Universal Pictures and DreamWorks Animation have announced that Shrek 5 will release later than planned. Instead of new adventures of the green ogre, viewers will see “Minions 3” from the Illumination studio.

According to Deadline, the studio decided on a recast due to the fact that the Minions franchise has long dominated the box office on Independence Day in the United States. Therefore, the third part of the adventures of Gru’s assistants was postponed from June 30, 2027 to July 1, 2026, replacing the premiere of “Shrek 5”. The latter will now be released six months later – December 23, 2026.
