From directors Brad Ableson, Walt Dohrn and Conrad Vernon, we have Shrek 5, a new animation/adventure movie. One that follows green ogre Shrek and his sidekick, Donkey, on one more big-city adventure.

Starring Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy and Cameron Diaz, we also get to meet Shrek and Fiona’s three children.

I was hoping to be more enthused by this. Fingers crossed that it doesn’t end up feeling close to as unnecessary as the upcoming live-action Moana film. I’d, of course, love to be wrong. After all, this is only the teaser trailer.

At this point, it’s at least a great sign that all three main cast members have returned. Perhaps all will be well in the end.

I might just rewatch one or two of the previous Shrek movies to get in the zone. Will you be doing the same?

Zendaya, Skyler Gisondo and Marcello Hernández also star.

Happy Film Loving,
