An early recording and storyboard for Shrek has been recently uncovered. Chris Farley reportedly voiced 99% of the role before his sudden death from a drug overdose. Early versions of Shrek closely resembled Farley himself, according to his brother Kevin Farley.

“Originally the Shrek character was a little bit more like Chris, like a humble, bumbling innocent guy,” said Kevin, who bears no grudge toward Myers or DreamWorks studio."

“The studio needed to do what they needed to do. It was a bad time, bad timing… a tragedy,” he said. “Mike did a great job with ‘Shrek.’ He knocked it out of the park.”

Fellow Saturday Night Live alum Mike Myers would go on to fill the big shoes left vacant.
