In what The Hollywood Reporter describes as a 'first', to which I have to agree, Paramount Home Entertainment are planning to release the superb KUNG FU PANDA on DVD this November, along with a brand new direct-to-dvd companion movie.

Another first is that the film will be released on a Sunday rather than the traditional Tuesday.

The sequel to KUNG FU PANDA is called "Secrets of the Furious Five," with the subtitle -  "The 'Kung Fu Panda' story continues." The trade says that the film delves into the backstories of the "Kung Fu Panda" characters, with all-new animation and Jack Black and Dustin Hoffman reprising their respective voice roles as Po and Master Shifu.

The date to put in your diaries is Sunday November 9th. The double-dvd version will be priced at under $25, with the single release of KUNG FU PANDA around $20.

Quite a high-caliber talent list on this one, as the film is written by John Logan, who penned Martin Scorsese's THE AVIATOR. Industrial Light and Magic, those geniuses from the world of special effects will work on the animation.
