Netflix has confirmed that the highly anticipated sixth season of Cobra Kai is back in production, releasing a new video teasing some behind-the-scenes footage.
Last year, Cobra Kai Season 6 was confirmed to be the series’ final season, and although production was likely set to begin last year, the team behind the series — and nearly all of Hollywood — paused production due to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.
With both strikes over, production can officially begin again, and Netflix has teased the crew getting ready to film the latest season.
Check out the new Cobrai Kai Season 6 announcement below:
What is Cobra Kai about?
In Cobra Kai, Ralph Macchio and William Zabka revisit their star-making roles from the iconic film franchise The Karate Kid. The epic adversaries return to the dojo thirty years after the events of the 1984 All Valley Karate Tournament. A down-and-out Johnny Lawrence (Zabka) seeks redemption by reopening the infamous Cobra Kai karate dojo, reigniting his rivalry with a now-successful Daniel LaRusso (Macchio), who has been struggling to maintain balance in his life without the guidance of his mentor, Mr. Miyagi.
Cobra Kai is written and executive produced by Josh Heald, Jon Hurwitz, and Hayden Schlossberg via their production company, Counterbalance Entertainment. Will Smith, James Lassiter, and Caleeb Pinkett executive produce for Westbrook Entertainment along with Susan Ekins in association with Sony Pictures Television. Ralph Macchio and William Zabka also serve as executive producers.
