"The first Minions movie spends its opening minutes explaining the origin of the Minions and their role in history. They always helped out the baddest, most despicable people around, right up to Napoleon Bonaparte in 1812."
"Fans have long joked about how the creators made sure to canonically hide away the Minions for more than a century to sidestep the Hitler question."
"Minions & Monsters is retconning the ice cave and telling us that at least some of the Minions ventured out well before the 1960s."
The first Minions film explained the characters' absence during World War I and II by stating they hid in a cave until 1968. This was a way to avoid awkward historical implications. However, the new film, Minions & Monsters, is set to retcon this backstory, suggesting that some Minions were active in the 1920s as Hollywood stars. This change raises questions about how the film will address their previous history and the implications of their actions during significant historical events.
