Some movies are nostalgic and people remember those movies once in a while, and remakes of them don’t feel the same no matter what. The Karate Kid series seems to be an exception in this regard.
In fact, a Karate Kid movie was shot in 2010 and starring Jaden Smith and Jackie Chan, but it did not receive the expected support and interest from the audience. On the other hand, the Cobra Kai series on Netflix made the movie a production that people care about and talk about. Sony has now announced that a new Karate Kid movie will be shot.
Karate Kid returns in 2024
Sony announced the movie in its description, but the information they gave is only that we will see a The Karate Kid movie in 2024, there are no other details announced. This shows that there are two alternatives before us.
A sequel featuring Jaden Smith, who is now 24 years old and looks more like a TFF 1st League winger than a child, is hardly possible. In this case; Either there will be a new The Karate Kid movie that starts the story all over again, or the series will focus on Johnny Lawrence, who has long paid redemption for Sony to get rid of his old movie villain position.
Either way, there are currently no cast members officially announced by Sony. On the other hand, when we look at other statements, we see that Sony has made room for this movie in its calendar. The movie Madame Web, which takes place in the Spider-Man universe but does not contain Spider-Man, was moved four months ago, while Kraven the Hunter movie was moved to January 2023. The new Karate Kid movie will be released in June 2024, according to the information received.
