Megamind Plot Summary
What happens in Megamind from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 15 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 2-minute read.
Spoilers ahead
Megamind, portrayed by Will Ferrell, is a highly intelligent alien with a flair for villainy and self-proclaimed charm. As the infamous antagonist in the bustling world of Metro City, he constantly battles his arch-nemesis, Metropolitan’s beloved protector, Metro Man. Their conflict dates back to their childhood, both sent to Earth as infants from their dying worlds, where Metro Man’s fortunate upbringing contrasts sharply with Megamind’s lonely, genius life as an orphan.
On the day a museum is dedicated to Metro Man, Megamind, along with his loyal companion Minion, kidnaps reporter Roxanne Ritchi, played by Tina Fey, to draw out his adversary. In a shocking twist, Metro Man finds himself trapped in a copper-lined room—his only weakness—and seemingly meets his end at the hands of Megamind’s reckless ambition.
