Celebrate Tet with New Animated Movies: A Sneak Peek at 2024 Releases
On the first day of Tet, a series of animated films inspired by the iconic “Noah’s Ark” will be released, marking an exciting start to the lunar new year. These films are set to be a delightful surprise for audiences of all ages.
Noah’s Ark
The film “Noah’s Ark” draws inspiration from the biblical story of Noah’s Ark, featuring a unique twist. Instead of focusing on Noah himself, the narrative centers around two stowaways, Vini and Tom, who are not on the official list of animals. As they navigate the tumultuous seas, they discover a “survival of the fittest” society aboard the ark, filled with creatures that are far from friendly. Vini and Tom decide to use their musical talents to unite the diverse inhabitants, hoping to endure the 40-day journey across the ocean. The film is set to premiere nationwide on Tet (February 10, 2024).
Kung Fu Panda 4
After a six-year hiatus, the beloved animated franchise “Kung Fu Panda” returns with its fourth installment. In this sequel, our hero Po faces new challenges while uncovering the mysterious powers of the legendary Tai Lung. Po must navigate through a “dark alliance” to discover a new legend for his role as the Dragon Warrior. The star-studded cast includes Jack Black, Angelina Jolie, and Seth Rogen, among others, lending their voices to bring the characters to life. “Kung Fu Panda 4” is expected to hit theaters on March 8, 2024.
Despicable Me 4
The global blockbuster franchise “Despicable Me” is set to make a grand return with its fourth chapter this summer. While the plot details of “Despicable Me 4” remain under wraps, the original cast, including Steve Carell and Kristen Wiig, will reprise their roles as Gru and Lucy Wilde. Additionally, the beloved Minions will be back, ensuring that audiences are in for a fun ride. The film will be released on July 3, 2024, promising to be a hit that will have viewers laughing worldwide.
Transformers One
The “Transformers” franchise is expanding with the animated film “Transformers One,” which will explore the distant origins of the Cybertron planet.

Featuring the voices of Chris Hemsworth as Optimus Prime and Scarlett Johansson as Elita, the film promises to bring a fresh perspective to the beloved series. “Transformers One” is set for release on September 12, 2024.
