It looks like the ogre will not stop. We get news about Shrek 4 from Jeffrey Katzenberg thanks to an exclusive interview from our friends at moviehole:
Are you doing more ‘’Shrek’’?
Yeah, we’re working on it now, so it’ll be 2010 – and it’ll be in 3D.So when you say 3D are you going to have a 3D version and a normal version?
Yes, but the primary way in which it’ll be shown is 3D.Is it called ‘’Shrek goes Fourth’’?
Yep, Shrek goes Fourth – Shrek goes out into the world, forth! A little play on words.And Mike Myers still isn’t tired of playing Shrek?
Nah, he loves it. The entire cast are onboard for 4 and 5. It’s very much been a great franchise for all of us.
Yea, I didn’t like Shrek 3 at all. It was by far the worst of the series and I have yet to meet a person young or old that enjoyed the picture show. After the trilogy, it would of been a good time to hang up the gloves, but when a film can suck and still make a gazillion dollars – no one is going to stop the sequel machine.
I think part of the reason I am upset is because I would love to see Myers and Murphy do new projects. These guys are hilarious and I personally want to see them venture out and try new things. But not many comedies are going to guarantee the bank that this cartoon behemoth can pony up.
For the kids that are still Shrek crazy, I am certain this will be welcome news. Personally I would rather see more SpongeBob movies. He is a role model for children that I can support and endorse, because he is hilarious.
