Cobra Kai Season 5: Release Date, Cast, Trailer, and Everything You Need to Know

Don't miss

When Daniel LaRusso delivered a flawless front kick to Johnny Lawrence’s face to win the match and take the title in The Karate Kid, we believed we had seen the last of them. However, a new show started airing in 2017 to indicate that these adversaries were still around.

Josh Heald, Jon Hurwitz, and Hayden Schlossberg developed Cobra Kai based on Robert Mark Kamen’s The Karate Kid movie series. The All Valley Karate Tournament of 1984 takes place 34 years later in the television series. The series retells the “Miyagi-Verse” story from Lawrence’s perspective as he attempts to atone for his sins by rebuilding the notorious Cobra Kai dojo and reignites his old feud with a now-prosperous Daniel LaRusso. The Karate Kid series stars Ralph Macchio, William Zabka, Martin Kove, Yuji Okumoto, and Thomas Ian Griffith return in Cobra Kai to reprise their legendary roles.

On May 2, 2018, YouTube Red debuted Cobra Kai. On April 24, 2019, the second season of the program was made available on YouTube Premium. However, it was revealed that the show would move off of YouTube and onto another site following the creation of the third season, which was scheduled to be released on the platform in 2020.

It was stated that this was done because the producers needed a platform that would allow them to keep that option open because Youtube was not renewing the show for a fourth season. It was revealed on June 22, 2020, that the show would transfer to Netflix and bring the third season with it. On January 1st, 2021, Netflix (Money Heist: Korea Season 2) launched the third season of Cobra Kai. Netflix (She Season 3) confirmed an early renewal for a fourth season on October 2, 2020, before Season 3 was made available. The fourth season debuted on December 31, 2021.

Cobra Kai has earned a ton of praise from the critics and has a large following on YouTube and Netflix (Bastard Season 2). The program has won and been nominated for a number of honors, including a “Outstanding Comedy Series” nomination at the 73rd Primetime Emmy Awards. Here is all you need to know about Cobra Kai Season 5, which is quickly approaching.

Who Are The Cast Of Cobra Kai Season 5?

In Cobra Kai Season 5, Ralph Macchio, who played Daniel LaRusso in The Karate Kid series, will reprise his part. Macchio’s performance as Johnny Cade in Francis Ford Coppola’s coming-of-age film The Outsiders may also be familiar to you. Additionally, Macchio has appeared in movies like A Good Night to Die and Hitchcock as well as TV shows like Ugly Betty and The Deuce.

In The Karate Kid, William Zabka made his acting debut as Johnny Lawrence. In Cobra Kai Season 5, he will reprise that role. He is also well-known for his parts in Landspeed and High Voltage. Terry Silver, the nemesis and tormentor of Daniel LaRusso, will also be played once more by Thomas Ian Griffith. In The Karate Kid Part III, Griffith also made his acting debut as Terry Silver. He is also well-known for appearing in shows like Another World and One Tree Hill as well as movies like Crackerjack and John Carpenter’s Vampires.

This season, Yuji Okumoto will return to the role of Chozen. If you recall, Daniel and his longtime foe Chozen reunited at the end of Cobra Kai Season 4. The team’s primary goal for this season is to eliminate Silver. In the upcoming season of Cobra Kai, Peyton List will also be back in the role of Tory Nichols. List is most recognized for her role as Emma in the Jessie series on the Disney Channel. Additionally, she played the same part in Bunk’d, the show’s spinoff series. In the Diary of a Wimpy Kid film series from 2011 to 2012, List played Holly Hills.

Tanner Buchanan will return to the show as Robby Keene, Johnny Lawrence’s estranged son, whose storyline has been one of the most compelling throughout the course of the previous four seasons. Buchanan had roles in popular television series before Cobra Kai, including Designated Survivor, Fuller House, Girl Meets World, and The Fosters. He co-starred in He’s All That from the previous year with TikTok sensation Addison Rae.

Xolo Mariduea will return as Miguel Diaz, Johnny’s protege. Mariduea’s portrayal as Miguel was his big break; before that, he played Victor Graham on the hit NBC series Parenthood. Mariduea will soon don the titular costume for the 2023 release of the DC superhero movie Blue Beetle.

Martin Kove, Courtney Henggeler, and Mary Mouser are three additional celebrities who will make a comeback this season.

Dallas Dupree Young will return as a series regular as Kenny Payne, who first appeared on Cobra Kai in Season 4 as a recurring character. This season, Alicia Hannah-Kim, a new cast member, will join the cast and work alongside Terry Silver.

Mike Barnes, the bad boy of karate, will be played by Sean Kanan again in The Karate Kid Part III, although it’s unclear how he’ll fit into the new season.
