Dreamworks has been at the top of their animation game for sometime now. Previously, a genre completely owned by Disney has a new contender in the market and the audience seems to prefer the latter over the former. Part of Dreamworks’ success is one of the most lovable characters that they’ve made – Kung Fu Panda or Po. The furry fighter debuted in 2008 and was an absolute hit with the audiences as he was both determined and naive, not to forget loveable. Much of the credit for the character’s popularity should go to the beautiful animation and Jack Black’s voice. As the film was a blockbuster, the studio made a sequel in 2011 and then threequel in 2016. This shows you the love of the character with the masses. Many people thought that the franchise came to an end in 2016 as a trilogy but Dreamworks soon announced that there is indeed more story to explore and a fourth part was in the works and today we have Kung Fu Panda 4 first look.
