‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’ Spinoff From ‘Cobra Kai’ Creators & Bill Posley In Works At Paramount Pictures

Jordan Moreau Less than a year after “Cobra Kai” Season 4 hit Netflix, the karate series is already back and aiming to outdo the crazy, kung-fu action of the 51st All Valley Tournament. In the two-part Season 4 finale, Hawk (Jacob Bertrand) defeated Robby (Tanner Buchanan) to win the boys tournament for Miyagi-Do, but Cobra Kai walked away the ultimate winner after Tory (Peyton List) beat Sam (Mary Mouser). However, Tory later realizes her victory was rigged after she sees Terry Silver (Thomas Ian Griffith) bribe the referee. Meanwhile, Miguel (Xolo Maridueña) runs away to Mexico to find his father, and Terry frames Kreese (Martin Kove), landing him in jail for a crime Terry committed.

Ahead of the series’ return to Netflix on Friday, longtime franchise stars Ralph Macchio and William Zabka sat down with ET’s Kevin Frazier to reflect on the success of the Emmy-nominated series and what late star Noriyuki “Pat” Morita would think of it today. “I think he would love it,” Macchio says, referring to the actor who played Mr. Miyagi in the original films before his death in 2005 at the age of 73, before Zabka adds that “he’s watching it from somewhere.” “It’s a blessing that this thing has been kissed with such great luck and positive impact,” Macchio continues.

And when the Emmy-nominated series returns with season 5, audiences will finally get to see how Terry Silver (Thomas Ian Griffith) plans to expand his empire and make his “No Mercy” style of karate the only way of fighting. In doing so, he recruits Kim Da-Eun, played by Alicia Hannah-Kim.

“You’ve guys got nothing to worry about; I’m a professional.” OK, this is weird, and it’s only coming to me now. On August 7, 2008, I casually pitched and proposed a spin-off film idea in a blog article titled, The Brief Cameo That Begat An Entire Film: Our Take ‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’, back in the day when I regularly just blathered about random things rather than strictly wrote news.

Cobra Kai has dropped its first full-length trailer for season five, teasing an all-out karate war in the Valley.The action-packed trailer, which dropped on Tuesday (August 16), offers a detailed look at villain Terry Silver’s (Thomas Ian Griffith) growing empire, as Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio), Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka) and Chozen Toguchi (Yuji Okumoto) prepare to fight back.The near three-minute-long preview, which you can watch below, also gives a glimpse of John Kreese (Martin Kove) behind bars after Silver framed his former friend in order to build his karate franchise.The fifth season picks up after the dramatic events of the season four finale, where the evil Cobra Kai triumphed in the All Valley Under 18 Karate Tournament, forcing both the Miyagi-Do and Eagle Fang dojos to close down.Netflix‘s official synopsis for the season reads: “Following the shocking results of the All Valley Tournament, Season 5 finds Terry Silver expanding the Cobra Kai empire and trying to make his ‘No Mercy’ style of karate the only game in town.“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.”In addition to Macchio, Zabka, Griffith, Kove and Yuji Okumoto, other returning cast members include Courtney Henggeler as Amanda LaRusso, Xolo Maridueña as Miguel Diaz, Peyton List as Tory Nichols, Mary Mouser as Samantha LaRusso, Vanessa Rubio as Carmen Diaz, Tanner Buchanan as Robby Keene and Jacob Bertrand as Eli “Hawk” Moskowitz.Sean Kanan will also reprise his role as Mike Barnes for the new season, although he was nowhere to be seen in the trailer.Along with Terry, Mike was first introduced in Karate Kid: Part III.

Michaela Zee editor“Cobra Kai” is stirring up some action in the dojo once again as Netflix releases the first official trailer for Season 5.Following last season’s All Valley Karate Tournament, Season 5 reveals that Terry Silver — who now has complete control of Cobra Kai — is planning to expand the dojo across the San Fernando Valley. If Terry goes unchecked, he and his Cobra Kai teachers will spread their form of brutal karate like wildfire.

The best defense is offense. It has been almost four decades since Mr. Miyagi famously taught Daniel LaRusso how to paint a fence and wash a car in The Karate Kid, but Cobra Kai’s rivaling dojos are still going strong.

Dealing with the unexpected. Hilary Duff candidly addressed the ups and downs that come with trying to balance a career and her family.

The new season of “Cobra Kai” is getting ready to kick off.
