Cobra Kai Renewed For A Fifth Season, Before The Fourth Arrives Here What We Know

Cobra Kai’s characters will keep us company for some time yet. A gesture of gratitude for the enormous success that this new chapter of the Karate Kid stories is continuing to collect around the world. So, despite still missing about four months to the debut of the highly anticipated fourth season, Netflix has decided to renew the dramedy with Ralph Macchio and William Zabka for a further, fifth cycle of episodes.

The news of the early renewal of Cobra Kai does not therefore come unexpected, and not only because we are talking about one of the most followed original series on the streaming platform. Earlier this year, in an interview with TVLine, commenting on the season 3 finale, co-creator Josh Heald said that ending the series with the end of the tournament was never in their plans, adding that he was instead intent on going “far beyond. In our minds, we have seasons of history that need to be told before we get to that ending.”

Cobra Kai: Season 4 streaming in December

As announced in the latest teaser trailer, Cobra Kai’s fourth season will be available to stream on Netflix at some point in December. The advances say that in these episodes Johnny and Daniel will take the field together with their students against the terrible rival John Kreese (Martin Kove). Willing to put aside the historic rivalry that has accompanied them for a lifetime, Johnny and Daniel will also have to deal with another memorable Karate Kid villain, Terry Silver (Thomas Ian Griffith), who returns after receiving a phone call from Kreese.

We also know that this season will give more prominence to the characters of Carmen and Tory, after the promotion of their performers, Vanessa Rubio and Peyton List to the rank of regulars. And again: Dallas Dupree Young (The Big Show) has been hired for the recurring role of Kenny, a boy who, recently arrived in town, relies on karate to defend himself from bullying, while the newcomer Oona O’Brien it will be Devon, a potential new student, competitive and short-tempered when put to the test.
