Eddie Murphy would like to do one movie combining every role he's done.The 63-year-old actor is thrilled to be reprising his role as Donkey in the upcoming fifth movie in the DreamWorks Animation franchise, and would love to reprise any one of his roles as long as the right script came along.He told Australia's Who magazine: "Sure. We're just doing another Shrek, which is going to be great. We already did Coming 2 America and we're working on a new script for another movie right now. But I like the idea of maybe doing a mash-up movie with all my characters and have me play them all. That would be fun. But if the idea is good and the script is right, I would return to any one of my characters again."Mike Myers, Cameron Diaz and Eddie are all on board to reprise their roles for the next instalment,...

Eddie Murphy has made sure to don some of the most fan-favorite roles throughout his star-studded career, with his iconic Beverly Hills Cop role of Axel Foley ranking as one of his best ones to date. Even then, despite holding some really significant titles to his role like Coming to America and Trading Places, the actor holds some serious regrets about the roles he turned down.

As it turns out, one other $351 million comedy movie that he was offered but ended up turning down eventually became one of his biggest regrets in Hollywood. This movie was 1988’s Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

The 1986 war drama "Platoon" was Oliver Stone's fourth film as a director, but it proved to be his breakout in the public consciousness. Before 1986, Stone helmed two horror movies and a biopic of war photographer Richard Boyle ("Salvador"), but "Platoon" put him on the map. It was nominated for eight Academy Awards, and won four, including Best Picture and Best Director. Stone immediately emerged as an enfent terrible, ready to interrogate and criticize previously romanticized American institutions. He also became wildly ambitious, seemingly possessing the temerity to assume his films would change the way the public thinks. In some cases, he was right.
Stone wore his politics on his sleeve, and often spoke about how much he hated the American right wing. Two of his films are deeply critical biopics of Republican presidents, and several of his more recent documentaries analyze politicians in power. He has turned his lens on Vladimir Putin,...

Jim Carrey’s iconic transformation scene in The Mask is legendary, but few know the lengths he went to deliver one of the film’s most iconic scenes. Believe it or not, it was filmed while the actor battled a monster flu! Carrey was so sick, he should’ve been in a hospital bed, not on set. Despite constantly fighting chills and nausea, he pushed through, bringing his signature energy to life.

Reader, you have been lied to! Film history is littered with unfairly maligned classics, whether critics were too eager to review the making of rather than the finished product, or they suffered from underwhelming ad campaigns or general disinterest. Let’s revise our takes on some of these films from wrongheaded to the correct opinion.
When Ridley Scott‘s “Blade Runner” was released in the summer of 1982, it met with lukewarm responses from audiences and, though there were outliers, largely mixed reviews. (Pauline Kael’s snide dismissal stuck in Scott‘s craw to the point that he continued to quote it in interviews 40 years later.) Scott had the last laugh, as it only took around 10 years for everyone to come around and acknowledge “Blade Runner” as a classic, and given how wrong the critics were initially one might think they would be careful about underestimating Scott again. Yet when Scott...

![Pierre Coffin in Minions: The Rise of Gru (2022)](https://cdn.statically.io/img/m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BNjhlNWMwY2ItMmJmZi00Yzg0LWJkYmUtOTU5MDQwYzM2NzQ3XkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMTEyMjM2NDc2._V1_QL75_UY281_CR89,0,500,281_.jpg)
The news that both 'Minions 3' and 'Shrek 5' are in the works is a good reminder that there are many hotly anticipated sequels, prequels, and spin-offs coming soon to theaters and TV. Marketing movies is expensive—often an additional 30% of a film’s production budget—so studios rely on brand recognition to ensure their films have the widest possible reach with moviegoers. Although there is a fine line between fandom and fatigue, there are several reasons for entertainment fans to get excited for familiar characters on the horizon.
'Minions 3'
Hot on the heels of ‘Despicable Me 4,’ which is currently lighting up the box office, Universal and Illumination have announced that ‘Minions 3’ is in the works, targeting June 30, 2027 as its release date. The film will be directed by Pierre Coffin, who helmed the first three ‘Despicable Me’ films and the first ‘Minions’ movie.
‘Shrek 5’
As announced July 9, Dreamworks has set July 1, 2026 as the release date for ‘Shrek 5,’ the seventh film in the franchise, counting the two Puss in Boots films. Eddie Murphy, Cameron Diaz, and Mike Myers are all on board for the sequel, but no word yet on whether Antonio Banderas will be in the cast.
‘Kraven the Hunter’
Sony’s Spider-Man universe suffered a bump in the road early this year when its February release of ‘Madame Web’ misfired at the box office. Now that Venom is getting his ‘Last Dance’ in October and ‘Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse’ is still in production, the studio is keen on keeping their Marvel properties bringing in new audiences. The next spin-off character to grace the screen will be Spider-Man foe Kraven the Hunter in his first on-screen appearance. Starring Aaron Taylor-Johson (as Kraven) and Russell Crowe, the film is looking for a slightly older audience and will sport an R rating
‘Gladiator II’
The first trailer recently dropped for the follow-up to the 2000 classic, ‘Gladiator.’ The all-star cast, epic action set pieces, and reputation of its director, Ridley Scott, mean there’s a lot riding on this November release. Read more about the cast in our “who’s who” breakdown of the trailer.

Susan Lucci is a National Ambassador for the American Heart Association’s Go Red for Women movement. She knows firsthand how quickly heart issues can arise and how serious they are. The soap vet had open-heart surgery in 2018 after rushing to the hospital amid symptoms of shortness of breath and back pain. The doctors found a huge blockage in her heart and put in a stent.

DreamWorks Animation has officially announced that Shrek 5 is in development, and is set to hit theaters on July 1, 2026.
Original voice actors Mike Myers (Shrek), Eddie Murphy (Donkey) and Cameron Diaz (Princess Fiona) are all set to return, but we're not sure if Antonio Banderas will be back as Puss in Boots despite the massive success of his recent solo adventure, The Last Wish.
The movie will be helmed by Walt Dohrn, who served as a writer and artist on Shrek 2 and Shrek the Third, and as head of story on Shrek Forever After, in which he also voiced Rumpelstiltskin. Shrek 5 will be produced by franchise regular Gina Shay and Illumination founder Chris Meledandri; Brad Ableson will serve as co-director.

Shrek is one of the most iconic animated films of all time. Being a joy ride for people of all age groups, the film series was immortalized in the film industry. While the genius of DreamWorks can be thanked for it, there is no denying that the cast and their voice acting can be heavily credited for the film’s success. Its ability to not take itself too seriously made it a cult classic that people continue to visit, more than two decades after its release.

DreamWorks Animation has more green in its future.
The studio announced on Tuesday that the beloved franchise “Shrek” is coming back to theaters with a fifth installment. What’s more, “Shrek 5” has planted its flag on a date two years hence—July 1, 2026, to be precise. The studio made its declaration via social media, deploying Smash Mouth’s “All Star” and its earworm herald of “someBODY once told me.” An ogre-ifi-ed numeral 5 then did a little dance.

Confirmed for the voices are Mike Myers, the titular gassy ogre with a pure heart, Cameron Diaz as his beloved Princess Fiona, and Eddie Murphy as Donkey, the wisecracking donkey. It is unclear if Antonio Banderas, who voices Puss in Boots, will make an appearance.

We have the ability to contain our excitement for Shrek news — what we lack is the capacity! It’s been 14 long years since Shrek Forever After closed the fairytale book on DreamWorks’ beloved green-eared franchise, but now — coming off the back of the astonishingly great Puss In Boots: The Last Wish — the animation studio’s long-gestating fivequel has set a release date. As reported by THR, Shrek 5 is set to hit cinemas on 1 July, 2026, coinciding with the first film’s anniversary. And better yet, the original quadrilogy’s All Star cast — Mike Myers! Cameron Diaz! Eddie Murphy! — are back back back, too.
Plot details for this one are currently under wraps (presumably in the highest room of the tallest tower), but Puss In Boots: The Last Wish *did* end with the swashbuckling Spanish kitty setting sail for Far, Far Away, so don’t be surprised if Antonio Banderas’ name...

Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy and Cameron Diaz will all return for the antic fairytale sequel Shrek 5, DreamWorks Animation has announced. It’s out in July 2026.
“Not too Far, Far Away,” DreamWorks Animation wrote on Twitter/X/Muskbook last night (the 9th July) as it announced that fairytale comedy sequel Shrek 5 will emerge in 2026.
Respectfully, this is a lie. The space year 2026 is an incredibly long two years away. By then we’ll all be flying around using jetpacks and taking regular trips to a branch of McDonalds on the moon, where we’ll eat burgers and fries in pill form. Also, AI will have taken over the planet and none of us will have jobs.
On a more positive note, DreamWorks has confirmed that Mike Myers will return to voice the grouchy, green ogre of the title, Eddie Murphy will reprise his role as the voluble Donkey, and...

In exciting news for everyone who loved the original Shrek films, DreamWorks just announced Shrek 5 is officially happening! Mark your calendars for July 1, 2026, because that’s when we’ll see our favorite big, green ogre return to theaters.
Even better, Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, and Cameron Diaz are all reprising their roles as Shrek, Donkey, and Fiona. I can’t wait to hear their iconic voices again! DreamWorks dropped a teaser too that plays “All Star” and says “The All-Star Returns.” Looks like they aim to capture that same magic from the first movie.

Veteran Shrek director Walt Dohrn is helming the project this time around. He’s worked on past movies in the franchise, so the tone should feel very familiar.

DreamWorks has officially announced Shrek 5: the long-anticipated sequel is set for release in theaters on July 1st, 2026, with original cast members Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, and Cameron Diaz all returning.
Shrek 5 will mark the first new installment of the beloved animated franchise in 16 years. The film was initially slated for release following Shrek Forever After in 2010, but those plans were scrapped by former DreamWorks CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg. With NBCUniveral’s purchase of DreamWorks in 2016, however, there’s been a renewed focus to bring Shrek back to the big screen — though it’s taken a bit longer than anticipated.
In 2022, DreamWorks released the Shrek spin-off film, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, which included a mid-credits scene that set the stage for Shrek 5. It was later revealed that Illumination CEO Chris Meledandri would be developing the story for Shrek 5, with Michael McCullers (The Boss Baby) writing its screenplay.

By now everyone heard that Meghan Markle has her own lifestyle brand called American Riviera Orchard. But after a soft launch of jams and dog biscuits, fans hoping to get any information about other items the duchess will be selling and when they can be purchased have been met with radio silence. That has left many royal watchers wondering if someone behind the scenes is questioning the brand’s potential success or if Meghan herself is rethinking the strategy.
Well, now a PR expert is sharing exactly what the former Suits star needs to have for her brand to flourish.

When Jamie Foxx suffered a “medical complication” in the spring of last year while filming Back in Action, it raised a lot of questions. Some of it was conspiracy bull centering around the overall secrecy (read: privacy that was meant to give the family time to themselves) but most was genuine concern for the actor. So many of his fans weren’t just curious as to what happened but wondered if and when he would return to the spotlight. Thankfully, his recovery has been a steady one and he has been open with his fans. In recent statements, he detailed part of what made the entire ordeal so scary.
In a new video posted by The Art of Dialogue (via People), Jamie Foxx told a small crowd, “Look, April 11th last year. Bad headache. I asked my boy for an Advil.” Snap. “I was gone for 20 days. I don’t remember anything.

More than a year later, Jamie Foxx is getting candid about his mysterious health scare that apparently left him comatose for three weeks.
The Academy Award winner shared the story of his April 2023 illness with a group of people on the streets of downtown Phoenix, Arizona in a video shared Monday on social media.
“April 11 last year, [I had] a bad headache, asked my boy for an Advil,” Foxx began in the clip, snapping his fingers. “I was gone for 20 days. I don’t remember anything.”
He continued, “So, I’m in Atlanta, my sister and my daughter took me to the first doctor. He said nah, gave me a cortisone shot. Next doctor said, ‘Something’s going on up there.’ I won’t say it on camera.”
Jamie was hospitalized last April following an undisclosed “medical complication” on the Atlanta set of his upcoming Netflix movie Back in Action with Cameron Diaz.

Jamie Foxx has provided the first brief details about the medical emergency that left him hospitalized last year. No official cause has ever been disclosed about the incident, although the Oscar-winning actor recently appeared on video (via People) telling a group in Phoenix, Ariz. that his emergency all started with a “bad headache” in April 2023.
“I asked my boy for an Advil,” Foxx said and then snapped his fingers. “I was gone for 20 days. I don’t remember anything. So they told me — I’m in Atlanta — so they told me my sister and my daughter took me to the first doctor. … They gave me a cortisone shot.”
Foxx said doctors ultimately told him that “something’s going on up there,” pointing to his head. But he added: “I won’t say it on camera.”
Variety has reached out to Foxx’s representatives for additional comment.

Gather around Shrek fans, for we have some good news. After 15 years since we enjoyed the swampy land of Shrek, Princess Fiona, and their ever-loving and witty sidekick Donkey, talk of the town is that a new movie has already gone into production. And that is not all, as a standalone movie about Donkey is also in the works.

Eddie Murphy voiced Donkey is one of the most beloved characters of the franchise, and it is to the delight of fans that his character is getting his own movie to share.

Eddie Murphy has confirmed that recording sessions for Shrek 5 have begun, and there’s a Donkey spin-off happening too.
Shrek is one of the most successful animated film franchises in history. With four films and the Puss In Boots spin-offs collectively grossing $4 billion, it is perhaps no surprise that Shrek 5 is on the way.
What is a surprise is how long it is taking to make. The last instalment, Shrek Forever After, was released in 2010 (although the last two Shrek films – while successful – were received nowhere near as well as the first two).
Now, 14 years later, production on Shrek 5 appears to be underway. Not only that, but once it is finished, work will begin on a Donkey spin-off film.
Eddie Murphy confirmed as much during an interview to promote Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F, the incoming fourth instalment of the Beverly Hills Cop franchise, which streams on Netflix from the 4th July.

In a surprising revelation, Eddie Murphy has announced that production on “Shrek 5” is already underway, with a potential release date set for 2025. The comedian, known for voicing the beloved character Donkey in the franchise, shared this information during interviews for his upcoming film “Beverly Hills Cop: Axel Foley.”
“We started doing ‘Shrek 5’ months ago,” Murphy told Collider. “I recorded the first act, and we’ll be finishing it up this year.” He added, “I think it’s coming out in 2025.”
But the excitement doesn’t stop there. Murphy also confirmed that a Donkey spinoff movie is in development, following the success of the “Puss in Boots” films. “Donkey’s gonna have his own movie. We’re gonna do Donkey as well,” he stated.
This news comes after reports from Variety in April 2023 suggesting that Universal and DreamWorks Animation were considering a fifth “Shrek” movie with the original cast, including Mike Myers...

Eddie Murphy says he’s already recorded the first act of Shrek 5, which DreamWorks Animation hasn’t even announced yet, and that there’s also a Donkey spinoff movie that’s bound to happen.
Murphy also said about Shrek 2025, “I think it’s coming out in 2025”
As Inside Out 2 has proven, and even 2022’s Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, when it comes to animated sequels with moviegoers, absence makes the heart grow fonder and the box office bigger, those two titles respectively grossing $724.3M and close to a half billion worldwide.

Eddie Murphy revealed in a new interview with Collider that he has already begun voice recording for “Shrek 5” and will next do a Donkey spinoff movie. Variety reported in April 2023 that Universal and DreamWorks Animation were eyeing a fifth “Shrek” movie with the original cast and a Donkey spinoff film for Murphy. It now seems like those projects are definitely happening, according to Murphy.
Variety has reached out to Universal for comment.
“We started doing [‘Shrek 5’] months ago,” Murphy told Collider. “I did this. I recorded the first act, and we’ll be doing it this year, we’ll finish it up. ‘Shrek’ is coming out and Donkey’s gonna have his own movie. We’re gonna do Donkey as well.

If the Toyota Prius, the world’s first modern hybrid car, had landed with a thud, we’d be living in a different world. Carmakers would have thought twice before launching rival models. And we’d have less reason for hope in the battle against rising temperatures. That it instead proved a hit is thanks in no small part to Hollywood — and Deborah Levin.
In 2000, when Levin took over as CEO of the Environmental Media Association (Ema), she was uncertain. “I had never done nonprofits. I didn’t know anything about the environment. I knew nothing. I sort of fell into this because I was incredibly inspired by the mission,” Levin tells The Hollywood Reporter. The organization, founded in 1989, was known for its advocacy of green initiatives and environmentally themed entertainment, leveraging Hollywood’s social influence to change industry and consumer behavior. Levin needed a transformative new campaign.

Actress Scarlett Johansson finally escaped our long-running photo gallery of the greatest living actresses to never receive an Oscar nomination. And she did it in grand style by picking up two for her 2019 films “Marriage Story” and “Jojo Rabbit.” Just recently, Kirsten Dunst had been in our gallery for years and then earned her first Academy Award bid for “The Power of the Dog.” Emily Blunt was finally nominated for “Oppenheimer” years after winning her first SAG Award for “A Quiet Place.”
In 2014, “Friends” star Jennifer Aniston looked like a lock to receive her first Academy Award nomination for “Cake,” following citations at the Golden Globes, SAG, and Broadcast Film Critics. Yet on Oscar morning, the Emmy-winner was left out. Aniston’s “Friends” costar and fellow Emmy-victor Lisa Kudrow found herself in a similar situation when she received an Independent Spirit Awards nomination for “The Opposite of Sex” yet came up short at the Oscars.

Since Justin Timberlake’s June 18 Dwi arrest in Long Island, New York, some of the “SexyBack” singer’s quotes have resurfaced for better or for worse, but mostly worse. Among them is one in which the Grammy winner admitted to often getting a bad case of road rage.
Justin admitted to being an ‘a**hole’ behind the wheel in 2006
18 years prior to being charged with driving while intoxicated after reportedly blowing a stop sign and driving on the wrong side of the road in the Hamptons village of Sag Harbor, New York, the Nsync alum touched on his “road rage.”
Timberlake picked up his interviewer in a black Porsche 911 convertible outside Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles, California, as part of a 2006 GQ cover story.

Delighting her fans as she sent out low-key vibes, Drew wound up with Yahoo! reporting that her Ig had gotten "attacked" by fan love — she also gained over 270,000 likes.
