Netflix has just posted the anticipated announcement for the sixth and final season of Cobra Kai, according to ComicBook. This trailer showcases moments from not only the series but also its origin from the 1984 film, The Karate Kid. The creators of the series also put out letter to the fans promising that this season of Cobra Kai will be the biggest. In the letter, it explains to fans the move to Netflix and how the series has only gotten bigger since its start on YouTube as it amassed a larger fan base.
The trailer for the upcoming season is below.
According to an interview with ComicBook, Griffin Santopierto (Terrifier 2) spoke about what he’d like to see in the final season, “Yeah, I think that in season four we got to see that they actually started talking, which is something that we never really saw them do. And for season six, I would really like to, one, I would like to see what Daniel thinks about his son doing karate now, because we never really got a moment where Daniel’s like, ‘Oh, you’re in the Dojo now?’ He wasn’t really a part of getting him into that. So I think I would be interested to see what he thinks about that and get to explore more of why they haven’t had this great relationship before.”
Santopietro continues to explain, “I mean Anthony and Daniel never really seemed to be as close as Sam was with him, and Daniel obviously didn’t grow up with his dad around, so I bet there’s a lot of interesting stuff that could be explored there.”
The creators of the series wrote a letter to the fans, according to ComicBook. Part of the letter stated, “Our day one goal with Cobra Kai has always been to end it on our terms, leaving the Valley in the time and place we’ve always imagined. So it is with immense pride and thankfulness that we are able to announce that achievement. The upcoming Season Six will mark the conclusion of Cobra Kai.”
The entire letter to fans was posted on the official Netflix Twitter down below.
Cobra Kai season six has yet to have an official release date, but it is speculated to premiere sometime this year.
