Next summer, audiences will finally be reunited with Shrek, his family, and their quirky friends. This highly anticipated return comes more than a decade after Shrek Forever After (released in 2010). After such a significant passage of time, it’s clear that much has transpired in the ogre’s life, and his children are now considerably older.
Previously, it was announced that Zendaya would voice Felicia, while Skyler Gisondo (recently seen as Jimmy Olsen in the latest Superman adaptation) and Marcello Hernández are set to lend their voices to the twins, Fergus and Farkle.
Today brings official confirmation of another crucial role. While perhaps not entirely surprising to long-time fans, the news, directly from the actress herself, is undoubtedly a delightful revelation.
During her appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon this week, Cameron Diaz seized the opportunity to confirm that she will be reprising her iconic role as Princess Fiona in Shrek 5. She will be joining fellow original cast members Mike Myers and Eddie Murphy, who are also confirmed to return as Shrek and Donkey, respectively, completing the beloved ogre trio.
