Kung Fu Panda 2 released in 2011

Looks like everybody loved “Kung Fu Panda” the animated 2008 film and DreamWorks Animation SKG announced that there is a next sequel that will be released in 2011.

The sequel is in the works and promises more funny moments with the main character.

The actor crew will still be the same, meaning Jack Black, as kung fu fan Po, Angelina Jolie and other members of the original voice cast.

But here come the surprise: the sequel will be released in 3-D- the new standard for all DreamWorks Animation movies starting next year - on regular and Imax screens worldwide.

The 2011 date means that "Panda" will be sharing the summer box-office schedule with Disney/Pixar's "Cars 2," which Disney moved last week from a 2012 release to summer 2011.

The original "Panda," which grossed more than $626 million worldwide, is DreamWorks Animation's most successful nonsequel.

The news that it will be released in 3-D standard pissed off some people. Maybe it is not so bad after all. I think it will be an interesting experience to watch the movie in 3D.
