10 Big 2016 Movies That Were Meant To Come Out Last Year

3. Kung Fu Panda 3

The Movie: Thought Kung Fu Panda was just a fun genre homage? Think again. Dreamworks have an epic story planned out for Po and the Furious Five that runs through five instalments (at least). This third part will follow on from the shocking reveal that Po isn't a goose and see him reunite with his birth family (who are pandas, obviously). Original Release Date: 18th March 2016 Second Release Date: 23rd December 2015 Third Release Date: 18th March 2016 Final Release Date: 29th January 2016 Why Did It Change: OK, this one's a saga almost as big as what Dreamworks have in store for the narrative. The film was originally set for this year, but was then pushed back to late 2016, only to be put back in its original slot when it became clear Star Wars would eclipse everything else (even the typically immune kids movies). But that wasn't all - about a year before release the film was pushed forward by a couple of months to January (although it's still set for March in the UK).
