Po is back.

Just check him out in the first trailer for the upcoming Kung Fu Panda 3.

What we learn in the new clip is that Po (Jack Black) reunites with his dad Li (Bryan Cranston) in the third installment of the hit animated franchise.

When they first meet, however, they don't realize their true relationship.

Li explains he's looking for his son who he lost "many years ago."

"I lost my father," Po says.

"Good luck to you," Li says.

Po replies, "You, too. I hope you find your son."

New to the franchise is J.K. Simmons. USA Today reports that the Oscar winner voices a villainous bull named Kai.

Kai not only battles Po, but also kung fu warrior trainer Master Shifu and the Furious Five warriors: Tigress (Angelina Jolie), Monkey (Jackie Chan), Mantis (Seth Rogen), Crane (David Cross) and Viper (Lucy Liu).

Rebel Wilson also joins the cast as flirtatious female panda Mei Mei.

Directed by Jennifer Yuh and Allesandro Carloni, Kung Fu Panda 3 hits theaters on Jan. 29, 2016.

A voiceover in the trailer exclaims, "A kung fu master is prepared to train hard, move fast, be brave and above all, be ready for anything. But next January nothing can prepare him for his greatest challenge yet."

We can't wait.
