Hey all you fairytale fanatics and Fiona fantasizers! Get ready to relive the magic because there’s a whole lotta Shrektacular news brewing!
First up, gotta celebrate DreamWorks’ 30th anniversary, right? And what better way to do that than with a brand new line of Shrek Funko Pops! We’re talking about all your favorite characters, folks – Shrek himself (in all his gloriously green glory), Fiona (both fire-spitting and human form), Puss in Boots (with those signature kitty eyes), Donkey (ready to jabber your ears off), and even Gingy the lovable (and slightly deranged) gingerbread man. These collectible cuties are up for pre-order now, so you can snag them before they vanish like Fiona’s curse at sunrise!
But wait, there’s more! Funko isn’t just stopping at Pops. Oh no, they’re going all out with a whole collection of Shrek plush dolls and mystery minis too. Talk about the perfect way toShrek-ify your shelf (or, should we say, Shrek-shelfie?).
Speaking of Shrek, can we chat about that ever-elusive fifth movie? It’s been 13 years since Shrek Forever After graced our screens, and let’s be honest, it wasn’t exactly happily ever after for the critics. But fear not, Shrek fans, because there’s a glimmer of hope on the horizon!
That’s right, a fifth Shrek movie is officially in the works! It’s a team effort between DreamWorks and Illumination Studios, so you just know it’s going to be an epic animation adventure. Now, we don’t have a plot or release date yet, but that just adds to the mystery and excitement, doesn’t it?
In the meantime, you can always revisit the original masterpiece (or any of the sequels) on Netflix. Just remember, ogres are like onions – they have layers! And speaking of layers, this article is about to peel back one more – the future of the Shrek franchise.
Is Shrek 5 going to be a return to form? Will it capture the magic of the original movie? Only time will tell, but one thing’s for sure – the anticipation is real, and we here at Collider are just as excited as Donkey after a muffin binge! So, stay tuned, folks, because this fairytale definitely isn’t over yet. In the meantime, get ready to welcome the new Funko Pops into your home – they’re like little reminders that sometimes, all you need is a little bit of ogre in your life.
