Netflix has announced the sixth and final season of Cobra Kai will be an extended three-part event that will begin this summer and end in 2025. Watch the teaser and check out images from the final season below…
Cobra Kai is a sequel series to the 1984 classic The Karate Kid and its sequels, following Johnny Lawrence as he restarts the Cobra Kai dojo and sets off a chain of events that see his and Daniel La Russo’s lives get increasingly more complicated. The synopsis for the final season reads:
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.
The final season of the series consists of 15 episodes, the largest of any of its seasons to date, that will be split up into three parts and premiere over the year. Part 1 will premiere this summer on July 18th, Part 2 in the fall on November 28th and Part 3 on an undetermined date in 2025.
Though Cobra Kai may be ending, the Karate Kid franchise will go on as Macchio will once again reprise his role as Danny in a new Karate Kid film alongside Jackie Chan, who will be reprising his role from the 2010 remake, bringing it into the original series’ continuity. That film currently has a release date of May 30th, 2025, so it is likely we’ll see Part 3 of Cobra Kai‘s final season sometime in the late winter/early spring before the film’s release.
Cobra Kai stars William Zabka, Ralph Macchio, Martin Kove,Thomas Ian Griffith, Xolo Maridueña, Tanner Buchanan, Mary Mouser, Courtney Henggeler, Yuji Okumoto, Jacob Bertrand, Gianni DeCenzo, Vanessa Rubio, Peyton List, Dallas Dupree Young, Alicia Hannah-Kim and C.S. Lee.
Cobra Kai Season 6 – Part 1 will premiere on Netflix July 18th with Part 2 releasing November 28th.
