November 5, 2009


Zach Galifianakis (The Hangover) is in negotiations to voice Humpty Dumpty in "Shrek" spin-off Puss in Boots, says The Hollywood Reporter.

Tom Wheeler is writing the screenplay for the prequel, which will feature the voices of Antonio Banderas and Salma Hayek in a story about the events leading up to the feline assassin's first meeting with Shrek & Co. in the second film.

Chris Miller, who co-directed and co-wrote Shrek the Third. wrote an earlier draft of the "Puss" screenplay and is directing the DreamWorks Animation movie.

The film is scheduled for a November 4, 2011 release.

they started 'bigging' this film up when shrek 2 came out, i thought it was in production already! they aren't half taking their time.. while i'm not a huge fan of the series i didn't see a major difference in quality between the films so i'm kinda looking forward to this too

I agree. I was dissapointed with Shrek the Third so I am not looking forward to the fourth Shrek when it comes out next May. I thought adding little baby shreks were pointless and not necessary and they only did it to make the film cute and appeal to the female, baby loving audience.

Misleading headline is misleading.

Galifianakis to Voice Puss in Boots Character

I read it as though Galifianakis was voicing Puss in Boots. Left me wondering where Banderas had gone. Now it makes sense.

Who is this Galifianakis person? I've never heard of him. Will have to check IMDB for his background.

My bad. I know who Zach Galifianakis is. Duh, the hangover. I just never knew his name. He got his start on Tru Calling.
