Both actors, as well as Cameron Diaz, have been confirmed to return in Shrek 5.DreamWorks Animation, the production company behind all six films in the Shrek franchise, confirmed the news on Wednesday, announcing it would be released on 1 July 2026.
Making $487m at worldwide cinemas, Shrek’s first outing turned DreamWorks – which had produced a steady series of modest hits at that point, including Chicken Run and Antz – into a bona fide powerhouse. In 2020, Shrek was selected for preservation in the Library of Congress’ National Film Registry, reserved for films of historical, cultural or aesthetic significance.
It is unconfirmed as yet whether Banderas has signed on for Shrek 5, now the seventh feature film in the franchise. “We started doing months ago,” he told Collider. “I did this. I recorded the first act, and we’ll be doing it this year.”
