Po, the world’s most unlikely kung fu master, is back for another adventure!

Kung Fu Panda 4 opens at cinemas on Friday, 22 March 2024 – just in time for the Easter school holidays.

After three death-defying adventures defeating world-class villains with his unmatched courage and mad martial arts skills, Po the Dragon Warrior (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, The Chameleon (Viola Davis), a tiny lizard who can shape-shift into any creature, large or small. And The 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. 

So, Po’s going to need some help. He finds it (kinda?) in the form of crafty, quick-witted thief Zhen (AWKWAFINA), a Corsac fox who really gets under Po’s fur but whose skills will prove invaluable. In their quest to protect the Valley of Peace from The Chameleon’s reptilian claws, this comedic odd-couple duo will have to work together. In the process, Po will discover that heroes can be found in the most unexpected places.
