I considered it this spring for a solid six hours. There's a fantastic energy now for some reason, on the internet particularly. Tumblr, people brought my attention to. I actually did consider it, but then I realized it would make Bee Movie 1 less iconic. But my kids want me to do it, a lot of people want me to do it. A lot of people that don't know what animation is want me to do it. If you have any idea what animation is, you'd never do it.[23]

Feature filmGullible's TravelsIn January 2007, DreamWorks announced they had bought a spec script titled Gullible's Travels which would have been about a man who travels through time via a porta potty to find the woman he loves.

Feature filmMaintenanceIn December 2010, DreamWorks announced they had bought the film rights to the comic book series Maintenance from Oni Press.

But they went in a strange direction and it just didn't work."[49]
Feature filmMonkeys of MumbaiIn January 2011, it was announced that DreamWorks was fast-tracking a Bollywood-styled musical adaptation of The Ramayana, but told through the point of view of its monkeys. It would have follow two common monkeys who become unlikely heroes in a last ditch effort to stop an ancient, thought-to-be-mythical demon from conquering the world. Stephen Schwartz and A. R.

In June 2011, Kevin Lima had signed on to direct the project.[51] In April 2014, it was announced that Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Lea Michele and Rohan Chand were in talks to join the cast.[52] The film was originally scheduled to be released on December 18, 2015,[53] but its release date was pushed back to March 18, 2016 and March 10, 2017.[54][55] In December 2017, Lima revealed that DreamWorks quietly cancelled the film in an interview with Den of Geeks UK stating,

It came very close. We were just going into production, we were just starting animation. I'd been working on it for two and a half years. All the songs were written. Stephen Schwartz and A.R. Rahman. We were just ready to start. I have to say that it's one of the great disappointments of my film career not seeing that one move forward. It had nothing to do with the movie, and everything to do with the politics of selling the studio. Seven of us I think lost movies at that moment in time. With the studio having written it off on their taxes, it means the only way to get it back would be to invest that kind of money again. And it’s tens of millions of dollars. I tried. I really tried. Stephen Schwartz and I took it around town, but when the price tag was revealed, everyone gasped. Ultimately, we couldn't find a buyer.[56]

Feature filmRumblewickIn March 2011, DreamsWorks announced they were producing an animated adaptation of the book My Unwilling Witch (The Rumblewick Letters) that would be titled Rumblewick. Tim Johnson and Jim Herzfeld were slated to write and direct the project.[57] In September 2016, Brenda Chapman revealed she had worked on the project.[58]

Feature filmB.O.O.: Bureau of Otherworldly OperationsIn September 2012, DreamWorks announced they were developing an animated film about ghosts that would have starred Seth Rogen, Matt Bomer, Melissa McCarthy, Bill Murray, Octavia Spencer, Rashida Jones, and Jennifer Coolidge. It was to be directed by Tony Leondis and written by Tom Wheeler from a story by Leondis. It was about two bumbling apparitions who find themselves in an extraordinary after-life adventure when they join the Bureau of Otherworldly Operations (B.O.O.) – the ghost world's elite counter-haunting unit – and ultimately must face off against the planet's greatest haunter.[53][59] It was to scheduled to be released on June 5, 2015, but it was pulled from its release to avoid competition with Disney•Pixar's Inside Out, and also due to a string of box office bombs like Rise of the Guardians, Turbo, and Mr. Peabody and Sherman.[60] In 2015, Leondis later moved from DreamWorks to Sony Pictures Animation to develop his next film, The Emoji Movie.[61]
MadagascarMadagascar 4DreamWorks Animation Jeffrey Katzenberg has stated that there is likely to be a fourth installment in the Madagascar franchise.[62] However, in June 2012, DreamWorks Animation's head of worldwide marketing, Anne Globe, said, "It's too early to tell. There hasn't been a lot of discussion about that."[63] Eric Darnell, who co-directed all three films, spoke of the possibility of the fourth film, noting, "Two things have to happen. One is that the world has to want Madagascar 4, because if they don't want it, it doesn't matter what we do. And the other thing is even if the world wants Madagascar 4, we have to make sure that we have an idea that is incredible, that is great, that is unexpected. If the audience wants it and we have a great idea, we will see – maybe."[64] On June 12, 2014, the film was scheduled to be released on May 18, 2018.[65] In January 2015, Madagascar 4 was removed from the release schedule following corporate restructuring and DreamWorks Animation's new policy to release two films a year.[66][67] In April 2017, Tom McGrath said about the film: "There are things in the works, nothing is announced yet, but I think they'll show their faces once more..."[68]
Rise of the GuardiansRise of the Guardians sequelFollowing the release of Rise of the Guardians, the creators expressed hope that the strong A- Cinemascore average for the film and an enthusiastic word-of-mouth would gather support for the "chance to make a sequel or two."[69] This includes co-producer and author of the book it was based on, The Guardians of Childhood by William Joyce, said he was in talks with the studio. He recalled, "There is something that we are proposing that we hope they will want to do."[70]

Feature filmLarrikinsIn June 2013, it was announced that Tim Minchin would compose the songs and score for Larrikins, which was based on an original concept by Harry Cripps.[71] The project was about a desert-dwelling bilby named Perry who leaves his home under a rock to go on a road trip with a music band in Australia. In June 2016, it was announced that Minchin and Chris Miller were to direct the film while Margot Robbie, Hugh Jackman, Naomi Watts, Rose Byrne, Ben Mendelsohn, Jacki Weaver, Josh Lawson, Damon Herriman, and Ewen Leslie were to voice characters for the film. The film was slated to be released on February 16, 2018.[72] In March 2017, Minchin announced on his personal blog that the project had been cancelled. Minchin wrote on his blog,

I've recently been working in 3 different continents, missing my kids a lot, sleeping too little and not playing piano enough. And then a couple of days ago, the animated film to which I've dedicated the last 4 years of my life was shut down by the new studio execs. The only way I know how to deal with my impotent fury and sadness is to subject members of the public to the spectacle of me getting drunk and playing ballads.[73][74]

Shortly after the film's cancellation, Peter de Sève revealed some concept art for the film via Twitter.[75][76] Fortunately, however, certain characters from the film later appeared in the 2018 animated short film Bilby.[77]

Shrek Shrek 5 In February 2014, in an interview with Fox Business Network, Katzenberg hinted that a fifth film may still be made. "We like to let them have a little bit of time to rest," he said of the characters. "But I think you can be confident that we'll have another chapter in the Shrek series. We're not finished, and more importantly, neither is he." On June 15, 2016, after NBCUniversal purchased DreamWorks Animation for $3.8 billion, NBCUniversal chief Steve Burke discussed plans to revive the franchise, as well as other DreamWorks films. In July 2016, The Hollywood Reporter cited sources saying that the fifth film was planned for a 2019 release. In September 2016, Eddie Murphy confirmed that the film was expected to be released in 2019 or 2020, and that the script had been completed. The story for the film was written by Michael McCullers, based on his own idea, with an intention to reinvent the series.
