Nov 5 2009 Zach Galifianakis Donating Voice to Shrek Thing

Joining a vocal cast that already includes most key members of the The Mask of Zorro Desperado (whups!), the always enjoyable Zach Galifanakis is negotiating to provide the voice of Humpty Dumpty in the Shrek spin-off Puss in Boots. The animated picture, as its title implies, follows Antonio Banderas's swashbuckling cat character and the events that led to his being in Shrek 2. Salma Hayak is also signed on, and presumably plays some kind of girl cat that also has a thick accent.

When will society finally evolve to the point of no longer typecasting fat people to voice fat animated characters? Not yet. Not yet.
