Jack Black returns as the main character in the lucrative "Kung Fu Panda" franchise. The New York City premiere was held earlier this morning at the Ziegfeld Theater in midtown.

Besides J. Black, other stars doing voices in the film include Angelina Jolie, Jackie Chan, Lucy Liu, Dustun Hoffman, to name a few. Here's some plot juice:

Po (Jack Black), now a kung fu master, is fighting to protect the Valley of Peace alongside with Master Shifu (Dustin Hoffman) and the Furious Five (Angelina Jolie, Jackie Chan, Lucy Liu, Seth Rogen and David Cross). When a new evil, the emperor albino peacock Lord Shen (Gary Oldman), emerges to take over China with a weapon said to be so powerful that it threatens the very existence of kung fu itself, Po sets out with the Furious Five to vanquish this threat. But first, he must confront his own mysterious past in order to find the strength to succeed. [Source]
