Shrek 5 is Confirmed with Release Date!

A fifth Shrek movie has been confirmed.

Last month, NBCUniversal's CEO Steve Burke told investors that Despicable Me and Minions producer Chris Meledandri would be taking control of the movies. 

NBCUniversal's $3.8 billion acquisition of DreamWorks Animation appears to be rolling along at a faster-than-expected clip and could close as early as late August, according to sources.

DreamWorks animators are said to be somewhat anxious about the company's future though perhaps also soothed by word that Universal will greenlight two DWA films a year.

The Hollywood Reporter now reports that Shrek 5 (official title not yet known) has been given a due date of 2019.

We'll give you more information when we have it!
