gorgeously animated too, employing a unique visual style that director Joel Crawford described as a “fairy tale painting look.” And if you’re wondering just how they pulled it off, we’ve got some exclusive videos on the making of the movie.This time around Puss in Boots (voiced once again by Antonio Banderas) realizes he is on the last of his nine lives.

Coming into a franchise as storied as the Shrek series, director Joel Crawford was thrilled at the opportunity to show a new side of the iconic Puss in Boots.

After a brush with a mysterious wolf who is determined to take his last life, Puss decides to live the rest of his life in hiding. However, he soon learns about a wishing star that could help them get his lives back. Crawford wanted to take the story of Puss in Boots into a darker direction than the other films in the Shrek franchise, using inspiration from Grimm’s Fairy Tales.

It feels like a fairy tale premise, but what excited me was that it’s so ridiculous, but then it’s so poignant that Puss has one life and he’s coming to terms with that mortality.
DEADLINE: What was the inspiration for the Wolf that initiates that existential crisis?
CRAWFORD: In conversations between Januel Mercado, the co-director, and myself, we talked about these samurai
