What country does Dru live in during Despicable Me 3?

Dru lives in Freedonia during Despicable Me 3. The fictional country is where Gru’s long-lost twin brother has built an extremely wealthy life in a large mansion.

Early in the film, a butler named Fritz arrives at Gru’s home with an invitation from Dru. Gru, Lucy, and the girls travel to Freedonia, where Gru discovers that his twin is his physical opposite: Dru has a full head of blond hair, wears white clothing, and is far more outgoing and affluent than Gru.

Freedonia is an invented setting rather than a real country. Its name is a playful reference to Freedonia, the fictional nation featured in the Marx Brothers’ 1933 comedy Duck Soup. That connection makes the answer easy to mix up with other imaginary movie countries such as Sokovia, Latveria, or Genovia.

Dru’s home country also drives the film’s family story. He tells Gru that their father, known as the Bald Terror, was a supervillain, and he asks Gru to teach him the criminal skills Gru had supposedly abandoned.
