Fan of the Karate Kid? Step right this way.
Netflix has renewed Cobra Kai, the series continuation of the iconic The Karate Kid film franchise from Sony Pictures Television, for a fourth season with season 3 set to premiere on 8 January, 2021.
The series has been hugely popular since it made the jump from YouTube Premium to Netflix, and it’s not going away any time soon.
Seasons one and two of the Karate Kid sequel series, starring Ralph Macchio and William Zabka, and has been one of the most popular titles on the platform since.
Netflix describes the show as:
Cobra Kai takes place over 30 years after the events of the 1984 All Valley Karate Tournament with the continuation of the inescapable conflict between Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) and Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka). Season Three finds everyone reeling in the aftermath of the violent high school brawl between their dojos, which has left Miguel in a precarious condition. While Daniel searches for answers in his past and Johnny seeks redemption, Kreese further manipulates his vulnerable students with his own vision of dominance. The soul of the Valley is at stake, and the fate of every student and sensei hangs in the balance.
The series is executive produced and written by Josh Heald, Jon Hurwitz, and Hayden Schlossberg. Will Smith, James Lassiter, Susan Ekins, and Caleeb Pinkett also serve as executive producers, while Ralph Macchio and William Zabka serve as co-executive producers.
