The cast of Cobra Kai is ready to fight again and now we have a release date and first look at the upcoming second season of the YouTube Premium original series.
Cobra Kai will premiere on April 24 and it kicks in with Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) and Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka) after the shocking cliffhanger featuring the return of John Kreese (Martin Kove). When a new rivalry between opposing dojos is born in the aftermath of Cobra Kai’s controversial win at the All-Valley Championships, Daniel realizes his next countermove is to open his own karate training school called Miyagi-Do, in honor of his mentor Mr. Miyagi.
The first season of Cobra Kai was a huge digital success, topping 55 million YouTube views for Episode 1 and ranking as the sixth-most Google-searched TV show in 2018. Produced by Overbrook Entertainment in association with Sony Pictures Television Studios, the series is written and executive produced by Josh Heald and Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg — who together conceived the new Karate Kid storyline that picks up decades after the original film.
