Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight released last month and now a fourth Kung Fu Panda film is announced. Could they be connected

Could Netflix’s &#8216;Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight&#8217; Have Helped the Film Get a 4th Instalment

We finally have a Kung Fu Panda 4 film in the world. Dreamworks, the studio
behind the original trilogy, recently announced that Po with his furious friends
should be returning to the big screens once again. However, this is not the only
comeback that Po made. The initial return of Jack Black as Po was in Netflix’s
Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight almost a month ago.



So it makes us wonder, after remaining dormant for years, could the Netflix
Original [https://netflixjunkie.com/category/originals/] series have helped the
franchise receive the fourth installment it needed? Let us try to find out an
answer.


DID KUNG FU PANDA: THE DRAGON KNIGHT ACT AS A CATALYST FOR THE NEW FOURTH FILM?

The Kung Fu Panda world has a long history on television. Previously, Kung Fu
Panda: Legends of Awesomeness and Kung Fu Panda: The Paws of Destiny let
spectators enjoy more Po the Panda shenanigans from the comfort of their own
homes. However, the most recent installment of this franchise, Netflix’s Kung Fu
Panda: The Dragon Knight, breaks new ground by being the first of these shows to
have Jack Black repeating his role as Po.

As a result, fans were instantly interested in streaming the new show, so they
did. The show was praised for its voice acting and background score. However, it
lacked the real pizazz the movies had. The show had a decent run on the
streamer, and could not even make it to the top 10 trending list. However, even
after not a great run on the streaming service Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight
helped rekindle the fire that the Kung Fu Panda movies created. And also played
a major role.

IT EXPANDED THE UNIVERSE

Despite not doing too well among the critics. The show played an important role
in the universe of the show holistically. In the show, it was for the first time
since the third film that we saw Po and with a new title. As the new film is
still in its infancy, it is not sure whether it will take place before or after
the Netflix Original series. But one thing is for sure the show will surely be
talked about at some level in the film.

Do you guys think the Netflix series made the existence of the new film
possible? Also, did you guys like the series? Let us know in the comments.

Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight is currently streaming
