Kung Fu Panda - Cast

Cast

  • Jack Black as Po, an energetic yet immature, accident-prone giant panda. He is also a die-hard fan of the Furious Five and kung fu, as well as being the son of Mr. Ping, in whose noodle shop they are co-workers. In the end, he becomes the Dragon Warrior after defeating Tai Lung; thus he joins the Furious Five who accept him as a true kung fu master.
  • Dustin Hoffman as Master Shifu, an old red panda, who is Po and the Five's sifu. He is the adoptive father of Tai Lung and foster father of Tigress.
  • Angelina Jolie as Tigress, a tiger with an extremely short temper and the leader of the Furious Five. She is Shifu's foster daughter and was the most hostile to Po's receiving the Dragon Warrior title, but eventually reconciled with him.
  • Ian McShane as Tai Lung, a muscular snow leopard, who was denied the Dragon Scroll by Grand Master Oogway because of the true darkness in his heart. After rampaging the Valley of Peace for being denied the scroll, Tai Lung was defeated by Master Oogway and sent to Chorh-Gom Prison for 20 years, after which he escaped and returned for revenge. He is the former adoptive son of Shifu.
  • Jackie Chan as Monkey, a Gee's golden langur and a member of the Furious Five. Like Sun Wukong, the Monkey of Chinese folktales, he is adept with a staff.
  • David Cross as Crane, a Red-crowned Crane and another member of the Furious Five.
  • Seth Rogen as Mantis, a Chinese mantis and another member of the Furious Five.
  • Lucy Liu as Viper, a Green Tree Viper and another member of the Furious Five.
  • Randall Duk Kim as Grand Master Oogway, Shifu's mentor. He is a Galápagos tortoise.
  • James Hong as Mr. Ping, Po's father. He is a happy-go-lucky Chinese goose who runs a noodle restaurant along with his son, who doesn't want to follow his fathers footsteps.
  • Dan Fogler as Zeng, a Chinese goose who is Shifu's messenger.
  • Michael Clarke Duncan as Commander Vachir, a Javan rhinoceros and the leader of the rhino guards of Chor-Gom Prison.

Famous quotes containing the word cast:

    When such as I cast out remorse
    So great a sweetness flows into the breast
    We must laugh and we must sing,
    We are blest by everything,
    Everything we look upon is blest.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    I cast my heart into my rhymes,
    That you, in the dim coming times,
    May know how my heart went with them
    After the red-rose-bordered hem.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    For those who are base in judgement do not know the good they hold in their hands until they cast it off.
    Sophocles (497–406/5 B.C.)
