Shrek the Third is a American computer-animated comedy film directed by Chris Miller and co-directed by Raman Hui. It is the third installment in the Shrek film franchise that serves as a sequel to 2001’s Shrek and 2004’s Shrek 2.
The film stars Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, Cameron Diaz, Antonio Banderas, Rupert Everett, Julie Andrews and John Cleese reprising their voice roles from the previous films, along with new additions such as Justin Timberlake as Arthur Pendragon and Eric Idle as Merlin. In The Third, Prince Charming is plotting to overthrow Shrek and Fiona, who have inherited the throne following King Harold’s death. Shrek, who believes an ogre does not fit in to be king and does not want to rule the kingdom, attempts to convince Fiona’s underachieving, 16-year-old cousin Artie to reign instead.
Shrek and Princess Fiona are to set to succeed the dying King Harold, but Shrek’s attempts to serve as the Regent during the King’s medical leave end in disaster. He insists that an ogre as king isn’t ideal and that there must be someone else. Before he dies, Harold tells Shrek of another heir: his nephew, Arthur “Artie” Pendragon. Meanwhile, Prince Charming vows to become King of Far Far Away and avenge the death of his mother, the Fairy Godmother. Charming goes to the Poison Apple tavern and persuades fairy tale villains to fight for their “happily ever after”.
