DreamWorks Animation and Netflix have released the first trailer for “Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight,” an upcoming series adapted from the popular series of films starring Jack Black as the voice of the eponymous martial arts master bear.
In the trailer, we see the first footage of Black’s Po, in a reprisal of his role from the Kung Fu films, the first time he’s voiced the character in a television series. Black first voiced Po for the original Kung Fu Panda film in 2008, then reprised the role for Kung Fu Panda 2 in 2011 and Kung Fu Panda 3 in 2016.

In the new trailer, we see that following a serious incident in his village, for which he is blamed, Po loses his coveted title of Dragon Master. He is distraught at the news but all is not lost as the Wandering Blade arrives searching for him, and seeking his help on a quest. She tells him that she is in search of four legendary weapons which, if used together, can destroy the world.
Unfortunately for them, one of the weapons is already in the hands of a pair of scheming weasels, Klaus and Veruca, who are looking to collect all four and create an empire of their own. The no-nonsense Wandering Blade and the excitable Po set out on a quest to find the rest of the weapons before the weasels do, with Po hoping that by saving China he can also reclaim his title as Dragon Master.
Jack Black, Peter Hastings and Shaunt Nigoghossian serve as executive producers on “Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight,” with Chris Amick and Ben Mekler co-executive producing.
