News about William Zabka

Cobra Kai will finally return for its sixth and final season this summer, with Netflix revealing the season will actually roll out in three separate parts. Netflix rolled out a new trailer for this upcoming season, which is set shortly after Season 5, when Cobra Kai was eliminated from the Valley tournament. Both the senseis (Ralph Macchio and William Zabka) and the students must decide about competing in the Sekai Taikai, the karate world championships.

In Atlanta, Netflix has announced that their beloved Karate Kid sequel series Cobra Kai is filming in its sixth and final season. Last week, the streaming service showed a preview photo and then deleted a video from the site on Monday. Both Ralph Macchio and William Zabka have returned as Daniel LaRusso and Johnny Lawrence for the final season, where they are both set to represent their dojos in the Sekai Taikai international karate tournament.

The Karate Kid franchise has existed solely through the "Cobra Kai" television series up to now, but with a new film in 2024, it's expected to return to the big screen. The untitled project would be the sixth installment in the series and will be released exactly 40 years after the first "Karate Kid" film premiered in 1984. Ralph Macchio stars in the original film as a young boy named Daniel LaRusso, who learns karate from martial arts master Mr. Miyagi (Pat Morita) in order to protect himself against a group of bullies, one of whom includes Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka). Since the iconic pair's rivalry is also at the root of "Cobra Kai," we're left wondering if the forthcoming film will bring them back once more. Macchio said in September 2022 that he was not attached to the project, but that anything could happen since the film was still in its early stages. "I believe that [will be found] in the near future, or I may have nothing to do with it," Macchio said. "We'll talk when I know what's going on."

After the series's up-coming season, Netflix announced on Friday that Cobra Kai, its beloved series, will be coming to an end. The streamer announced that the film, which was a sequel to the Ralph Macchio-starring Karate Kid films, had been renewed for a sixth season. Describing the next batch of episodes as its 'the biggest' and 'baddest' season to date, the streamer said in a statement: 'Cobra Kai never dies! Cobra Kai Season 6 will be the last showdown after five bada** seasons. Netflix will soon bring the epic conclusion to the decades-long karate story.'

Mike Barnes, the Karate Kid III's hunky bad boy, has rejoined the franchise in season five of Cobra Kai after three decades. Sean Kanan, a veteran daytime television star, sat down with DailyMail.com to talk about the 'humbling' experience of reprising his well-known role alongside Ralph Macchio and William Zabka. In the third installment of the Karate Kid films, Kanan became a Hollywood heartthrob, but he admitted that he barely made it to the film alive. The actor suffered internal bleeding from one of the fight scenes, and he said the ordeal was one of his life's'scariest' moments. While recalling the traumatic near-death experience, he said, "They didn't know if I could live."

On Sunday, Rachel Bloom and Niecy Nash looked more glamorous than ever at the second night of the Creative Arts Emmy Awards at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles. Bloom, 35, displayed her toned arms in a vivacious floral sleeveless skirt cinched at the waist with a belt. With a middle portion, the Crazy Ex-Girlfriend actress transformed her auburn tresses into a slicked back bun for the occasion. In the meantime, the television presenter, 52, oozed Hollywood glamour in a figure-hugging one-shoulder black gown that showcased her svelte cleavage.

Netflix unveiled the first full trailer for Cobra Kai's action-packed fifth season on Tuesday, which premieres on September 9. Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) teams up with his former Karate Kid rivals Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka) and Chozen Toumoto (Yuji Okumoto) to defeat Cobra Kai leader Terry Silver (Thomas Ian Griffith).

Netflix has revealed that Mike Barnes (Sean Kanan) 'bad boy' of The Karate Kid Part III, the fifth season of Cobra Kai, which premieres on Netflix on September 9. 'So excited to finally announce that Mike Barnes will be a part of season 5!' On Tuesday, 55-year-old Sean gushed on Instagram. [Creators Josh Heald, Jon Hurwitz, and Hayden Schlossberg] told me an amazing tale.' Can't wait for you all to see it!'
