As PussinBootsTheLastWish hits digital platforms, we chat with director Joel Crawford and co-director Januel Mercado about Antonio Banderas' musical number, the return of Shrek, and more:
Warning: SPOILERS for Puss in Boots: The Last Wish!Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, which was arguably one of the biggest movie surprises of 2022, is now available to own on digital platforms. Released eleven years after a first film of mixed reception, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish wowed critics and audiences alike, earned an Academy Award nomination, and revitalized the seemingly-dormant Shrek film franchise all in one fell swoop.
Januel Mercado: We were always talking about [the fact that] even though these themes are heavy, it plays into the levity of our positive message, and these moments of the film where you do feel the warmth, the fun, and the comedy. Joel and I are always tried to work on telling a story that provides an emotional roller coaster [and] that really pulls the audience in, [so] you can experience the lows and the highs of the character and ultimately come out with a very satisfying uplifting journey.
Something I was not expecting was for this movie to open with a musical number, but it was incredible. Did it take Antonio Banderas any convincing to launch into song in this movie? It was so nice to see a Salma Hayek Pinault comeback, and you brought in these incredible new cast members: John Mulaney, Florence Pugh, Olivia Coleman, and Harvey Guillén. Did you have them in mind from the first few times you read the script?
