Above you can see the first image for the fourth (and supposedly final) Shrek film, Shrek Forever After. USA Today has the first in-depth synopsis of the movie and apparently the Scottish ogre is going It’s a Wonderful Life. Apparently Shrek, after getting married and having kids, feels overly domesticated. He strikes a deal with the underhanded Rumpelstiltskin (voiced by writer Walt Dohrn, not Paul McCartney as IMDb would have you believe), and ends up seeing what the world would be like without him in it. “That translates into Donkey being forced into cart-pulling duty, fat and lazy Puss in Boots trading his sword for a pink bow and the underhanded Rumpelstiltskin ruling the kingdom.” New voices for the film include Kathy Griffin and Kristin Schaal voicing a pair of ogre-hunting witches and a resistance group led by Jon Hamm as, says director Mike Mitchell (Sky High), the best-looking ogre you’ve ever seen. Hit the jump to learn why I wouldn’t be sad if I lived in a world without the Shrek franchise in it.
