Shrek Forever After/Trivia

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Trivia about Shrek Forever After includes:

  • Actor Allusion:
    • Donkey's line "I had my mouth open and everything" actually came from part of his "Delirious" routine.
    • Donkey very poorly sings the final line of Whitney Houston's "Greatest Love Of All", a reference to Eddie Murphy's role as the incredibly untalented Randy Watson in Coming to America.
  • Deleted Role: Justin Timberlake's scenes as Arthur were cut.
  • Talking to Themselves: Walt Dohrn voiced Rumpel and Krekraw.
  • What Could Have Been: Paul McCartney originally was in talks to voice Rumpelstiltskin, even going as far as having a musical number for him planned with a song written by McCartney himself.
