Netflix and DreamWorks Animation have announced that Jack Black will reprise his role of Po in the all-new CG animated series, Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight. No release date was provided, but we did get a few first look images.

In celebration of National Panda Day, Black created a bit of “PANDA-MONIUM” by sharing the news that he is stepping back into one of his most popular roles.

In the new series, 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. Together, these two mismatched warriors set out on an epic adventure to find the magical weapons first and save the world from destruction — and they may even learn a thing or two from each other along the way.

Peter Hastings and Shaunt Nigoghossian executive produce, with Chris Amick and Ben Mekler serving as co-executive producers. The animation is produced by DreamWorks Animation.
