Where To Watch All 3 Kung Fu Panda Movies

The first three Kung Fu Panda movies aren't all available for streaming, but multiple online platforms offer rental and purchasing options for them.

Summary

  • Kung Fu Panda and Kung Fu Panda 2 are not available for streaming in the US, but can be rented or bought digitally from various services.
  • Kung Fu Panda 3 is currently streaming on Netflix, so subscribers can watch it without additional cost.
  • The rental and purchase prices for the three Kung Fu Panda movies are relatively consistent across different platforms, with rental prices either $3.79 or 3.99 and buying prices at $14.99.

The Kung Fu Panda movie franchise includes three films between 2008 and 2016, available in some or other form online. These animated DreamWorks movies follow Po, a panda chosen as the prophesied Dragon Warrior and his journey through learning kung fu and fulfilling his fate. The franchise sees major commercial and critical success, particularly for its interpretation of the wuxia Chinese genre of fiction, which typically follows martial arts. Moreover, as a media franchise, Kung Fu Panda also includes multiple television series and short films.

With Kung Fu Panda 4 joining the franchise in 2024, many may be drawn to the existing trilogy. Whether hoping to revisit Po's adventures or experience them for the first time, the first three Kung Fu Panda movies are available for digital rental or purchase. Unfortunately, not all Kung Fu Panda movies are available on streaming platforms. However, there's a history of some of the Kung Fu Panda movies being added and removed on streamers, so a return is always possible.

Kung Fu Panda & Kung Fu Panda 2 Are Not Available On Streaming

Sadly, Kung Fu Panda and Kung Fu Panda 2 are not currently on any streaming services in the United States. Previously, Kung Fu Panda 2 was available on the popular streamer Netflix, but was removed in December 2023. While the first two installments of the Kung Fu Panda movie franchise aren't currently available for streaming, they can be rented or bought digitally from an array of services.

Kung Fu Panda 3 Is Streaming On Netflix

If audiences commit to a rental or purchase of Kung Fu Panda and Kung Fu Panda 2, they can continue the story with Kung Fu Panda 3 easily on Netflix. This means that audiences will only need to pay for a Netflix subscription to watch Kung Fu Panda 3 as much as they wish while it's in the streamer's catalog. Netflix's subscriptions offer a vast selection of content and have a three-tier price plan. The standard package including ads is $6.99 per month, the standard package without ads is $15.49 per month, and the premium plan is $22.99 per month.

Netflix's premium plan includes benefits, such as two added members and up to four supported devices using the account at a time.

Given the Universal and Netflix agreement regarding DreamWorks features, it's unclear whether Kung Fu Panda 3 will remain on one streaming platform. The agreement stipulates that Netflix holds a 10-month streaming window after a four-month period on Universal's service Peacock following theatrical releases (via Cartoon Brew). Despite this, Kung Fu Panda 3 is, at least, accessible on Netflix prior to Kung Fu Panda 4's release.
