Plot Summary

Years after his first triumph in China, Dre Parker (Jaden Smith) returnsโ€”older, wiser, and more skilled. After moving with his mother againโ€”this time to Japanโ€”he finds himself caught between cultural tradition and modern challenges. At his side once again is Mr. Han (Jackie Chan), who trains Dre in the deeper philosophies of martial arts.

But peace doesnโ€™t last long.

Dre becomes the target of an elite dojo with a brutal sense of honor, led by a cold and mysterious sensei with a painful past. As Dre enters a new tournament with higher stakes, he must overcome internal doubt, an emotional loss, and a rival who fights not just to winโ€”but to destroy.
