'''Roxanne Ritchi''' is an incompetent, not-so dim-witted villainous reporter who once attempted to shoot Megamind. She was opposed to villainy, untill she actually ''married'' Megamind instead of shooting him! (In case you are wondering, Roxanne, you look like a dumber version of Megamind, and you are!) Everyone, even Minion, knows that Roxanne is the real criminal and Megamind is actually the good guy, although Metroman did not even <u>admit it!</u> Minion, on the other hand, is constantly injured by Roxanne Ritchi! The reason that Minion faked his death in the original movie is because of the fact that Roxanne was after him, and he knew that if he died, Roxanne would not be opposing him anymore! Metroman didn't want to be partners with Roxanne because she was (are you ready actually a super- criminal. When Roxanne visited the museam in Metro City, she was not being nice and said that without Metroman, villainy and extreme criminality would rule. Megamind hears this, and tries to make Roxanne believe that he is Bernard, the second most incoherent reporter. Everyone believes that Bernard is more intelligent than Roxanne, because he did not attempt to kill Megamind, and Roxanne did. Once the police officers even arrested Roxanne for attempting to shoot everyone in Metro City! Roxanne did not like being in prison, and she escaped! The police officers saw her run out of the prison, and chased her! Roxanne was put on trial, and she was once again found guilty of attempted murder. Everyone decided to knock down Metro City Prison, with Roxanne inside! As a fact, Roxanne is the meanest, most silliest, fictional reporter of the modern time period! She is even worse than all of the criminals and viilains in the world put together! SO THERE, ROXANNE RITCHI!!

Going to grieve for Metro Man she unknowingly encounters Megamind in the museum when he disguised himself as one of the employees Bernard. Later she calls Megamind (Bernard) and schedules a date to try and decipher Megaminds plan (which Megamind is all to happy to accept). The two become closer and and Roxanne eventually finds out Megamind's plan to create a hero to fight.

She later teams up with him to try and defeat Tighten. They discover that Metro Man isn't really dead, just retired. Megamind turns himself in and Roxanne goes to confront Tighten, which only leads to her to capture, presumably to lure Megamind out so he can kill him. Megamind comes to her rescue and during an epic battle. Roxanne notices the Invisible Car and tells Megamind.

Tighten then corners Roxanne at the fountain, about to kill her using heat vision (exactly how he tried to kill Megamind). However, Megamind lands between them, and defuses Tighten. Roxanne then congratulates Megaamind on his victory, to which he replies that this time, he had a reason to win: her. She is last seen with Megamind and the mayor of Metro City dancing to "Bad".
