‘Cobra Kai’ Teaser: First Look At Ralph Macchio In Next Karate Kid Move




“I just don’t know why you’d ever want to bring back Cobra Kai,” asks Ralph Macchio, the Karate Kid himself, in this first-look teaser for the YouTube Red original series Cobra Kai. He sorta answers his own question later in the trailer: “Johnny, you and I, this, we aren’t done.” Reprising their Karate Kid roles after more than 30 years, Macchio and William Zabka resurrect the old dojo rivalry in the new series from YouTube, Sony Pictures Television and Overbrook Entertainment. Set more than three decades after the 1984 All Valley Karate Tournament, Cobra Kai – if you need a refresher, that’s the name of the old dojo – finds Daniel LaRusso (Macchio) living a comfortable life with his family in Encino, running a string of car dealerships. His old rival Johnny (Zabka), however, hasn’t been so fortunate, and seeks redemption by reopening Cobra Kai.
