After the recent premiere of Cobra Kai Season 6 Part 1, fans have become curious about whether there’s a Season 7 release date. Cobra Kai is an action martial arts comedy-drama series that serves as a sequel to 1984’s The Karate Kid. The story is set 34 years after The Karate Kid. It sees Johnny Lawrence re-open the Cobra Kai dojo, which reignites his rivalry with Daniel LaRusso, who vows to take down the dojo.
Here’s all we know about the Cobra Kai Season 7’s release date and whether or not it’s coming out.
Is there a Cobra Kai Season 7 release date?
There is no Cobra Kai Season 7 release date, as it is not happening. The series is ending with its sixth season, which has been split into three parts.
As reported by Deadline in January 2023, the creators of Cobra Kai, Josh Heald, Jon Hurwitz, and Hayden Schlossberg, announced in a letter to fans that they decided to end the series via its sixth season and on their own terms. They also expressed pride for having created the series and also expressed thankfulness for the opportunity.
However, they also expressed that Cobra Kai’s ending did not mark the end for the universe or, as they coined it, “Miyagiverse.” They hoped that they could tell more Karate Kid/Cobra Kai stories later down the line and expressed immense appreciation toward the fans.
Why Cobra Kai Season 7 isn’t happening?
Cobra Kai Season 7 isn’t coming out. This is because, as mentioned above, the creators have decided to end the series with its sixth season.
Although Cobra Kai is ending, fans need not be upset. Ralph Macchio’s Daniel LaRusso will once again return in 2025 in the sixth Karate Kid film. Here, he will also be joined by Jackie Chan, who reprises his role from 2010’s The Karate Kid.
Cobra Kai Season 6 Part 1 is currently streaming on Netflix. The show stars Ralph Macchio, William Zabka, Xolo Mariduena, Peyton List, and Jacob Bertrand, among others.
