"[I] saw Minions: The Rise of Gru and my question is what happened to Otto? Why haven’t we seen him in any of the other movies?" one particular person asked on Twitter, adding that they are "concerned over his welfare." Honestly, we are too!

"Otto is very important to the new Minions movie plot. Since this movie is a prequel, what happened to him? He is never shown in any other movie containing minions as characters, and he was very important in this movie," one Redditor expressed.

They persisted, "Stuart, Kevin, and Bob are all featured in EVERY film. So why is Otto seen so much in the new film but no old ones? Something must have happened to outcast him, fire him, or even kill him. We need the truth."

Although his absence has but to be addressed by Illumination, some fans theorize that Otto is actually lifeless. However, if they were true Minion fanatics, they'd know that screenwriter Brian Lynch confirmed that Minions are immortal.

As a matter of fact, the 49-year-old Minions and Secret Life of Pets screenwriter hilariously answered to a Twitter user who requested him what would happen if he "hit a Minion repeatedly with a very large, sharp, and heavy ax."

"The ax would break," Brian replied.

Now that everyone knows Minions are immortal, let's get back to working out Otto's current whereabouts.

Many fans on Twitter surely think that is the case, but what about you? What do you assume? Let us know!
