Once upon a time, Shrek started out as a way of spoofing fairy tales. Its first movie in 2001 was well-loved by many. So well loved, that it spanned two more follow ups. While I enjoy trilogies as much as the next person, one would think Dreamworks would have stop from there and kill the franchise before it gets too cutesy and old. But two years after the last Shrek, movie goers will once again find themselves wathing the giant green Ogre, his princess charming and a band of fairy tale characters we all loved as a child…if only to really see how they all lived happily ever after.

The producers said this would really be the last of the Shrek movies.

The original voices of Mike Myers, Cameron Diaz, Eddie Murphy and Antonio Banderas are all present for this final film. Joining them are Walt Dorhm who will play a villain’s voice, and Mad Men’s Jon Hamm who play another Ogre, albeit a good looking one.

Shrek Forever After centers on Shrek being a doting father to three kids, so much so that he has become overly domesticated. Says Mike Mitchell, the movie’s director: “He has lost his roar. It used to send villagers running away in terror. Now they run to him and ask him to sign their pitchforks and torches.” Shrek then strikes a deal with Rumpelstiltskin but the plans go haywire from there.

Here is the trailer to Shrek Forever After:
