Overview
- Disney+, which announced the move Thursday, now streams Shrek (2001) through Shrek Forever After (2010) in the United States for Hulu bundle subscribers.
- Access is limited to users on the Hulu on Disney+ bundle, which requires a combined plan rather than the base Disney+ subscription.
- Disney does not own these DreamWorks films, which appear through a licensing arrangement, and Universal Parks and Resorts retains the franchise’s theme-park rights.
- This marks the first time the Shrek films have appeared on Disney+ in the U.S., after previous availability in select international markets.
- The rollout arrives ahead of a planned 2027 Shrek 5 theatrical release, drawing fresh attention to a series from DreamWorks Animation founded in 1994 by former Disney executive Jeffrey Katzenberg.
