Kung Fu Panda 3 is a 2016 animated martial arts comedy film produced by DreamWorks Animation, China Film Group Corporation, Oriental DreamWorks and Zhong Ming You Ying Film, and distributed by 20th Century Fox. It is the third installment in the Kung Fu Panda franchise and the sequel to Kung Fu Panda 2 (2011). The film was directed by Jennifer Yuh Nelson and Alessandro Carloni and written by the writing team of Jonathan Aibel and Glenn Berger.

Jack Black, Dustin Hoffman, Angelina Jolie, Jackie Chan, Lucy Liu, Seth Rogen, David Cross, and James Hong reprise their roles from the previous films, and Randall Duk Kim reprises his role of Oogway from the first film. They are joined by Bryan Cranston (replacing Fred Tatasciore, who went on to voice Master Bear), J. K. Simmons and Kate Hudson as new characters. In the film, Po is reunited with his birth father, and discovers the existence of a secret Panda Village, but must soon learn to master chi and prepare the pandas to fight against General Kai, a spirit warrior intent on destroying Master Oogway's legacy. The film is dedicated to the memory of Nancy Bernstein, who served as Head of Production at DreamWorks Animation, and died on September 18, 2015.

Kung Fu Panda 3 premiered at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles on January 16, 2016.[5] It received a limited release in China on January 23, for a sneak preview, and was released in the United States on January 29, in 3D. It grossed $521 million worldwide against its $145 million budget, becoming the second-highest-grossing film released in the month of January (behind American Sniper). The film received generally positive reviews with the Rotten Tomatoes critical consensus praises the visuals and narrative.[6] A sequel animated series, Kung Fu Panda: The Paws of Destiny, aired on Amazon Prime Video from November 16, 2018, to July 4, 2019. Another animated series, Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight, began airing on Netflix in July 2022, and features Black reprising his role as Po. A fourth film, Kung Fu Panda 4, was theatrically released on March 8, 2024.

Plot

In the Spirit Realm, Master Oogway fights General Kai, a spirit bull who has stolen the chi from all the other deceased kung fu masters. He steals Oogway's chi, but not before Oogway warns Kai that someone is destined to stop him. Kai uses the stolen chi to return to the Mortal Realm and is enraged to find he has been forgotten from history.

Meanwhile, Master Shifu announces his retirement from teaching and names Po as his successor. Po's first attempts to teach inadvertently injure the Furious Five, and Shifu, who predicted the calamity, advises Po to teach more like himself and less like Shifu. Disheartened, Po returns home, where he meets Li Shan, a panda who received a message from the universe that his son was alive. Both quickly realize Li is Po's biological father and they immediately bond, much to the dismay and jealousy of Po's adoptive father, Mr. Ping.

After introducing Li to Shifu and the Five, Po and the Five defend the Valley of Peace from Kai's jade zombies, the remains of the kung fu masters who had their chi stolen. The group learns that Kai and Oogway were once brothers-in-arms, and that Kai saved Oogway's life by taking him to a secret panda village after he was injured in battle. The pandas taught Oogway to give chi, but Kai learned to take chi from others for his own personal gain, forcing Oogway to banish him to the Spirit Realm. Li offers to take Po to the village to learn chi so he can defeat Kai, while Shifu and the Five prepare to protect the Valley. Mr. Ping travels with Po, hoping to drive a wedge between him and Li. At the village, Li tells Po he will teach him chi once he has learned to live like a panda.

Intent on erasing Oogway's legacy, Kai steals the chi of every living kung fu master, including Shifu, Crane, Mantis, Monkey, and Viper, and turns them into jade zombies, while Tigress escapes, tracks down Po and tells him what happened. When Po demands that Li teach him how to use chi immediately, Li confesses that he lied about knowing it out of fear of losing him again. Hurt by Li's misdirection, Po disowns him and trains alone to defeat Kai. Mr. Ping sympathizes with Li and assures him that Po will forgive him. While training, Po tells Tigress that he hopes to get close enough to Kai to put him in a Wuxi Finger Hold and send him back to the Spirit Realm. Li, Mr. Ping and the pandas ask Po to teach them kung fu so they can defeat Kai together. Realizing what earlier made him fail when attempting to teach, Po trains them not to imitate his kung fu, but instead to use their everyday activities as kung fu skills. Between training sessions, Po and Li reconcile.

Kai arrives with his jade zombies and attacks the village. Po's students fight them, distracting Kai long enough for Po to use the Wuxi Finger Hold on him. However, Kai reveals that the technique works only on mortals, not on spirit warriors like himself, then overpowers Po. To save the others, Po uses a trick from Shifu, grabs Kai and executes the Wuxi Finger Hold on himself, banishing them both to the Spirit Realm. Enraged, Kai furiously attacks Po and begins to steal his chi and turn him into a jade zombie. In the Mortal Realm, Li leads the others to give their chi to Po in the Spirit Realm, rejuvenating him and empowering his chi. As they fight, Po overloads Kai with excessive chi, returning the kung fu masters to normal and restoring their chi.

Po encounters Oogway, who reveals that he sent the message to Li, and explains that he chose Po as the Dragon Warrior because, as a panda, he had the potential to become a master of both kung fu and chi. Oogway proudly names Po his successor and gives him his mystic staff, which Po uses to return to the Mortal Realm. After happily reuniting with the others and his fathers, Po takes on his new role at the restored Jade Palace, where he trains the pandas and the residents of the Valley in kung fu and chi.

Production

Development

In 2010, DreamWorks Animation (DWA) CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg announced that the Kung Fu Panda franchise was planned to have six movies, or "chapters", altogether.[13] In July 2012, Kung Fu Panda 3 was officially confirmed by Bill Damaschke, DWA's chief creative officer.[14]

The film is a co-production between DreamWorks Animation and Oriental DreamWorks, a Shanghai-based animation studio founded in 2012 as a partnership between DreamWorks Animation and Chinese companies. One third of the film was made in China, and the rest in the United States at DWA.[15][16] This was the first time that any major American animated feature film had been co-produced with a Chinese firm.[17] The filmmakers worked closely with SAPPRFT to ensure the film's release in China.[18] As a film with a co-production status in China, it allowed the production companies to circumvent the country's strict import quota, and take a greater share of box-office revenue than imported films.[16][19] To ensure the film's success in China, in addition to the English version, the Chinese version of the film was also fully animated, making them the only versions that have the characters' lips synchronized with their voices.[20]

Casting

Kung Fu Panda 3 saw the crew from the second film reunite, including director Jennifer Yuh Nelson, producer Melissa Cobb, screenplay writers Jonathan Aibel and Glenn Berger, and Guillermo del Toro as executive producer.[21] Initially, Nelson was to direct the film alone, but by February 2015, Alessandro Carloni had joined her as a co-director. According to the report, Carloni, who had worked as an animation supervisor on the first film and a story artist on the second, joined Nelson after she requested strengthening "the director's bench" to ensure that the film be completed in a timely manner.[22]

On April 9, 2013, DreamWorks Animation announced that Rebel Wilson, Bryan Cranston and Mads Mikkelsen had joined the cast.[8] By April 2015, J. K. Simmons had replaced Mikkelsen, whose character had been rewritten.[23] Five months later, Wilson was replaced by Kate Hudson due to an extended production schedule.[12] The studio had to reanimate previously completed scenes to reflect Hudson's interpretation of the character.[12]

The film's antagonist, General Kai, is the first supernatural villain of the Kung Fu Panda film series.[24] Described by del Toro as "the most formidable villain yet",[25] the creators wanted him to stand apart from his predecessors.[24] Nelson reasoned, "You can't go brawler because Tai Lung was brawler. You can't go smarter because Shen was smarter. Where can you go? You have to go supernatural, bigger, and even more intimidating."[24]

Music

Main article: Kung Fu Panda 3 (soundtrack)

On July 25, 2014, it was announced that Hans Zimmer, who co-scored the first two Kung Fu Panda movies with John Powell, would return to score the film.[1] The score is performed by the London Session Orchestra, includes choir pieces performed by The Metro Voices and Shanghai Roxi Musical Studio Choirs, and features performances from renowned Asian musicians, such as Chinese pianist Lang Lang, Chinese cellist Jian Wang, erhu musician Guo Gan, Chinese pipa player Wu Man, Taiwanese pop singer Jay Chou, and Canadian-Taiwanese singer Patrick Brasca, who, with Chou, performs the main theme, "Try", in the end credits.

The soundtrack album was released January 29, 2016, on Sony Classical.[26] Powell did not return for the third installment, but, despite this, most of the themes on which he collaborated with Zimmer were worked into the score. Many themes from the score contain portions of the garage rock song, "I'm So Sorry", by the American pop-rock band, Imagine Dragons. For the soundtrack, the song was portioned in the tracks, "The Arrival of Kai", "The Hall of Heroes", "The Legend of Kai", "Jaded", "Po Belongs", "Kai Is Closer", "The Battle of Legends" and "The Spirit Realm". The soundtrack also includes additional music composed by Chinese-American composer Nathan Wang, and Scottish composers Lorne Balfe, and Paul Mounsey. The orchestrator for the ethnic instruments overdub sessions was Derrick Werlé.

Theatrical

In September 2012, it was announced that Kung Fu Panda 3 would be released on March 18, 2016.[21] On April 9, 2013, the film's release date was moved back to December 23, 2015.[8] In December 2014, the film was pushed forward to its original release date of March 18, 2016, to avoid competition with Star Wars: The Force Awakens.[27] In April 2015, the release date was again shifted, this time to January 29, 2016.[28] AMC Theatres partnered with Fox and DreamWorks Animation to play the movie in Mandarin at seven theaters, and in Spanish at 14 locations in the U.S and Canada, creating a mix of subtitled and dubbed formats of Kung Fu Panda 3. This marked the first time that AMC presented a major theatrical release in Mandarin.[29] The film had a day-and-date release in South Korea, Russia, Ukraine, Jamaica, Puerto Rico and China January 28, and in the U.S. and Canada January 29. Other markets followed in March and April.[30][31][needs update] According to Deadline Hollywood, the strategy behind such a staggered release was to take advantage of certain opportunistic dates that presented themselves, such as the Chinese New Year in February for China.[30]

Home media

The film was released on Blu-ray and DVD on June 28, 2016. On June 6, 2024, it was announced that Kung Fu Panda 3 was released on Peacock on June 26, 2024.

Reception

Box office

Kung Fu Panda 3 grossed $143.5 million in the United States and Canada, and $377.6 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $521.2 million; it is the lowest-grossing film in the series.[4] According to Deadline Hollywood, the film made a net profit of $80.65 million, making it one of the top-20 most profitable releases of 2016.[32]

In the United States and Canada, early speculation anticipated that the film would open to about $40–45 million from 3,955 theaters, with Box Office Mojo reporting as high as a $53 million opening, on par with Kung Fu Panda 2's $47.7 million opening in 2011, but a significant decrease from the first film's $60.2 million opening in 2008.[29][33][34][31][35] However, DreamWorks Animation and Fox gave a more conservative estimate of a "mid-$40 million" opening.[33] Paul Dergarabedian, a senior analyst at Rentrak, said that the film's opening "should land somewhere between the first two installments", noting that the film will likely appeal to families "with few options for appropriate entertainment at the multiplex of late".[34] On January 27, two days before the film's release, Fandango reported that Kung Fu Panda 3 was the top advance-ticket seller for the weekend, outperforming previous DreamWorks Animation films, Home and Kung Fu Panda 2, at the same point in their sale cycles.[29] Box-office pundits also noted that the film did not face any serious competition with other new releases, such as The Finest Hours and Fifty Shades of Black, nor with holdovers The Revenant and Star Wars: The Force Awakens; all were expected to gross close to $10 million.[29]

In North America, Kung Fu Panda 3 topped the box office in its debut weekend, with $41.3 million, making it the best opening weekend for an animated film in January, and the third-highest weekend debut ever for the month.[36] The film continued to top the North American box office during its second weekend, grossing $21.2 million.[37]

In China, expectations were high for the film, with Nancy Tartaglione of Deadline Hollywood anticipating a bigger opening weekend than in the U.S., and a higher total gross. Conservative estimates for Kung Fu Panda 3's opening in China ranged from $35 million to $50 million.[30] Before the film's official Chinese release, it was already projected to surpass Monkey King: Hero Is Back as the country's highest-grossing animated film — it had earned $153 million at the box office in 2015[38] — because Kung Fu Panda 3 had the advantages of opening a week before the Chinese New Year and Valentine's Day, as well as debuting during the school holidays in the Lunar New Year "blackout" period that prohibits the release of foreign films; it therefore did not face competition from major Hollywood productions.[30][38]

The film had a limited theatrical release in China January 22, 2016, a week before its release in the United States. A three-hour special sneak preview was screened, earning $6.4 million from two different versions of the film,[39] topping the daily box-office charts.[40] Buoyed by word of mouth,[38] the film had a single-day opening of $16.3 million, the biggest of 2016 to that point, earning a total of $23.1 million, including previews from its Saturday showings, giving Kung Fu Panda 3 one of China's highest-grossing openings.[41]

Critical response

On Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds a approval rating of 87%, based on 179 reviews, with an average rating of 6.90/10. The site's critical consensus reads, "Kung Fu Panda 3 boasts the requisite visual splendor, but like its rotund protagonist, this sequel's narrative is also surprisingly nimble, adding up to animated fun for the whole family."[6] On Metacritic, the film has a score of 66 out of 100, based on 34 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews".[42] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A" on a scale of A+ to F.[43]

IGN gave the film a score of 8.5 out of 10, commenting that "Kung Fu Panda 3 offers a fun-filled, action-packed conclusion to DreamWorks' endearing animated series".[44] Screen Rant awarded it 2.5 out of 5, saying, "At times, it's a beautiful movie, filled with likable characters, as well as digestible gags, that should keep kids smiling and giggling–but, with a plethora of more ambitious animated options out there, passable might not justify the money (or time) required for a viewing."[45] Glenn Kenny of RogerEbert.com awarded Kung Fu Panda 3 three stars out of four, and wrote that the film, "in spite of its abundant action–and for all the interspecies mashups, this is as much an action-adventure animated movie as it is a funny-animal animated movie–is a pretty relaxing experience for the adult viewer".[46]

Justin Chang of Variety gave a positive review, saying that "a winning lightness of touch prevails in this delightful continuation of the durable DreamWorks franchise".[47]

Christian Holub of Entertainment Weekly gave Kung Fu Panda 3 a rating of B, commenting that the film was "just complicated enough to reward steady viewers and just simple enough for parent escorts to enjoy without much prior knowledge".[48]

Michael Rechtshaffen of The Hollywood Reporter wrote, "While the storyline, in which Jack Black's dumpling-downing Dragon Warrior is reunited with his biological father, doesn't quite fulfill its prophecies, dramatically speaking, visually speaking it's all quite impressive–one of those very rare animated features that completely justifies its 3D glasses."[49]

Marter Parkinson of The Escapist gave the film three stars out of five, saying that "Kung Fu Panda 3 can best be described as 'another one'", and called it "just a slight variation of the story told in the first film", as well as "a step down from the second film", but concluded that "it's a perfectly fine film, and if all you want is 'more of the same,' it won't disappoint".[50]

Forbes gave a mixed review, negatively comparing Kung Fu Panda 3 to its predecessors, and describing it as "a comedown from the first two superb entries", but conceding that the film was "visually gorgeous and generally entertaining".[51]

Accolades

Unlike its predecessors, this is the first Kung Fu Panda film not to be nominated for an Academy Award. At the 44th Annie Awards, Kung Fu Panda 3 received nominations for Best Animated Feature, Outstanding Achievement for Animated Effects in an Animated Production, Outstanding Achievement for Character Animation in a Feature Production, and Outstanding Achievement for Production Design in an Animated Feature Production.[52] Jack Black was nominated for Best Virtual Performance at the 2016 MTV Movie Awards, and Most Wanted Pet at the 2017 Kids' Choice Awards.[53][54] The film was also nominated at the Golden Trailer Awards for Best Animation/Family TV Spot,[55][56] and the British Academy Children's Awards for Kid's Vote — Film.[57] It earned a pair of nominations for Best Animated Film from the Saturn Awards and the Georgia Film Critics Association Awards.[58][59][60]

Future

Sequel

Main article: Kung Fu Panda 4

On December 3, 2010, then-DreamWorks Animation CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg officially confirmed that the series could see three more sequels after Kung Fu Panda 3, bringing it to a six-film series.[13] On January 13, 2016, Collider asked the filmmakers of Kung Fu Panda 3 about the possibility of a fourth film, with co-director Jennifer Yuh Nelson answering, "It's one at a time. We want to make this a perfect jewel, and then we'll see what happens after that," and co-director Alessandro Carloni replying, "With the sequels, we don't want to try to have them feel open-ended. We want it to feel like a completed journey, and we feel this movie does. And then, if a fantastic story presents itself, great."[63] On August 2, 2018, when asked about any updates on Kung Fu Panda 4, Nelson replied that she did not know and had always seen the series as a trilogy, but that she was open to the idea of a fourth installment, as long as the focus remained on Po.[64]

On August 12, 2022, DreamWorks Animation officially confirmed that Kung Fu Panda 4 was in production and set to be released on March 8, 2024.[65]

In April 2023, during CinemaCon, it was announced that director Mike Mitchell will direct the film, with Stephanie Ma Stine as a co-director and Rebecca Huntley as a producer. Black revealed the story, which follows Po trying to find a new Dragon Warrior in a fox named Zhen while facing a new villain, the Chameleon, who can bring back to life deceased villains like Tai Lung, Lord Shen, and General Kai.[66]

On December 12, 2023, it was announced that Awkwafina, Viola Davis and Ke Huy Quan would join the cast, playing Zhen, Chameleon and Han, respectively.[67][68][69] It was also announced that Dustin Hoffman, Ian McShane, Bryan Cranston and James Hong would reprise their roles from the previous films.[70]
