Exploring Lord Farquaad's Iconic Role in Shrek

Meet Your Favorite Godmother from Shrek

CLIPS on Instagram: "🎬 Fun Fact: Shrek (2001) Mike Myers originally recorded all of Shrek’s dialogue with his natural speaking voice. After finishing, he asked to redo the entire performance using a Scottish accent, believing it fit the character better. The decision cost the studio millions in re-recording and re-animating mouth movements, but the result gave Shrek his now-iconic identity. Myers later said the accent helped make Shrek feel both tough and lovable at the same time."

Heals on Instagram: "❤️‍🩹 Fun fact: Shrek (2001): Shrek’s swamp is more than just his home, it is legally recognized as his property. In the first film, Lord Farquaad gives Shrek a deed to the swamp in exchange for rescuing Princess Fiona. That tiny detail means Shrek isn’t just living there as an outcast, he actually owns the land outright, which is why he guards it so fiercely."
