About

Puss in Boots: The Last Wish is a 2022 animated adventure that follows the swashbuckling cat on a quest to reclaim his lost lives.

Puss in Boots, the charismatic feline hero of the DreamWorks Shrek universe, has burned through eight of his nine lives in pursuit of daring exploits. With only one life remaining, he sets out on a perilous journey across a mythic realm to find the fabled Last Wish of the Wishing Star. Along the way he is joined by the clever Chihuahua‑turned‑therapist Perrito, the reformed ex‑fiancée Kitty Softpaws, and the cunning cat‑bandit Goldilocks. Together they confront the sinister wolf‑personified Death, a ravenous pastry chef known as Jack Horner, and a host of other fairy‑tale characters who also seek the Star’s power. The film blends fast‑paced action with a darker humor, and it explores themes of mortality, friendship, and the true value of a single life. As Puss learns to cherish his remaining moments, the story sets the stage for further adventures beyond the original Shrek backdrop.
