Cobra Kai spin-off would be on its way to Netflix | Atomix

The first part of the last season of Cobra Kai It has already premiered on Netflix, and although these episodes have not had the desired success, the streaming giant is not giving up on this property, So they are already thinking about giving the green light to a new spin-off, one that would focus on Master Miyagi.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the creators of Cobra KaiHayden Schlossberg, Josh Heald and Jon Hurwitz, are already working on a prequel to The Karate Kid, one that focuses on Master Miyagi’s pastan element that struck a chord with many during the original trilogy of films, but we never saw in its entirety. This shouldn’t come as a huge surprise, as season six explores this theme quite a bit, and it’s something that will surely gain more weight as we get closer to the end of Cobra Kai. Here’s what Schlossberg had to say about it:

“We think about Cobra Kai spin-offs all the time. Cobra Kai itself is, in a way, a spin-off of The Karate Kid.

“We took that branch and created our own tree out of it, and we felt like we could do that with any of the characters on the show. It’s one of the reasons we did the Miyagi box story this season. It opens up all these questions about Mr. Miyagi and what his life was like, and that’s something we’ve wanted to do for a while.”

While there is currently no information from Netflix about a new spin-off of The Karate Kid, the creators of Cobra Kai They talk about this project in such a way that it indicates that they are already working on this new series, or at least in its pre-production. With a Netflix event planned for September, We will probably have more information about the future of this series next month..

Let us remember that A new The Karate Kid movie is also in development, with Ralph Macchio reprising his role as Daniel on the big screen.this together with Jackie Chan. In related topics, you can learn more about the Netflix event for September here.

Author’s Note:

I’m not sure a Miyagi series could work as well as Cobra Kai has. It’s not impossible, but it’s not easy to do either, especially considering that Pat Morita is dead, and Cobra Kai didn’t try to use another actor to show us any flashbacks with this character.
