- Acting for Two: Artie and Prince Charming are both voiced by James Arnold Taylor in the tie-in game, and end up talking to each other during the final battle.
- B-Team Sequel: The first two films had a few different co-directors, but had Andrew Adamson among them for both films. Here, Chris Miller directs the film, while Adamson was busy making The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe at the time of this film's production, though Adamson is still credited for its story.
- Celebrity Voice Actor: Justin Timberlake provides the voicework for Artie. Aside from Timberlake, the new characters are voiced by Eric Idle, Maya Rudolph, Amy Poehler, Amy Sedaris, Cheri Oteri, Susanne Blakeslee, and John Krasinski.
- Early Draft Tie-In: The tie-in game features a section focusing on Artie, Shrek and Donkey going on a quest to find the Holy Grail. This is based off a deleted subplot that didn't make it into the finished movie, explaining why nothing of the sort actually happened there.
- Kids' Meal Toy: McDonald's had two Happy Meal promotions. The first was a set of ten talking figures released during the film's theatrical run; Shrek, Fiona, Donkey, Puss in Boots, Gingy, Arthur, a Dronkey, Fergus, Farkle, and Felicia.

- The Brazilian Portuguese dub has Mauro Ramos as Donkey due to Bussunda's sudden passing in 2006.
