The force is with Li and his father Po in the latest teaser trailer of Alessandro Carloni and Jennifer Yuh's "Kung Fu Panda 3" as it featured a "Star Wars" parody.

With the title "A Father Rises," the teaser trailer is one minute long and starts of with a breath sound with the statement "Nothing can prepare you for the return of the legend" divided in half, along with a voice over saying "I... am your father." Then, the next sequence features Li and Po, as the latter tells the former that he is Li's father while he climbs the stairs.

According to Comic Book Resources, the introduction of the "Kung Fu Panda 3" teaser trailer has made a touch of "Star Wars" while shifting the path of the animated film from the track of J.J. Abrams' "Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens." 

While Li's labored breathing seemed to be Sith Lord's ventilator, the teaser trailer went on to be amusing, as per Cinema Blend.
