Po is looking for the spice in the latest Kung Fu Panda 4 trailer, which parodies the upcoming Dune: Part Two in a new preview for the animated film.
In the Dune-themed trailer, Po (Jack Black) is seen in an open desert, before holding up a bowl of dumplings and commenting on the amount of “spice” on them. The trailer then cuts into a conventional preview for the upcoming film.

Who is in Kung Fu Panda 4?
Kung Fu Panda 4 is directed by Mike Mitchell and Stephanie Ma Stine, with Rebecca Huntley serving as the producer. Joining Black are Awkwafina, Viola Davis, Dustin Hoffman, James Hong, Bryan Cranston, Ian McShane, Ke Huy Quan, Lori Tan Chinn, Ronny Chieng, and more.
“After three death-defying adventures defeating world-class villains with his unmatched courage and mad martial arts skills, Po, the Dragon Warrior, is called upon by destiny to. . . give it a rest already,” reads the synopsis. “More specifically, he’s tapped to become the Spiritual Leader of the Valley of Peace. That poses a couple of obvious problems. First, Po knows as much about spiritual leadership as he does about the paleo diet, and second, he needs to quickly find and train a new Dragon Warrior before he can assume his new lofty position.”
The Kung Fu Panda franchise began in 2008 with the first film getting nominated for an Oscar Award for Best Animated Feature. It featured the voices of Angelina Jolie, Jackie Chan, Lucy Liu, Dustin Hoffman, James Hong, and Seth Rogen. Due to its success, it was followed by two sequels in 2011 and 2016. The trilogy currently has a combined gross of over $1.8 billion at the worldwide box office.
