[[WMG: Minions will make a cameo in the movie, perhaps as an easter egg.]]
Illumination loves putting the Minions into their films, so it seems likely that the Minions will pop up at some point as an Easter Egg.

A lot of kid movies (most not all) seem to be hopping onto this bandwagon, and besides, this is ''Illumination'' we're talking about...

* Confirmed -- The film got generally mixed/positive reviews from film critics, who noted that while the movie itself may not add much to the legacy of the original, it's still a pretty good movie on its own and could easily hook modern children as well be appealing to fans of the original version.

Creator/IlluminationEntertainment has recently been using a lot of adult cartoon [[DescendedCreator creator/voice actors]] in their films, like Creator/SethMacFarlane in ''{{WesternAnimation/Sing}}'' and [[Creator/TreyParkerAndMattStone Trey Parker]] in ''WesternAnimation/DespicableMe3''. It only makes sense their next film will continue this pattern, and who else but a creator and voice actor on such a popular show like ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty''? What about the tile character?

* The trailer’s shows a child Grinch in a [[OrphanageOfFear less-than-welcoming orphanage]]. So his general misanthropy might have stemmed from being alone Christmas after Christmas, or at least something along that line.

The film's synopsis reveals that Cindy plans to trap Santa in order to thank him for all he has done. If she captures the Grinch disguised as Santa and if she is gullible enough to believe he really is Santa, then the Grinch could lie to her and ask her to help him take the Christmas stuff, while saying all of it will be used for a huge Christmas party in the north pole. Only for the Grinch to send it to the top of Mount Crumpit and attempt to destroy everthing just like in the book.

It only makes sense their next film will continue this pattern, and who else but a creator and voice actor on such a popular show like ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty''? What about the tile character?
* The last part has been jossed as Benedict Cumberbatch is voicing the titular Grinch.
* Though that doesn't mean he won't voice another character (likely maybe a {{jerkass}} character or a villain since ''Sing'' and ''Despicable Me 3'' had those respective actors playing jerk characters).
[[WMG: There will be references to Benedict Cumberbatch's previous roles, such as ''Series/{{Sherlock}}''.]]
I mean come on, it's way too easy.
* Likely in the form of the Grinch getting his "wonderful awful idea" through a SherlockScan.
[[WMG: There will be a reference made to the ''Halloween is Grinch Night'' special.]]
Most likely in the form of that crazy paraphernalia wagon.
* Euchariah appears as an old man to warn Cindy Lou about the Grinch.
* At one point, the Grinch will say [[MemeticMutation "You better put on some glasses and face the facts!"]]
* A background character will shout "What the euphemism?!"
[[WMG: The Grinch's backstory in this film will be different from the one in the [[Film/HowTheGrinchStoleChristmas 2000 film]].]]
Simply because it makes sense that Illumination would want their adaptation to be distinct from the Jim Carey version. Suggestions would be welcome.
* [[WesternAnimation/TheGrinchGrinchesTheCatInTheHat Grinch's mother]] will have a cameo or even a minor role in the plot.
[[WMG: The film will feature [[EverythingsBetterWithPenguins penguins]].]]
Simply as an excuse to make a joke about Cumberbatch's tenancy to say "penguin" as "pengwing". Maybe they'll be the Minion-esque comic reliefs.
[[WMG: As well as voicing the titular character, Cumberbatch will also narrate.]]
As a reference to Boris Karloff having a double-role as both the Grinch and the narrator in the original 1966 special.
[[WMG: The film will be better than the trailer makes it look.]]
Not great, and certainly not as good as the original special, but more SoOkayItsAverage.
