The third season of Cobra Kai was released on Netflix on January 1, 2021, and it’s already a hit. The sequel to Karate Kid is confirmed, in this way, one of the most anticipated and followed products of the streaming platform.
Naturally, there are those who watched the 10 episodes of the third chapter in a few days and now they are already looking for anticipations about the fourth season. The audience is wondering, among other things, what will be the fate of the protagonist Johnny Lawrence and his rival Daniel LaRusso. After all, their relationship is the core of the entire saga, but not only. The actors themselves represent one of the most beloved features of the series. In fact, William Zabka and Ralph Macchio are the same actors that the audience had seen in the film saga, in the role of Johnny and Daniel respectively. Netflix has already renewed Cobra Kai for a fourth season last October and this has intrigued the audience, especially after the exciting finale of season 3.
When Cobra Kai 4 comes out
Given the huge success of all the seasons released so far, the streaming platform is determined to further invest in the TV series of the moment, Cobra Kai. And it has renewed its commitment in the last months of 2020. Unfortunately, due to the health emergency, the works are stopped.
But there are some news that will console the audience: the writing of the episodes of the fourth season is already finished, unfortunately, filming was supposed to start at the beginning of the year but has been postponed due to the health emergency that currently does not allow actors and crew to meet safely and continuously. According to some anticipations they will be held in the fall of 2021, barring further delays.
Director Jon Hurwitz made a post on Twitter announcing that, probably, the fourth season will come a year after the third, that is, in 2022, when the situation will be back to normal.
Cobra Kai 4: anticipations about the possible plot
There is not much news about the plot of the next season. However, speculations are going around in the fan forums and blogs.
In the new episodes the audience will finally get to see the much talked about 51st All Vally Karate Trophy during which Johnny’s students will compete against Daniel’s.
Probably the fights will focus on some of the main characters of the series: Samantha and Miguel, Kyler, Tory and Robby Keene. In addition, the plot will closely follow the evolution of the relationship between Daniel and Johnny after the brief truce occurred thanks to Ali, old flame of both. Of course, the audience expects to see again John Kreese (Martin Kove), Johnny’s old teacher who returned at the end of the first season. In addition, we will be able to see other characters re-emerge from the old cinematic saga.
To know these answers we just have to wait for the new episodes on Netflix. Meanwhile in the different streaming platforms you can find several TV series similar to Cobra Kai.
