Superstar Jackie Chan returns to the franchise for the English version as Master Monkey, and the Chinese version as Panda Po's biological father.
"For me it's like coming home, because I've been doing this for around ten years, they do it again and again, so I do the voices again and again! They said there's some Mandarin words that I can't pronounce well. Like 'my son'. But it's not my problem, it's the director's supervision that is the problem."
Jack Black, who voices panda Po in the English language version, was joined by Kate Hudson at the conference.
He also expressed his excitement at meeting Jackie Chan for the first time.
"I met Jackie Chan. I can't believe I've done three movies with Jackie Chan now. 'Kung Fu Panda' 1, 2, and 3. And this is the first time I met him. I was so excited. You can see our picture together on my Facebook page."
Also, famous singer Jay Chou has voiced the character Monkey in the Chinese version, and performed the theme song.
In this new installment of the popular franchise, Po reunites with his biological father and travels with him to a secret sanctuary of pandas, where he has to fight against a villain who intends to steal the masters' Kung Fu powers.
'Kung Fu Panda 3' is set for release in China and US on January 29th.
