Imagery from Karate Kid: Legends.
With a subtle detail, the Karate Kid: Legends trailer may have just confirmed the new movie ignores Cobra Kai. Putting the original underdog, Daniel LaRusso, and Mr. Han at the helm, Karate Kid: Legends reunites key characters from the franchise, albeit ones who come from two opposing universes.
Filming for Cobra Kai season 6 began a bit earlier than the movie, in February, while Karate Kid: Legends started production in April. Both projects wrapped in June 2024. Takimg Mr. Miyagi and Mr. Han’s combined legacy into account, Karate Kid: Legends’ connections to Cobra Kai become harder to find, especially when considering Daniel’s arc in the series foreshadows his retirement from karate. The director’s latest comments, however, offer some hope for both projects to at least be situated within the same universe.
