The cranky beast with a heart of gold returns to the big screen in this sequel to the computer-animated smash hit
Shrek. After massive green ogre
Shrek (voice of
Mike Myers) and his new bride,
Princess Fiona (voice of
Cameron Diaz), return from their honeymoon, they receive an invitation to visit
Fiona's parents,
King Harold (voice of
John Cleese) and
Queen Lillian (voice of
Julie Andrews), who are the monarchs of The Land Far, Far Away. However, the king and queen are more than a bit alarmed to discover their new son-in-law is a monster the color of algae, and that their daughter's little problem with a magical spell gone wrong has turned into a full-time skin condition. Certain this isn't the sort of "happily ever after" they dreamed of for their daughter,
King Harold decides to take
Shrek out of the picture and return
Fiona to her former beauty with the help of
Prince Charming (voice of
Rupert Everett),
the Fairy Godmother (voice of
Jennifer Saunders), and ogre-slaying feline
Puss in Boots (voice of
Antonio Banderas).
Shrek 2 also features the voice of
Eddie Murphy returning as
Donkey, as well as
Larry King as an
Ugly Stepsister.
