Deadline are reporting that Al Pacino and Universal Pictures and Illumination Entertainment have parted company on ‘Despicable Me 2.’ Pacino was signed on to provide the voice of the film’s villain, Eduardo, in the follow-up to the 2010 hit.

Pacino’s last-minute exit is said to have come down to creative differences.
Universal Pictures confirmed Pacino’s exit, and sent over the following statement: “Over the production of Despicable Me 2, there were creative differences between us and Al Pacino, who had been cast as the voice of Eduardo in the film. We have mutually decided with Al to replace the voice of Eduardo with a new actor. Universal and Illumination thank Al for his many contributions to the process and look forward to a new actor bringing this memorable character to the screen upon its release this summer.” UPDATE: Benjamin Bratt has stepped in to voice the villain Eduardo.
