Simmons helped 2016's part three end the series on a high note.
All three vibrant films in this series are highly recommended—but part two is the best. A sequel that's deeper, darker, more artistic and ambitious than its predecessor, Po ( Jack Black) and the Furious Five battle evil white peacock Lord Shen ( Gary Oldman), who's attempting to conquer China. Directed by Jennifer Yuh Nelson, Kung Fu Panda 2 grossed $665 million to become one of the highest-grossing films directed by a woman. The voice talents of Bryan Cranston, Kate Hudson and J.K. Simmons helped 2016's part three end the series on a high note.
