Netflix has landed a sixth season of Cobra Kai — which will also be his last.
The streamer made the announcement on Friday with a video that teases what he calls the show’s “biggest…baddest” season. A premiere date has not been set; the video (watch it below) only says “coming soon”.
Creators Josh Heald, Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg call the decision to end the series “bittersweet”, but one that allows them to bring Cobra Kai to an end as they wish.
“Rediscovering the world at Karate Kid universe has been our humble honor,” the trio said in a statement. “Doing Cobra Kai allowed us to join the same sacred dojo once inhabited by the great Robert Mark Kamen, John Avildsen, Jerry Weintraub and all of the amazing members of the original cast. It also allowed us to play sensei, expand the original storylines and birthing a new generation of underdogs. We never took this opportunity for granted.
“Our goal from day one with Cobra Kai has always been to end it on our terms, leaving the Valley when and where we always imagined. It is therefore with immense pride and gratitude that we are able to announce this achievement. The upcoming Season 6 will mark the conclusion of Cobra Kai.”
A sequel to the Karate Kid movie franchise, Cobra Kai started out as a YouTube series during its relatively brief foray into longer-form scripted programming. After two seasons on YouTube, it moved to Netflix in 2020.
