So the first episode of Cobra Kai season 4 is titled “Let’s Begin.” Based on where we left off last season, this is likely alluding to the fact that Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) and Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka) decided to team up in order to take down Cobra Kai, which is now in the hands of Johnny’s old sensei, John Kreese (Martin Kove).
In the middle of season 3, Johnny had already split from the radical ways of Kreese and created the new Eagle Fang dojo. At the time, he was still at odds with Daniel’s Miyagi-do. But now Cobra Kai is too much of a threat for them to remain enemies. What are the odds that Johnny and Daniel will have a little argument about the name of this new joint venture? Could we get a Miyagi-Fang Dojo?
Cobra Kaiseason 4 is also making some changes among the cast (viaVariety). First up, recurring cast membersVanessa RubioandPeyton Listhave been upgraded to series regulars. Rubio has been around since the first season as Carmen Diaz, the mother of Johnny’s student Miguel (Xolo Maridueña). Meanwhile, List debuted in the second season as Tory Nichols, a tough-as-nails member of Cobra Kai.
There will also be a couple new faces on the scene as well.Dallas Dupree YoungandOona O’Brienwill be appearing as a couple new characters. Young (Cousins for Life,Shameless) will be playing Kenny, a bullied new kid in school who turns to karate as a way to defend himself. O’Brien (from stage productions ofAnnieandSchool of Rock) has landed the role of Devon, a potential new karate student who is relentlessly competitive, a quick study, and equally quick-tempered when she’s provoked. Is it just me or are there too many people taking an interest in karate here?
Anyway, we don’t know whenCobra Kaiseason 4 is slated to arrive on Netflix, but we’ll keep you posted.
