A new animated special from DreamWorks Animation SKG, titled Shrek the Halls, will be coming to ABC next December. The half-hour show will likely join the ranks of Rudolph for future Christmases to come. Stephen McPherson, president, ABC Entertainment and Jeffrey Katzenberg, CEO of DreamWorks Animation SKG made the announcement, saying “Family classics are a cornerstone of our brand, and Shrek The Halls will provide warm memories year-after-year, and be a great addition to our library of holiday favorites such as Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town and A Charlie Brown Christmas. Shrek 2 will make its “world television premiere” on ABC November 24th at 8:00 p.m. The special, Shrek the Halls, will air sometime in December 2007. The best part—the original cast returns for this look at Christmas in the swamp. Check out Mike Myers (Shrek), Cameron Diaz (Fiona), Eddie Murphy (Donkey) and Antonio Banderas.
