Donkey may not be getting his own spin-off, but Puss is.
The popular character Puss in Boots may be getting his own spin-off film from the “Shrek” franchise.
Introduced to audiences in “Shrek 2” and returning for “Shrek the Third,” Puss is voiced by Antonio Bandaras.
Bandaras told SciFi Wire that the spin-off is in the works, though specifics on it are still vague.
“Donkey doesn’t have a movie, but Puss in Boots does, and they are pushing for a movie someday soon,” Banderas said during interviews to promote the third installment in the hit franchise.
The movie could be a direct-to-DVD release and hit stores in 2010, about the same time “Shrek 4” opens in theaters.
