In the lead-up to Kung Fu Panda 4, director Stephanie Ma Stine teased that there is still more to come of Po and the beloved franchise.
Excitement only grew for Kung Fu Panda 4 after it was revealed that all previous villains would be returning for the new film. With Po having to face off against a new enemy but also previous ones… and maybe even himself.
In light of this, fans assumed that this new film would mark the end of Po’s journey. In a new interview withVariety, however, co-director Stephanie Ma Stine teased that there is more to be made and that Po’s story is not over after the new Kung Fu Panda.
The director stated, “This is definitely not the end of Po’s story. Please look forward to more.”
