DreamWorks is a subsidiary of Universal Pictures, which is a division of NBCUniversal which Comcast owns.

It’s not currently on Disney Plus – however, in certain regions, you could watch Shrek on Netflix and on Hulu. However, Hulu has recently stated they will now be removing Shrek as of the end of April 2022, and Netflix has recently removed it.

Unfortunately, not anymore. It recently had a brief stint on Netflix in the UK and Canada, but wasn’t available anywhere else on Netflix.
