Cobra Kai is coming to you a week before, bitch.
In an early Christmas gift for Cobra Kai fans, Netflix announced on Thursday that the third season of karate Kid the series sequence will debut on New Year’s Day (also known as January 1, 2021). The streamer previously announced that the new season would be released on January 8.
According to the official Netflix synopsis, the third season of 10 episodes “finds everyone reeling after the violent high school fight between his dojos, which left Miguel in poor condition. While Daniel seeks answers in his past and Johnny seeks redemption, Kreese further manipulates his vulnerable students with his own vision of mastery. The soul of the Valley is at stake, and the destiny of each student and sensei is at stake. “
As previously reported, a pair of veterinarians from the franchise – Tamlyn Tomita and Yuji Okumoto – will reprise their respective Karate Kid 2 Kumiko and Chozen roles in season 3 (watch an exclusive clip of the first meeting with Daniel from Ralph Macchio here).
A mystery remains if another karate Kid alum – Elisabeth Shue – will join them. The official trailer for Season 3 was visibly free of Ali, despite the fact that Season 2 ended with Johnny, unknowingly, receiving a Facebook friend request from his ex-love.
