Cobra Kai star Ralph Macchio, who plays Daniel, discusses the show’s future after season 6 and offers an intriguing response about what’s next.
Cobra Kai star Ralph Macchio, who plays Daniel LaRusso, strongly teases the franchise's future after season 6. When it was announced in January that Cobra Kai would be ending with season 6, the news garnered a mixed response.
I’ve walked in the shoes of Daniel LaRusso since 1983. So they’re pretty comfortable shoes. I never cease to be amazed of the longevity and the relevance of that character and in that world so I look at it like—going into season six, that feels right to me, that it’s time to bring kind of Cobra Kai proper in for a landing. And why I say Cobra Kai proper… that’s that section of this universe. It’s sort of like talking about the MCU right? This is sort of the Karate Kid Cinematic Universe.
But conceptually. The rivalries. Who’s going to prevail? How deep in the valley can you possibly go and still keep that rivalry going in a fresh, original way? I think it’s smart. So many shows are given the axe, and you look at Netflix… I mean, how many shows on Netflix go to six seasons? And, mind you, we came in late. Netflix is often—you know, cut shows off before six seasons for whatever the reason. You don’t want to overstay your welcome. So I think this is a good point.
