TV Writer To Pen SHREK Spinoff
DreamWorks has enlisted Tom Wheeler for the Antonio Banderas flick Puss in Boots.
Puss in Boots is a stand-alone feature foray for the feline assassin/swordsman voiced by Banderas in the two most recent Shrek films.
The Puss in Boots character, originally hired to knock off the grumpy green ogre, debuted in Shrek 2, which is the 10th-highest-grossing movie of all time. He went on to become part of Shrek's entourage.
Chris Miller, who added voices and dialogue to previous Shrek installments and co-directed and co-wrote the third movie, wrote an earlier draft of the Puss screenplay.
