Shrek 5 Just Got a Disappointing Update (And Marvel Might Be To Blame)

As DreamWorks delays the release of “Shrek 5”, Universal Studios has decided to shift the release date for their upcoming film “Illumination’s Untitled Event Film”. Originally scheduled for a late June release in 2027, the new release date is now April 16, 2027. The fifth Shrek movie, which will be released seventeen years after “Shrek Forever After” and twenty-six years since the franchise’s debut, draws inspiration from classic fairytales featuring an ogre named Shrek and a group of fairytale characters. The first Shrek film was a box office success, earning $484.94 million globally on a budget of approximately $60 million.
