Cobra Kai is coming to an end. The popular Netflix series from the world of karate Kid It will fade on the platform on a slow fire: the final season, season six, will arrive in three installments, each of 5 episodes.
After the premiere of the first part of season six, fans of the show are excited about the possible appearance of a character missing from the universe.
So far, Cobra Kai is closely tied to what happened in the first three Karate Kid films. Ralph Macchio, Martin Kove, and William Zabka Reprising their original roles.
However, there is one movie that all stars. Pat Morita -Mr. Miyagi- which Cobra Kai has not yet delved into: Karate Kid 4 – New Missionreleased in 1994.
In this sense, and given what happens in the first five episodes of season six, it is expected that the great character that Cobra Kai is missing will appear: Julie Piercethe intern played by two-time Oscar winner Hilary Swank In that movie.
In the plot, Julie’s hypothetical appearance would be overlooked by a simple continuity error in the cinematic chronology, but it would make sense: Julie is the granddaughter of Miyagi’s World War II friend, Jack Pierce, with whom the Master continued to maintain a close relationship with Jack’s widow, Louisa.
Pierce, then, could be an ideal character to illustrate Daniel LaRusso’s suspicions about a possible second identity for his mentor.
When asked about a potential Swank appearance, Macchio said he couldn’t say who but there could be one or two appearances from the original cast, telling ET Online: “Who wouldn’t (want Swank to appear)?” “It would be an interesting piece.”
What did Hilary Swank say about her possible appearance in Cobra Kai?
When consulted by Collider, the actress hinted at a possible role in end of the season.And it didn’t convey much hope: “I don’t think I am, unfortunately.”.
The show’s executive producers have spoken out about the subject and said they would love to have Swank as part of the series: “We can’t say if he’ll be back, we can’t say how he’ll be back if he’s back. (Her appearance will remain) a mystery until she’s back or the series ends.”
Pat Morita and Hilary Swank in “Karate Kid 4”It should be noted that Swank’s words were said in February, when the series was not yet in the top 1 of the platform’s trends.
When will the rest of the episodes be shown?
Considering that the first five episodes of season six arrived on July 18, the next five episodes will be released on November 28.
The latter will hit Netflix screens in 2025, at a date to be announced later.
This delivery is considered to be closing. gold brooch “A novel that has captured the attention of millions of viewers around the world,” the series’ creators promised. Will it feature Swank?
What is season 6 about?
