Fan Casting Shrek The Third: Responsibility 2007

Shrek the Third (also known as Shrek 3) is a 2007 American computer-animated comedy film. Directed by Peter Jackson, it is the third installment in the Shrek film series and the sequel to Shrek 2. The film stars Dan Stevens, Kevin Hart, Emma Watson, Orlando Bloom, Chris Hemsworth, Cate Blanchett, and Andy Garcia reprising their roles from the previous films, along with new additions such as Tom Holland as Arthur Pendragon and Richard Harris as Merlin. In the plot, Prince Charming is plotting to overthrow Shrek and Fiona, who have inherited the throne following King Harold's death. Shrek, who does not want to rule the kingdom and does not believe an ogre is fit to be king, attempts to convince Fiona's underachieving, 16-year-old cousin Artie to reign instead. Shrek the Third premiered at the Mann Village Theatre, Westwood in Los Angeles on May 6, 2007, and was released in the United States on May 18, 2007, exactly six years after the first film was released. The film grossed $813 million on a budget of $160 million, becoming the fourth highest-grossing film of 2007. It lost the award for the Best animated feature to Ratatouille at the 61st Academy awards. Shrek the Third was the final film in the Shrek franchise to be co-produced by Pacific Data Images, which folded in 2015. The sequel, Shrek Forever After, was released in May 2010.
