An original Kung Fu Panda short that I wrote and directed will be included as a bonus content on the Kung Fu Panda 4’s digital release.
Dueling Dumplings is a love letter to my home and a tribute to all my favorite Hong Kong filmmakers and action choreographers. I couldn’t have done it without the most amazing crew. Despite the turbulent times in the studio, our crew went above and beyond. Every frame is a labor of passion and I am so grateful to have them on this short.
I would like to thank my producer, Angie Howard and the production team for their support and endurance of my naiveté. Big shout out to Thomas Grummt, Steve Vallino and Osamu Takehiro for fighting alongside me all the way. Johane Matte, Phillipe Le Brun and Pablo Valle — Thank you for sharing your wisdom and giving us that extra push when we are low on steam.
We hope you enjoy the short as much as we enjoy making it.
