Certainly the stars showed up for the premiere. Cameron Diaz, who voices Fiona in the films (including part four, which opens in 2010), responded with mock terror when asked if she'd ever play that part in the show.
"No. Absolutely not. What they do up there ... is, to me, impossible. It's wonderful, though. They've done such a great job. They worked really hard, and it really pays off."
