Universal Pictures releases the first teaser for “Shrek 5,” reviving the DreamWorks animated franchise with returning voice cast members and new characters. Multiple outlets say Mike Myers reprises Shrek, Eddie Murphy returns as Donkey, and Cameron Diaz reprises Fiona. The teaser also introduces Shrek and Fiona’s daughter, Felicia, voiced by Zendaya, along with their other children, Fergus and Farkle, voiced by Marcello Hernandez and Skyler Gisondo. Several reports describe the ogre family setting off on a new adventure that takes them to a magical city described as “Further, Further Away.” The teaser imagery includes Shrek, Fiona and Donkey traveling with the kids and being shown in jail or behind bars, though the details of the broader plot are limited. Coverage also notes the long gap since the prior film “Shrek Forever After,” with “Shrek 5” arriving roughly 17 years later. Release timing is consistently reported as June 30, 2027. While some commentary in one outlet highlights questions about Felicia’s presence in this specific teaser, the character’s inclusion is confirmed through the cast announcements and credits shown in the marketing material.

2 months agoShrek, the little ogre that could, is set for his fifth movie in the DreamWorks franchise.Shrek 5 has been confirmed since 2024, and provides a welcome end to the movies’ 16-year hiatus. Mike Myers will play the titular role, while Cameron Diaz and Eddie Murphy will reprise their roles as Fiona and Donkey, respectively. Originally set to come out in 2026, the flick is now due for release on 30 June, 2027.Still, at least fans can console ourselves with the just-released trailer, despite its notable omission.

After her role in the movie was announced, fans brought up a 2017 X post of hers which read, “I watch Shrek too often in my adulthood”.I watch Shrek too often in my adulthood.— Zendaya (@Zendaya) August 4, 2017“This aged well,” fans said at the time.Related...Tom Holland Seems To Confirm He's Married ZendayaZendaya 'Spent About Three Days Buried Up To Her Neck' For Dramatic Euphoria StuntThe New Shrek 5 Teaser Has Already Split Opinion Right Down The Middle For This 1 Big Reason
