Puss in Boots: The Last Order recently hit theaters and should please fans of the Shrek franchise with a postcredits sequence.
(WARNING: Spoilers for Puss in Boots 2)
After confronting the villain, Puss in Boots, Kitty PataMansa and Perro board a ship to Far Far Away, a place well known to Shrek fans. The credits still have fun audience interactions.
The scene promises a reunion with Shrek, Fiona and Donkey, who haven’t appeared on the big screen since Shrek Forever After (2010). According to the voice of Gato, Antonio Banderas (The Legend of Zorro), in an interview with Deadline, there will be another Shrek 5th (via Omelete).
Puss in Boots 2 is the first film in the franchise in over a decade
In 2011, the character, voiced by Spaniard Antonio Banderas, won a spinoff following his success as a supporting character in the Shrek franchise. The film grossed more than $500 million, but the sequel didn’t come until 2022, eleven years later.
In Puss Boots: The Last Wish, the character realizes that he has already lost eight of his nine lives and must fight the wolf. He teams up with an old friend and mortal enemy, Kitty PataMansa, to seek the mythical wishing star and reclaim his nine lives.
Directed by Joel Crawford (The Croods 2: A New Era), the sequel received a more vivid and cartoonish animation style, while ignoring the slightly more realistic traits of the first feature film.
Antonio Banderas and Salma Hayek (Casa Gucci) return to the cast, which also adds new names such as Florence Pugh (Don’t Worry, Darling) and Olivia Colman (The Crown). Highlight for the Brazilian Wagner Moura (Tropa de Elite), who gives the villain Lobo a voice.
