Since its announcement in July 2024, fans have been eager to see what the next chapter holds for their beloved ogre\u2014and now, with the countdown to the premiere underway, we get our first full glimpse.<\/p>\n<p>One of the biggest questions on everyone\u2019s mind is the voice cast for the Latin American Spanish dub. The good news: Eugenio Derbez returns as Donkey, a beloved character he has voiced for years. But the mystery remains\u2014who will be the voice of Shrek this time around?<\/p>\n<p>The trailer shows our iconic duo embarking on a new adventure to the city of Far, Far Away\u2014called M\u00e1s, M\u00e1s, Mucho M\u00e1s Lejano in Spanish\u2014where Donkey seeks a makeover, though things don\u2019t exactly go as planned. This fresh setting promises new laughs and surprises for longtime fans.<\/p>\n<p>On the animation front, some viewers might be taken aback. Unlike the previous four films produced by DreamWorks, Shrek 5 is being developed by Illumination, the studio behind the Despicable Me franchise. This means the animation style leans more toward Illumination\u2019s signature look, which could feel like a departure from the original aesthetic.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the voice cast, social media buzz has been intense about whether the original Latin American voices will return. So far, Eugenio Derbez is the only confirmed returning actor, as evidenced in the trailer. Dulce Guerrero, who voices Fiona, mentioned in a recent interview that she hasn\u2019t been contacted yet, likely due to contractual reasons. Meanwhile, the voice behind Shrek in the trailer is noticeably different\u2014not Alfonso Obreg\u00f3n, who previously voiced the character.<\/p>\n<p>As the release date approaches, this mix of nostalgia and change sets the stage for a Shrek 5 that both honors the past and explores new creative directions. For fans and newcomers alike, the question remains: who will bring Shrek to life this time?<\/p>\n<div class=\"embed-x\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\"><p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/laredcincoradio\/status\/2066912101797351546\"><\/a>\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The much-anticipated trailer for Shrek 5 has finally arrived, stirring a mix of excitement, skepticism, and curiosity across Mexico and Latin America.
