Cobra Kai’s third season is to release a week earlier than expected on January 1, 2021, and as someone who has seen Season 3, fans will not be disappointed. With the release of season 3 comes the talks about the future of the series, & Ralph Macchio has shed light on what the future holds in an interview with Lad Bible. Macchio stated,
“The writers have always felt they had six seasons in their head, where the story arcs can go. So that should all land when the time is right. You don’t want to overstay your welcome, but the fans are having fun and there’s more story there. As long as we’re allowed to keep doing it, Billy and I are in.”
Cobra Kai was given an early season four renewal ahead of its third season premiere on Netflix. Zabka recently spoke a little about the fourth season and went on to say
“We’re more than thinking about season four – we start work on it in a few weeks. And beyond. The show has a long way to go and we’re really having fun with it.”
Cobra Kai having a set beginning and end to their story excites me as I, for one do not like the over extension of a series when there’s no more story left to tell.
The writers recently revealed that they have had talks about bringing in Hilary Swank’s Julie Pierce from 1994’s The Next Karate Kid. They added,
“In our writers’ room we speak about literally every character that has appeared in the Miyagi-verse so it’s obvious that we’ve spoken about Julie Pierce. As to whether or not she’ll return to the series, that’s something you’ll just have to wait to find out.”
