Sour Puss

Tom Wheeler is writing the Shrek film series spin off Puss in Boots says The Hollywood Reporter.



The feline assassin/swordsman Puss in Boots character, originally hired to knock off the grumpy green ogre, debuted in Shrek 2 and became part of Shrek's entourage.

Antonio Banderas voiced the character in the second, third and upcoming Shrek Goes Fourth .

Shrek the Third co-director/co-writer Chris Miller wrote an earlier draft of the "Puss" screenplay.

The spin-off sounds quite unnecessary to me. The Shrek are already stretched cute thin.
