Get outta my swamp! The first trailer for the brand new Shrek 5 movie has just been released.
The clip was shared by the movie studio Universal Pictures, and shows the green ogre and his family and friends gathered around the magic mirror to look up funny videos of Shrek.
It's been a while since the first Shrek movie came out in 2001, 24 years ago! - with the fourth and most recent one, Shrek Forever After released in 2010.
However, fans will have to wait a little while longer before the new movie is released, as the trailer revealed that Shrek 5 would be out around Christmas-time 2026.

Who is in Shrek 5?

Princess Fiona, Shrek, Donkey and Pinocchio are back, as well as Shrek and Fiona's daughter
It has been confirmed that Shrek (voiced by Mike Myers), Princess Fiona (voiced by Cameron Diaz) and Donkey (voiced by Eddie Murphy) are all returning for the new movie.
Also shown in the trailer are the characters Pinocchio and Magic Mirror.
The clip also reveals Fiona and Shrek's teenage daughter, who will be voiced by famous actress Zendaya, who you might recognise from the new Spider-Man movies.
Her name has not been confirmed yet, but she could be Felicia - one of Fiona and Shrek's triplets, who we saw as babies in the fourth movie.
Which means we are yet to meet her brothers Fergus and Farkle.
There is also no confirmation yet on whether Antonio Banderas will return as Puss in Boots.
