Kung Fu Panda 4 kicks it up a notch with the ultimate Dragon Warrior – 16 years of Po and still chopping! Ready for Jack Black’s karate-chopping charisma?

TRAILER

This spring, for the first time in almost a decade, comedy icon Jack Black returns to his role as Po, the world’s most unlikely kung fu master, with a hilarious, butt-kicking new chapter in DreamWorks Animation’s beloved action-comedy franchise: Kung Fu Panda 4.

After three death-defying adventures defeating world-class villains with his unmatched courage and mad martial arts skills, Po, the Dragon Warrior (Golden Globe nominee Jack Black), is called upon by destiny to … give it a rest already. More specifically, he’s tapped to become the Spiritual Leader of the Valley of Peace.

That poses a couple of obvious problems. First, Po knows as much about spiritual leadership as he does about the paleo diet, and second, he needs to quickly find and train a new Dragon Warrior before he can assume his new lofty position.

Even worse, there’s been a recent sighting of a wicked, powerful sorceress, Chameleon (Oscar® winner Viola Davis), a tiny lizard who can shapeshift into any creature, large or small. And Chameleon has her greedy, beady little eyes on Po’s Staff of Wisdom, which would give her the power to re-summon all the master villains whom Po has vanquished to the spirit realm.

KUNG FU PANDA 4 REVIEW

Kung Fu Panda 4 the kids in the seats were practically doing flying kicks of joy every time Black’s Po hit the scene. What’s not to love about a hilarious, fluffy panda shouting “ska-doosh”?

This time around, our favorite furry martial artist, Po, faces a new challenge. As the Dragon Warrior, he’s got to step up as the spiritual head honcho of the Valley of Peace. His mission? Scout out a new champ to carry on the Dragon Warrior legacy. But, twist in the tale, a new villain, Chameleon, is on the prowl, shape-shifting her way through the valley with eyes on Po’s Staff of Wisdom. She’s plotting to unleash every baddie Po’s ever sent packing.

As Po gears up for this next epic chapter, we’re served a fresh narrative slice where our hero learns the art of letting go and passing the warrior baton.

And just like after the first three rounds with Po, you’ll be left craving a heaping bowl of dumplings.

Po’s adventure isn’t just a kickin’ good time; it’s a heartwarming spin-kick into the truths of life and leadership, proving once and for all that sometimes, the best way to move forward is to give yourself a swift kick in the panda tail!
