    Kung Fu Panda is an American martial arts comedy media franchise.

    Originally started in 2008 with the release of the animated film of the same name produced by DreamWorks Animation.

Although everyone initially doubts him, including Po himself, he proves himself worthy as he strives to fulfill his destiny.

Producer ⁠Basil Iwanyk⁠purchased the rights as his first independent film production. Reeves, whose career was declining, liked the script and recommended that the experienced stunt choreographers Stahelski and ⁠David Leitch⁠ direct the action scenes; Stahelski and Leitch successfully lobbied to co-direct the project. ⁠Principal photography⁠began in October 2013, on a $20–$30 million budget, and concluded that December.
