Julie Andrews has lent her iconic voice to upcoming movie 'Despicable Me,' which opens in theaters July 9, 2010. Click below to watch a clip of Andrews recording some lines the movie, as 'Gru's' mother.

The animated feature, 'Despicable Me,' additionally stars Steve Carell, Jason Segel, Russell Brand, and Miranda Cosgrove.

In a happy suburban neighborhood surrounded by white picket fences and flowering rose bushes sits a black house with a dead lawn. Unbeknownst to the neighbors, hidden deep beneath this home is a vast secret hideout. Surrounded by an army of mischievous little minions, we discover Gru (Steve Carell) planning the biggest heist in the history of the world: he is going to steal the moon.

Gru delights in all things wicked. Armed with his arsenal of shrink rays, freeze rays, and battle-ready vehicles for land and air, he vanquishes all who stand in his way. That is, until the day he encounters the immense will of three little orphaned girls who look at him and see something that no one else has ever seen: a potential dad.

One of the world's greatest super-villains has just met his greatest challenge: three little girls named Margo, Edith, and Agnes.
