Po returns for another adventure in Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight, a 2022 animated series that pairs him with an unlikely partner for a quest across new territory. Rather than a single feature-length story, the show unfolds in short episodes that build toward a shared goal.
What is Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight about?
The series follows Po as he teams up with Wandering Blade, a blunt, no-nonsense English knight, in a race against a mysterious pair of weasels. Both sides are after the same prize: a collection of four powerful weapons scattered across the world, and whoever gathers them first stands to reshape the balance of power. The mismatch between Po's instincts and Wandering Blade's more rigid approach becomes a running source of friction and cooperation across the episodes, as the pair cross unfamiliar terrain and meet new characters along the way. Because the show is structured as a series of shorter chapters rather than one continuous film, each episode tends to close its own small arc while pushing the larger quest forward.
About the cast
Jack Black returns to voice Po, the role he has carried across the Kung Fu Panda franchise's films. He's joined by Rita Ora, Chris Geere and Della Saba, who round out the cast of new characters introduced for this chapter of the story.
Context & significance
Owen Elliott directs the series, which extends the Kung Fu Panda world beyond its feature films into an episodic format aimed at a slightly younger, faster-paced viewing rhythm. The shift to television lets the show spend more time on side characters and new settings than a single film's runtime would typically allow, while keeping the franchise's mix of comedy and action intact.
