Pharrell and composer Heitor Pereira have re-teamed to produce the soundtrack for Despicable Me 2, the sequel to the 2010 animated comedy .

Now say hello to the new Anchorman 2! With the second title of: "The Legend Continues." Though sad for us, there's not much info given about the plot line and the trailer is even more vague with that comedic beat-around-the-bush technique.
