Cameron Diaz once again revisits the kingdom of Far, Far Away  in Dreamworks Animation’s Shrek the Third, and this time the ladies get to kick some ass. When Prince Charming invades the castle, he captures Fiona and the other princesses and it’s up to the Queen and Fiona to help the girls go from helpless to heroines.

Its her third time and she seems to be more than attached to her character Princess Fiona. She says,

” You know, it’s very true, the first “Shrek” I had no idea what I was doing, and I didn’t know Fiona at all, I had no idea who she was, I didn’t know what context she fit into the story. And now I do, I look out for her in a totally different way, I respect her, I want to protect her, not that I have to because they all have her best interest as well obviously, they want to be true to Fiona as well. The once instance, the only thing I can think of is after Fiona and Shrek got married there was a slight nag that started to happen that I was not so keen on. I was like, “She cannot be a nag.” And a nag I mean like she was a little bit selfish about how she expected Shrek to show up for her, and I just didn’t feel it was fair to him.”

“…She knows Shrek, she knows his weaknesses, she knows it’s hard for him to be out of the swamp and be in the kingdom, and she can’t expect him to show up for her every single time. And even in that scene where they have to get dressed up, that was sort of that thing of like, “Come on Shrek, do this,” we turn it into like, “Please do this, I know it’s hard for you, but please can you do it.” Not, “I can’t believe you’re not going to do this for me.” So it’s that kind of mentality,” she adds.
