"Shrek 5" Release Date Delayed Again

Yara Sameh Universal and DreamWorks Animation have postponed the fifth 'Shrek' film from December 23, 2026, to June 30, 2027. This is the second delay for 'Shrek 5,' which was originally set for July 2026. The studio didn't provide a reason for the hold-up, but Universal has fielded outsized success with animated fare — such as 'Despicable Me' franchise, 'How to Train Your Dragon' and 'The Super Mario Bros. Movie' — in the summer months. 'Shrek 5' will open less than a week after Sony's animated 'Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse.' On its prior date in December 2026, the family film was scheduled to debut in the wake of Disney's 'Avengers: Doomsday' and 'Ice Age 6.' As part of the move, Universal has shifted up the premiere of Illumination's Untitled Event Film to April 16, 2027, instead of its original late June date. Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy and Cameron Diaz are returning to the fictional land of Far, Far Away in their signature roles as Shrek, Donkey and Fiona, while Zendaya is joining the cast. "Shrek 5' will be directed by franchise veterans Conrad Vernon and Walt Dohrn. The entry will debut on the big screen a quarter-century after the original 2001 animated smash, which put a spin on the concept of Happily Ever After, as told by a misunderstood ogre and his merry band of fairytale folk. 'Shrek' became an instant hit with nearly $500 million globally as well as the first-ever Oscar winner for animated feature. The film was followed by three sequels 2004's 'Shrek 2,' 2007's 'Shrek the Third' and 2010's 'Shrek Forever After' and two 'Puss in Boots' spinoffs. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha Videos & Features Story behind Trending Jessica Radcliffe Death Video News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani
