The Pink Panther Strikes Again is the fifth film in the Pink Panther series and continues the story after the end of The Return of the Pink Panther. However, it is only the third to include the words "Pink Panther" in its title, despite the fact that the story does not involve the Pink Panther diamond of the previous films. Unused footage from the film was later included in Trail of the Pink Panther.
