Sony is releasing another Karate Kid movie on May 30th, this time with Ralph Macchio and Jackie Chan, who starred in the shitty remake that Will Smith made to make his untalented son happy.
But I digress. Today, they released the first trailer, and I think it was a waste of money.
After the success of Cobra Kai, they needed to go big or go home. This is the case where they should’ve gone home.
Macchio is better than this. Or maybe he isn’t.
It is too bad it is too late to wax Karate Kid Legends off.
The first part of Cobra Kai’s final season dropped today, and we got to see who made it to Sekai Taikai — the world championships of karate in Barcelona, Spain. We also found out who left Daniel Russo (Ralph Macchio) and Johnny Lawrence’s (Billy Zabka) newly formed Miyagi-Fang.
So, when will we see who is going to win the world title at the Karate Championship? Netflix originally planned that for November 28th. However, they moved it up 13 days to November 15th! This way, we don’t have to wait as long to see what happens next. And I can’t wait!
It is a Monday when there is a vacation day in the middle of the week. So I am freaking tired. I need coffee and lots of it.
Or so I thought. After watching the trailer for the first part of Cobra Kai’s final season, I am wide awake. It is a pure adrenalin rush!
With Cobra Kai eliminated from the Valley, our senseis and students must decide if and how they will compete in the Sekai Taikai — the world championships of karate.
Part 1 debuts on July 18, Part 2 comes out on November 28, and we have to wait until 2025 for the final episodes.
I don’t want Cobra Kai to end. Hopefully, we have to wait 34 years for the next sequel to The Karate Kid. I don’t know if Ralph Macchio and Billy Zabka can wait that long.
Cobra Kai is coming back for another season on July 18th. But sadly, it is the Karate Kid sequel’s final one, so Netflix is going all out for the series.
The final 15 episodes will air in three parts: Part I debuts in July, Part II starts streaming on November 28, and the finale airs in 2025.
Picking up with Cobra Kai eliminated from the Valley, our senseis and students must decide if and how they will compete in the Sekai Taikai — the world championships of karate.
I don’t want this show to end, but I am happy it is going out in style.
Ralph Macchio is the original Karate Kid. Jackie Chan starred in the shitty remake that Will Smith made for his son. And now the two of them are teaming up to find the next Karate Kid.
Sony Pictures is doing a worldwide search for a Chinese or mixed-race Chinese 15 to 17-year-old who speaks perfect English to play the lead role along with the two actors. It would be helpful if he speaks some Mandarin and is skilled in some martial arts, gymnastics, dance, and/or movement. However, acting experience is not required. But you must be available between March and June to film the movie.
If this sounds like you, your son, or a boy you know in your life, then go to KarateKidCasting.com to apply.
Personally, I think it is fucked up that they didn’t wait until Cobra Kai aired its final season to announce this.
