Al Pacino Explains Why He Has a Shrek Phone Case

It’s not just because he’s a fan of the green ogre.

Recently, Al Pacino was spotted with a phone case that’s covered in images of Shrek. Upon seeing this, people started going back through the archives of paparazzi snaps to discover that it’s a case he’d been using for at least two years.

Naturally, the main question here is “why.” Sure, Shrek is a fine franchise, but what the hell is the star of Heat doing walking around with an animated character on his iPhone?

It’s a question even he seems perplexed by, but in these interviews, he gives us the answer.

Gotta be honest, it’s kinda cute.
