The Henchman (2014)

Described as a live-action, grounded comedy in the vein of Despicable Me, The Henchman centers on a henchman to the world’s worst super-villain who deals with single parenthood and impending middle age.

Dan Kopelman (Rules Of Engagement, Malcolm In The Middle) penned The Henchman on spec, which he further developed with Aaron Kaplan of Kapital Entertainment, who is set to executive produce with feature writer-director John Hamburg (Meet The Parents franchise, I Love You, Man) set to direct. The project is yet to be laid off at a studio, with Fox sibling 20th Century Fox and Warner Bros. TV considered strong possibilities. (Source: FOX)
