As for whether Swank will indeed appear inCobra Kaiseason 6 , co - showrunner Heald is n’t let anything out of the bag , but does tease the recurrence of unnamedKarate Kiduniverse doer who have not yet been seen on the show . He spoke on the matter asScreen Rantvisited theCobra Kaiset and sat in for a roundtable word . Check out his remarks below :
When it add up to Hilary Swank , I can not remark at all . We go with the 1980s rules of we want you to be surprised about who you might see in the series , who you do n’t see in the serial publication . I will say , as with I call back every season , there are return fount in time of year 6 from the franchise who have not been on the show before . I wo n’t say who , but that that should sufficiently cram up speculation .
Swank Is The One Remaining Karate Kid Universe Actor Who Needs To Debut On Cobra Kai
And Season 6 Is Her Last Chance
Macchio and Lawrence open up the threshold of success forCobra Kaiwhen they agreed to reprise the role of Daniel and Johnny , giving the show all it require to function as a nostalgic revisit of the still - popularKarate Kidfranchise . ThatCobra Kaiworked as something more than nostalgia was down to the show ’s writing , and to the cast of its novel , younger fictitious character , particularly Xolo Maridueña as Miguel , Peyton List as Tory and Mary Mouser as Samantha .
Cobra Kaiarguably did n’t need more returningKarate Kidcharacters , but it nevertheless preserve bringing in far-famed figure from the franchise ’s past tense . Kove as Kreese was a strong summation for the striking struggle he spawn , as was Griffith as Silver , whose reaching upped the stakes even more . Yuji Okumoto ’s takings as Chozen offer that fictitious character a chance at redemption , while Elizabeth Shue ’s return as Ali was less impactful , but still welcome .
Cobra Kaiseason 6 will be supersized , with 15 episodes spill into a three - part time of year .
AsCobra Kaiheads into time of year 6 , Swank ’s character Julie is the only major digit left from the original motion picture whose arriver on the show seems like a essential . It could be that Swank has no interest in returning 30 years after she replaced Macchio as the principal of the series . But if she is concerned , then Julie should get her chance to be part of the natural process . Swank said in a recent interview that she has not been meet about a time of year 6 appearance , but that could just be a strategical fib , as the show keeps news under wrapper .
