There Are Over 40 "Shrek" Characters, But I Bet You Can't Name Just 17
With news of Shrek 5 coming in December 2026, there's no better time than now to revisit the original movies that started it all.
Are you ready for the challenge Shrek fans?
Here's how this quiz works: You will be prompted to name one character for every letter of the alphabet, minus I, J, N, O, U, V, X, Y, and Z. This quiz only includes characters from the Shrek franchise released in 2001–2010 (no Puss in Boots spinoffs). If a character has a title before their name, the first letter of the title is used (ex: Lord Farquaad would apply for L, but not for F). Spelling counts, so try your best to get as close as you can. Good luck!

How is Eddie Murphy now related to Martin Lawrence?
Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence are now related. The two actors are delighted that Eddie's son Eric Murphy, 35, and Martin's daughter Jasmin Lawrence, 29, "ran off and got married" at a "church" a couple of weeks ago, following their engagement in November 2024. Eddie - who starred in the 1999 Universal comedy-thriller 'Life' with Martin - spilled on their decision to elope to Jennifer Hudson, 43, on her eponymous talk show, saying: "They got married, like, two weeks ago. "They went off ... everybody was making the big wedding plans, and then they decided they wanted to do something quiet with just the two of them. And then they got married." As Eric and Jasmin opted for a low-key affair, the 'Shrek' star - who has Eric with his former girlfriend Paulette McNeely, who he dated in the 1980s - joked that Martin no longer has to stump up a lot of cash to pay for a lavish wedding for his daughter. He joked: "Yeah, we're in-laws. And he doesn't have to pay for that big wedding now. "They went off and got married at the church. They just had the two of them and the preacher. They had a quiet, little thing. "Some people have like a big party, or something, but they ran off and got married." The 'Big Momma' star - who has Jasmin with his 54-year-old ex-wife Patricia Southall - previously revealed that he was expected to pay for Eric and Jasmin's wedding because Eddie covered the costs of his children's "last six weddings". Appearing on iHeartRadio's 'Big Boy's Neighborhood' in December 2024, Martin said: "Eddie said I gotta pay for it. "He said I gotta pay for it, 'cause he paid for his last daughter's wedding — like the last six weddings — but he said it's my turn now." Eddie's 1985 song 'Party All the Time' was the lead single on his first album 'How Could It Be', and it spent three weeks at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart. However, the 'Beverly Hills Cop' actor insisted he will not be singing if Eric and Jasmin - who began dating in 2021 - have a second wedding that will see the smitten couple say "I do" in front of family and friends or a celebratory party. But, he did not rule out on performing a "duet" with Martin. After Jennifer teased the idea of Eddie picking up a microphone and performing, the dad-of-10 said: "No, I'm not singing! Martin will sing at the wedding. Do a duet. Yeah, maybe."

Internet Obsessed With Why Cat Feels 'Special' When Watching Film
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A TikTok video featuring a black cat with an unusual TV habit has drawn the attention of social media users, who can't cope with how cute it is. The clip, shared on Saturday under the username @itsjojiandmochi, shows the black cat, Joji, lounging on his owner's bed, with his eyes locked on the screen, watching the animated series Flow, which follows the adventure of a lookalike cat. "PSA: this is your sign to have your black cat watch Flow because it makes them feel special," the poster writes in the clip as Joji gets even closer to the TV, following all of the protagonist' movements. "This is his second time watching it and he stays up to watch it," she adds in the caption. Joji really seemed to enjoy watching the lookalike animated version of himself on TV, but can cats actually see what's happening on the screen? Science says possibly, though maybe not always. Some studies have found that felines are able to identify images on TV, but the way they perceive these images in their brain is still unknown. If you find your cat is staring at the television while it is on, it may be for two reasons: they are either stimulated by what's on; or they are being disturbed by it, says the U.K. charity Cats Protection on its website. When your feline watches with narrow pupils and ears, and whiskers pointed forward, they may be stimulated by the image on the TV. If their pupils are dilated and their ears flat, it may be a sign that they're stressed by what is on screen. A Catster article medically reviewed by Dr. Marta Vidal-Abarca says that watching TV programs featuring prey animals and linear movement may be beneficial for cats, as it provides enrichment and stimulation. However, just like with humans, watching too much TV is not healthy, especially when it is used as a substitute for environmental enrichment. Another danger of watching the TV is your cat attacking it, which could cause it to fall on them and get hurt. A stock image shows a black cat lounging on a bed, watching the TV.

One user, Rae, commented: "This reminds me of when I played Shrek for my orange kitty and he meowed so loud the entire time pussnboots was on screen. He was the best kitty in the world." Nicorudu said: "My cat LOVED Flow. Could not stop watching and was SO expressive throughout. Amazing movie." Jameelaamira added: "My black cat has to watch cat TV channels on YT—she loves watching the live feeds of the birds. She'll love this." Newsweek reached out to @itsjojiandmochi for comment via email.
