Shrek Dub - Russian
: Beyond the official theater release, there are well-known "voice-over" (gavrilov-style) translations, including one by the famous Dmitry "Goblin" Puchkov
But the internet fought back.
The magic started with the casting of Alexey Kolgan as the titular ogre. Kolgan didn’t just mimic Mike Myers’ Scottish accent; he created a unique vocal personality that captured Shrek’s blend of gruffness and vulnerability. His performance was so impactful that DreamWorks reportedly recognized it as the best international dubbing of the character worldwide. Kolgan’s Shrek sounds like a weary, cynical, but ultimately kind-hearted man you might meet in a provincial Russian town, making the character instantly relatable. russian shrek dub
