True, but misleading. The final product that hit the movie screens was nothing like what the "Shrek'd" animators put together. When the higher-ups saw it, they immediately fired the whole crew, and then, when Chris Farley (originally cast as Shrek) died, it was almost scrapped. Thankfully, with a revamped cast and crew, Shrek was remade, and the rest, as they say, is history.
