New Karate Kid Film Gets Legendary Title And Official Poster
Last November, Karate Kid star Ralph Macchio and martial arts icon Jackie Chan--who starred in the 2010 remake--announced a new entry in the Karate Kid saga. The film, officially called Karate Kid Legends, will be directed by Johnathan Entwistle, best known for his work on TV with I'm Not Okay With This and The End of the F***ing World, with a screenplay by Rob Lieber.
The film will be the sixth installment in the Karate Kid franchise after three with Macchio as Daniel Larusso, which were followed by The Next Karate Kid with Hillary Swank and a remake. The remake starred Jaden Smith as the Daniel analog, Dre, and Chan in the Mr. Miyagi role, Mr. Han.
Legends are forever.
