Despite the Shrek franchise from which Puss in Boots originated being memed into darn-near oblivion over the years, everyone’s favorite Zorro parody cat (portrayed by Antonio Banderas) has once again returned to the silver screen for another outing in Puss in Boots: The Last Wish.
Puss’s return to the theater at the end of last year was an absolute triumph, and with only a Netflix TV series managing to keep his most devout fans busy in the interim, we’d have expected nothing less. In this latest adventure, the titular cat discovers that his penchant for adventure has left him bereft of eight out of his nine lives as a cat, so he heads out into the world to reclaim them.
We thought the movie was a fantastic expansion to the broader Shrek universe, and fans around the world seem to be in absolute agreement. So whether you’re a long-time fan of the Dreamworks franchise or are looking for a great film to keep your next generation of Shrek fans busy over the summer, it’s not a film worth sleeping on. Here’s where you can find it.
Where to watch Puss in Boots: The Last Wish
While you may have missed Puss’s latest epic journey on the big screen, fear not – you can catch The Last Wish from the comfort of your couch in either a matter of hours, or right now – depending on when you’re reading this. The film is set to land on Netflix at 12:00 a.m. Pacific, on July 13. Whether you’re itching to rewatch it, or you’re tuning into the latest “Shrek-verse” flick, it’s sure to be a great time.
We’d also hazard a guess that Puss in Boots: The Last Wish will end up on will be Peacock at some point down the line, given that Dreamworks is a subsidiary of Universal Pictures. Considering the rave reviews the film has been getting on Rotten Tomatoes, just about any streaming service would be clawing to have Puss in Boots: The Last Wish in its catalogue.
