The trailer for Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight looks thrilling and fans are quite excited.The two-and-half-minute clip is packed with action, witty one-liners, and Po's shenanigans, all things that made Kung Fu Panda such a favorite in the first place. Although the old band of Furious Five is not seen anywhere in the trailer, the new partnership between the Dragon Master and Wandering Blade looks promising.

The caption under the trailer also gives a short synopsis:

"When a mysterious pair of weasels set their sights on a collection of four powerful weapons, Po must leave his home to embark on a globe-trotting quest for redemption and justice that finds him partnered up with a no-nonsense English knight named Wandering Blade voiced by Rita Ora. Together, these two mismatched warriors set out on an epic adventure to find the magical weapons first and save the world from destruction."

The odd pair of Po, who is always bustling with enthusiasm, humor and excitement, and Wandering Blade, who is a no-nonsense, goal-oriented knight, will definitely add new flavor to the series as the duo learn from each other and collaborate to save the world.
