has been a huge hit with fans since Netflix gave the Karate Kid spin-off the reboot treatment.
Based on the iconic 1980s movie franchise, the series follows original Karate Kid Daniel Larusso (Ralph Macchio) all grown up but still facing grief from his high school bully Johnny Lawrence ().
To date, there have been four series of the throwback drama, with the latest installment seeing the enemies put their differences aside as they attempt to overthrow the corrupt Sensei Kreese (Martin Kove) who is threatening to lead a new generation of kids astray.
Not long after the last season wrapped up, the global streamer confirmed it had ordered a fifth series of Cobra Kai, with stars, including Martin, announcing on Twitter.
According to programme makers, the drama ‘finds Terry Silver (Thomas Ian Griffith) expanding the Cobra Kai empire and trying to make his ‘No Mercy’ style of karate the only game in town.’
The synopsis continues: ‘With Kreese behind bars and Johnny Lawrence setting karate aside to focus on repairing the damage he’s caused, Daniel LaRusso must call on an old friend for help.’
As anticipation mounts, here are all the details about Cobra Kai season 5.
