You'll have to wait a little longer to learn if all that glitters is gold. Universal has announced that DreamWorks Animation's "Shrek 5" will be moving from July 1, 2026, to December 23, 2026. In its place, Universal will open Illumination's "Minions 3," which was previously supposed to come out a year later (June 30, 2027). That's the kind of chaotic scheduling a minion would really embrace. Additionally, an untitled Illumination film has moved from March 19, 2027 to June 30, 2027 (the previous "Minions 3" date). "Shrek 5" sees Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy and Cameron Diaz . . .
