Shrek

DreamWorks’ fairy-tale subverter celebrates its 25th anniversary in 2026.

Mike Myers voices a grumpy ogre who teams up with a talkative donkey (Eddie Murphy) to rescue Princess Fiona (Cameron Diaz).

The 2001 animated film redefined animated comedy, won the first-ever Best Animated Feature Oscar, and launched a franchise that reshaped family movies.

The series is still running strong, with Shrek 5 due to release in June 2027.
