After a 15-year hiatus, the beloved “Shrek” franchise is set to return with its fifth installment, “Shrek 5,” scheduled for release on December 23, 2026. This release date coincides with the 25th anniversary of the original “Shrek” film, aiming to evoke nostalgia among its audience. citeturn0search1
The original voice cast—Mike Myers (Shrek), Eddie Murphy (Donkey), and Cameron Diaz (Princess Fiona)—will reprise their iconic roles. Joining them is Zendaya, who will voice Felicia, the teenage daughter of Shrek and Fiona. Felicia, characterized by her red hair and nose ring, is expected to play a central role in the film’s narrative
The film is directed by Walt Dohrn and Conrad Vernon, with Gina Shay and Chris Meledandri producing. A recently released teaser showcases Shrek interacting with the Magic Mirror, which displays various internet memes featuring him. This inclusion of Shrek memes indicates the film’s engagement with contemporary internet culture, maintaining the franchise’s tradition of satire.
However, the teaser has received mixed reactions. Some fans have criticized the new animation style, leading to comparisons with the initial backlash faced by the “Sonic the Hedgehog” movie. In response to the criticism, DreamWorks disabled comments on the teaser’s YouTube release.
Despite these reactions, anticipation remains high for “Shrek 5.” The film aims to blend familiar characters with new elements, appealing to both long-time fans and new audiences. As the release date approaches, more details about the plot and additional characters are expected to emerge, promising a fresh yet nostalgic experience in the “Shrek” universe.
