Last week we learned that The Karate Kid was getting a prequel series called Cobra Kai. The series takes place 30 years after the events of the original film and Ralph Macchio and William Zabka are reprising their role of Daniel Larusso and Johnny Lawrence! This series could seriously end up being one of the best things ever!
The series was previously described as revolving “around a down and out Johnny who, seeking redemption, reopens the infamous Cobra Kai dojo. It reignites his rivalry with a now-successful Daniel, who has been struggling to maintain balance in his life without the guidance of his mentor, Mr. Miyagi (the late Pat Morita).” The show is also said to follow the duo “addressing demons from their past and present frustrations — through (what else?) karate.”
