Jackie Chan stars as Master Wu in the animated adventure, with an ensemble rounded out by Justin Theroux, Dave Franco, Olivia Munn, Fred Armisen, Abbi Jacobson, Kumail Nanjiani, Michael Peña and Zach Woods. “The Lego Ninjago Movie” concerns the fate of Ninjago City, which is threatened by the malicious warlord Garmadon (Theroux) — a foe so evil he can only be taken down by acrobatic maneuvers and sly pop-culture references.
The film marks the directorial debut of Charlie Bean and is co-produced by “Lego Movie” directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller. Warner Bros. will release “The Lego Ninjago Movie” on September 22.
