Panda Plan is returning for a sequel, and Jackie Chan is ready to kick up more hijinks protecting Hu Hu from a lost civilization that believes this creature can save them from disaster. Thus begins Panda Plan 2: The Magical Tribe. The film hits theatres March 13, 2026, and pandemonium is sure to ensue. Between more martial arts chaos and perhaps a message nestled underneath, fans of this charming partnership between man and animal should be pleased.
As for how many years have elapsed since the last film, it’s safe to say not much time has passed. Chan is still playing a fictionalized version of himself, once again recruited to safeguard this massive, cute, and cuddly panda. My review of the first film can be read here. This latest instalment hints at a more Indiana Jones-styled adventure. Although CGI is required to deliver some of the panda’s performances, that’s the only real suspension of disbelief needed.
