This fall, everyone’s favorite leche-loving, swashbuckling, fear-defying feline returns in Puss in Boots: The Last Wish. For the first time in more than a decade, DreamWorks Animation presents a new adventure in the “Shrek” universe as daring outlaw Puss in Boots discovers that his passion for peril and disregard for safety have taken their toll. Puss has burned through eight of his nine lives, though he lost count along the way. Getting those lives back will send Puss in Boots on his grandest quest yet.
Antonio Banderas returns as the voice of the notorious Puss in Boots as he embarks on an epic journey into the Black Forest to find the mythical Wishing Star and restore his lost lives. But with only one life left, Puss will have to humble himself and ask for help from his former partner and nemesis: the captivating Kitty Soft Paws (Salma Hayek).
In their quest, Puss and Kitty will be aided—against their better judgment—by a ratty, chatty, relentlessly cheerful mutt, Perro (Harvey Guillén). Together, our trio of heroes will have to stay one step ahead of Goldilocks (Florence Pugh) and the Three Bears Crime Family, “Big” Jack Horner (John Mulaney) and terrifying bounty hunter, The Big Bad Wolf (Wagner Moura). The film also features an all-star comedic cast that includes Olivia Colman, Ray Winstone, Samson Kayo, Anthony Mendez, and Tony nominee Da’Vine Joy Randolph.
The long-awaited follow-up to the 2011 Academy Award®-nominated blockbuster, The Last Wish is directed by Joel Crawford and produced by Mark Swift, the creative team behind DreamWorks Animation’s smash, The Croods: A New Age. The film’s executive producer is Illumination founder and CEO Chris Meledandri.
Since first appearing in Shrek 2 (2004) the character of Puss in Boots has become a global, scene-stealing sensation that has co-starred in two other Shrek sequels and his solo film, as well as in multiple DreamWorks Animation videos and TV series. The “Shrek” and “Puss in Boots” films have collectively earned more than $3.5 billion worldwide.
