TriviaCharming's voice actor, Rupert Everett, was intended to voice Gaston from Beauty and the Beast.Strangely enough, Charming and Gaston are somewhat similar. They both are handsome in appearance, have narcissistic personalities, and want to marry the lead females for their own good(though Gaston wanted Belle for her beauty, while Charming wanted to marry Fiona so he could be king of Far Far Away). Also, they both are very jealous of of their "fiances' " love for a for a different creature (Shrek and the Beast), and fail to kill their "monstrous" enemies by stabbing, which leads both of them to end up in terrible fates(Charming gets trapped in a falling prop tower, while Gaston falls off the Beast's Castle). The only difference is that Charming managed to survive the danger and reappeared in the video game Shrek's Carnival Craze, while Gaston is confirmed dead.James Arnold Taylor voiced Prince Charming in the video games, replacing Rupert Everett.
