Shrek and its spin-off Puss in Boots are reportedly getting soft reboots to be overseen by Illumination Animation CEO and Despicable Me producer Chris Meledandri.
As reported by Variety, Meledandri has been asked by Universal Pictures to discover new storylines for its recognizable core cast of characters. In a Variety profile that coincided with the news, it was revealed that Meledandri is looking to revisit the properties, but not totally revamp them. In line with this, he wants to maintain the voice cast that includes Mike Myers as Shrek, Eddie Murphy as Donkey and Antonio Banderas as Puss in Boots.
