The upcoming series is based on the popular Kung Fu Panda feature film trilogy which starred Jack as the titular giant panda and martial arts master.
This is the actor’s first time portraying the character Po since 2016’s Kung Fu Panda 3.
The official plot synopsis reads: “When a mysterious pair of weasels turn to a collection of four powerful weapons, Po must leave home to embark on a global quest for redemption and justice that finds him partnered to a nonsensical English non-knight named Wandering Blade (Rita Ora).
“Together, these two mismatched warriors have embarked on an epic adventure to first find the magic weapons and save the world from destruction – and they may even learn a thing or two from each other along the way. .”
Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight hits Netflix on July 14.
