Black, Cee-Lo cover 'Kung Fu Fighting'

Jack Black and Cee-Lo Green have teamed up for a cover of Carl Douglas's hit single 'Kung Fu Fighting'.

The duo's collaboration will appear on the soundtrack to Black's latest comedy vehicle Kung Fu Panda, reports Billboard.

It will be released on May 27, while the full soundtrack from Hans Zimmer and John Powell will be in shops on June 3.

Kung Fu Panda, which features the voices of Jackie Chan, Angelina Jolie and Dustin Hoffman, opens at cinemas in June.

Speaking about the collaboration, Gnarls Barkley star Cee-Lo said: "It was inspiring and an honour to have the opportunity to reintroduce the record to a brand new audience, sprinkled with a little of me on top."

The original single reached number one in the UK chart and Billboard Hot 100 in 1974.
