The “Kung Fu Panda” series is one of the most popular animated films ever. Not only the action-packed but also very emotional adventures surrounding Dragon Warrior Po convinced the critics; the three volumes released so far have grossed more than $1.8 billion worldwide. Seven years after ‘Kung Fu Panda 3’, the franchise is finally expanded with ‘Kung Fu Panda 4’.
We will have to wait a little longer until the fourth part can be seen on the big screen in this country: the animation fun starts on March 14, 2024. To shorten the waiting time and increase the anticipation, you can now watch the first trailer of “Kung Fu Panda 4”, in which Po and his friends have to deal with a powerful witch.
That’s what “Kung Fu Panda 4” is about
After Po (voice in the original: Jack Black / German version: Hape Kerkeling) managed to put cunning villains in their place three times, he was appointed spiritual leader of the Valley of Peace. It just sucks that Po doesn’t really know what to do with this title. Plus, the fluffy panda is busy finding a new dragon warrior before he can even properly take his position.
Of course, it doesn’t fit at all that the cunning witch Chameleon (Viola Davis) appears now of all times. The lizard is a shapeshifter that can transform into any creature and is after the Staff of Wisdom, which is in Po’s possession. The mystical artifact would give Chameleon the ability to resurrect all the villains Po had ever defeated.
To stop the witch as quickly as possible and put a stop to her plan, Po teams up with the thief Zhen (Awkwafina), a steppe fox. Together, the unlikely duo searches for other companions and discovers once again that the greatest heroes can be discovered in the most unusual places.
