2001's animated classic Shrek is back in the news, as Universal has announced the movie will release on 4K for the first time when it arrives for video-on-demand on May 11. It will also release that day on 4K Blu-ray and DVD. This is all happening to celebrate Shrek's 20th anniversary.

　　Included with the new version are more than four hours of bonus material, including 10 shorts and a separate disc that comes with five episodes of The Adventures of Puss in Boots TV series. The bonus features also include deleted scenes and commentary from directors Andrew Adamson and Vicky Jenson. You can see the full rundown of extras below.

　　Shrek won the first-ever Academy Award for Best Animated Feature, beating out Monsters Inc. and Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius that year. The film features the voices of Mike Meyers, Eddie Murphy, Cameron Diaz, and John Lithgow as the main characters. Chris Farley was lined up to voice Shrek, and even recorded voiceover, before he died from a drug overdose in 1997.

　　Three sequels would follow in the main Shrek series, while the franchise overall would go on to explode with multiple TV series, video games, theme park rides, and countless other merchandising opportunities.

　　A fifth Shrek movie was originally expected to release in 2019 but that never happened. Universal has not announced any specific plans for further films,
