'Kung Fu Panda 3' News: Po Becomes The Teacher
In what could be the most emotional and yet most comedic and exciting installment in the "Kung Fu Panda" franchise, Po will finally meet his biological father and he will now leave the life of a student behind.
The third official trailer released for the movie shows Po (Jack Black) being told by his master that he has to face greater challenges in the future and discover who he is to become a better hero than he already is.
In the third movie, Po finally meets his dad, voiced by Bryan Cranston, after all those years of being apart. While he had been used to the world of various creatures and him being the only Panda in his world, his father will introduce him to a secret paradise that is home to many other Pandas like himself.
At first, he will find it difficult to adjust with the other pandas, but as the days pass, it seems the burden gets lighter. However, as he enjoys his new refuge and new family, a threat returns and he is once again called to save the world.
With a greater power threatening not only him, his old friends and family, but also his new brood, he is faced with the challenge of turning back from being a student and transforming into a teacher.
He will have to teach his Panda family to fight using the art of Kung Fu so they can protect the place they call home. While life as a student was much easier for Po to bear, it seems he won't be given an easy journey as the teacher.
Kai (J.K. Simmons) is about to turn the world upside down as he was able to destroy the temple that Po grew up in. Po and his friends, along with this amateur students, will have to stop Kai's plans before the world gets wiped out.
"Kung Fu Panda 3" will hit theaters on Jan. 29, 2016.
