’s irreverent humor.

The Minions phenomenon is back and this time it brings renewed energy thanks to one of the most influential figures in music today. Bad Bunny serves as the sonic protagonist of the final trailer for Minions & Monsters, the new venture from Illumination and Universal Pictures that promises to dominate the 2026 summer box office.

The producers chose “EoO”, a track from his album Debí tirar más fotos, to accompany the wacky adventures of the yellow henchmen. Since the preview’s premiere, social media has buzzed with the unexpected but effective mix, the classic 1920s film industry aesthetic merges with the powerful bass and unmistakable style of the “Bad Bunny”.

Chaos, monsters and Hollywood

In this new adventure, the Minions set an objective as ambitious as it is absurd, to conquer Hollywood by creating their own horror film. To achieve this, they decide to use real monsters, triggering a series of catastrophic events that only they could cause.

The intensity of Bad Bunny’s “EoO” provides the perfect thread for the chase scenes, explosions, and general chaos that defines the franchise. The urban rhythm not only brings freshness but also highlights the film’s irreverent and frantic tone, proving that Latin music holds a privileged space even in the world’s largest animation projects.

A record-breaking release

Minions & Monsters plans its exclusive theatrical release for July 1, 2026. The film seeks to surpass or equal the success of a saga that has already grossed more than $5.6 billion globally. To ensure this triumph, the production features a top-tier voice cast, including Jeff Bridges, Allison Janney, Christoph Waltz, and Jesse Eisenberg.

Under the direction of Pierre Coffin, the original creator of the characters, the film is shaping up to be the family event of the year.

Bad Bunny, beyond the stage

The inclusion of Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio in the soundtrack of a production of this caliber reaffirms his status as a cultural icon who transcends genres. This is not the first time Bad Bunny has ventured into the world of cinema, but his participation in a franchise as massive as the Minions ensures his music resonates with audiences of all ages and corners of the planet.

With “EoO” playing throughout the trailer, it is clear that the world will now dance to and enjoy the Minions’ chaos with a very Latin urban touch.
