Hey Shrek fans! We've got some ogre-sized news that’s bound to make you roar with excitement! DreamWorks Animation just dropped a bombshell on social media: "Shrek 5" is officially happening, and our favorite stars are returning! Mike Myers as Shrek, Cameron Diaz as Fiona, and Eddie Murphy as Donkey will all be back. Unfortunately, no word yet on Antonio Banderas reprising his role as Puss in Boots.
A Fairytale Comeback
Mark your calendars because "Shrek 5" is set to hit theaters on July 1, 2026. That's right, 25 years after the original "Shrek" film first graced our screens in May 2001. The last time we saw Shrek and the gang was in "Shrek Forever After" back in 2010. Since then, we’ve enjoyed several spinoffs, including the 2022 hit "Puss in Boots: The Last Wish." But there’s nothing like the original team, right?
Flashback to the Beginning
Let’s take a quick trip down memory lane. The original "Shrek" movie follows our beloved grumpy green ogre, Shrek, as he tries to reclaim his swamp from an invasion of fairy tale creatures. Thanks to the not-so-nice Lord Farquaad, Shrek finds himself on a mission to rescue Princess Fiona, with a little help from his hilarious sidekick, Donkey. The movie’s blend of humor, heart, and unforgettable characters made it an instant classic.
Eddie Murphy Spills the Beans
Here’s a fun fact! Eddie Murphy recently spilled some exciting news about "Shrek 5" while promoting his new film "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F." In an interview with Collider, Murphy revealed, "We started doing 'Shrek' four or five months ago. I recorded the first act, and we'll be doing it this year, we'll finish it up." But wait, there’s more! Murphy hinted at a Donkey spinoff, adding, "Another 'Shrek' is coming out, and Donkey's gonna have his own movie." How cool is that?
