Cobra Kai

Cobra Kai - Season 3 (2021)

Cobra Kai is a TV series sequel to The Karate Kid film series. The series features the conflict between the rival karate dojos of a revived Cobra Kai, led by Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka), and Miyagi-do, led by Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio), nearly 40 years following the events of the film trilogy. The first two seasons of Cobra Kai premiered in 2018 and 2019 respectively, on the premium service YouTube RED. The third season of Cobra Kai features flashbacks of a young Kreese (portrayed in the present by Martin Kove) during his service in the Vietnam War with the Green Berets. The entire third season premiered on Netflix on January 1, 2021 after Youtube decided to not further produce more seasons of CK.
