DreamWorks’ Next Fantasy Adventure Is Officially a Love Letter to the ’90s in New Sneak Peek [Exclusive]

The release of Puss in Boots: The Last Wish at the end of 2022 raised the bar for DreamWorks Animation like never before. At a time when Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse set new expectations for what an animated film could look like at its absolute most dynamic and colorful, Joel Crawford and Januel Mercado brought the studio behind Kung Fu Panda and How to Train Your Dragon into the modern age, giving the Shrek spin-off a gorgeous watercolor style unlike anything in their repertoire. It’s part of the reason why the orange tabby cat’s death-defying tale of derring-do was hailed as one of the company’s best adventures to date. For the directing duo’s next film, however, they’re going even further.
