Disney4me Posted March 1 Report Share Posted March 1 We’ve been waiting for Shrek 5 for about 15 years (yes… it’s been fifteen years since the last Shrek movie; we triple-checked!!), and we finally got a sneak peek at the new movie. Shrek, Princess Fiona, and Donkey Universal Pictures just dropped the trailer for Shrek 5, but did you catch who’s in it? Shrek 5 is coming to theaters on Christmas 2026, 15 years after Shrek Forever After, which came out in 2010. We’re so glad to see actors reprising their roles, but the film is also introducing Zendaya as Shrek’s daughter, Felicia! ©Universal Pictures Mike Myers, Cameron Diaz, and Eddie Murphy are all coming back as Shrek, Fiona, and Donkey. The gang’s getting back together, people! Watch the teaser below. At the end of Shrek the Third, Fiona and Shrek have triplets: two boys and a girl. While we don’t know who will play the two boys yet, we can’t WAIT to learn more. We’re so surprised to see Zendaya playing one of the kids. The new movie shows Felicia in her teenage years, and apparently, ogre teens are just like human teens, and she is already annoyed at her parents. ©Universal Pictures Oh, and can we talk about the JOKES?! Universal just acknowledged all those cringe-y (or hilarious, depending on your age) Gen Z Shrek memes. Poor Shrek — the internet has reached his swamp! ©Universal Pictures While Zendaya has been famous since her Disney Channel days, she’s recently had big roles in popular shows, including Challengers, Spider-Man, and Dune. She even produced and starred in Euphoria, the popular HBO show! ©Universal Picture Universal and Dreamworks have recently been giving Shrek lots of love in the theme parks! Despite the closing of Shrek 4-D, the interactive theater show at Universal Hollywood in 2017, and Universal Orlando in 2022, Shrek has a whole area to himself in Orlando. You can meet Shrek, Fiona, and Donkey and climb in an ogre-themed playground in DreamWorkd Land. There are even swamp-themed snacks like the Shrekzel, a pretzel that looks like Shrek, with green cheese to dip it in! Shrekzel! Fans were just as shocked as we were when we heard Zendaya’s voice in the Shrek 5 trailer. But if this is just the start of the details about the movie, we’re interested to see what other famous actors will pop up in it. We’re big fans of the movies and can’t wait to watch the new film next year. Stay up to date with Disney Food Blog for more! Heading to Universal Orlando?
