LAS VEGAS -- South Parkco-creator Trey Parker has voiced characters Eric Cartman and Stan Marsh since the dawn of South Park in 1997, but here's something you won't believe: No one has ever asked him to voice anything else.
Until now.
Parker has been tapped by Universal Pictures animation arm Illumination to be the voice of Balthazar Bratt, the villain in next summer's Despicable Me 3.

All of this according to Illumination head Chris Meledandri, who announced the voice casting Wednesday at CinemaCon, the annual meeting of Hollywood studios and the exhibitors who show their movies.

Meledandri said Parker was thrilled to finally do some voice work that began and ended there -- standing up after a day's work in the sound booth and declaring "I'm just glad that someone else will have to figure out the second act!"
Despicable Me 3is due in theaters June 30, 2017.
