Shrek’s stabby tabby is down to his last life in Puss In Boots: The Last Wish

gamesradar.com:

Swashbuckling swordsman Puss In Boots was the breakout character of the Shrek franchise, so much so that after a dormant decade Dreamworks is returning to their world of off-kilter fairytales for a second solo adventure about the debonair feline assassin, memorably voiced by Antonia Banderas. 

The inspired premise: after a care-free (some might say reckless) few years Puss has burned through eight of his nine lives, and goes in search of a wishing star to top up his extra lives.

“When he sets out on that journey, it's an opportunity to see a much deeper side of Puss,” director Joel Crawford says, while talking to Total Film for the latest issue of the magazine, featuring Top Gun on the cover. “He never experiences fear because he’s always so cool in every situation. But now, he's down to his last life, and there's a lot of comedy that comes from him being on his back foot.”

Alongside Banderas, Salma Hayek returns as Puss’ love interest Kitty Softpaws. New additions include What We Do in the Shadows actor Harvey Guillén as Perro, a “charming and hilarious” stray dog (seen below in our exclusive image), John Mulaney as Jack Horner (who has grown up to be a mafia boss) and Wagner Moura as the Big Bad Wolf. 

Also stepping off the page are Goldilocks and the Three Bears who have been reimagined as a cockney crime family voiced by Florence Pugh as Goldilocks, Olivia Colman as Mama Bear, Ray Winstone as Papa Bear and Samson Kayo as Baby Bear.

“There's an element of The Good, The Bad and The Ugly where you've got everybody after this ultimate fairy tale prize which is this last wish,” Crawford says. “It's fun to see them zigzag and run into each other along the way.”
