That&amp;#039;s Shrek, of course, who, in his third big-screen adventure, found himself thrust into the position of leading the kingdom, a position he was none too happy with, by the way. That sent Shrek and his pals Donkey and Puss in Boots off on a hunt for Artie \u2014 i.e., the future King Arthur, whose voice probably sounded pretty familiar ... because it was the voice of the ever-so-yummy Justin Timberlake.
