A new film titled Karate Kid: Legends is coming to cinemas in 2025 uniting characters from the old Karate Kid franchise, and the more recent.
Jackie Chan and Ralph Macchio lead the cast of the new film, alongside Ben Wang, Joshua Jackson Sadie Stanley, and Ming-Na Wen. The movie is directed by Jonathan Entwistle (The End of the F***ing World) from a screenplay by Rob Lieber (Peter Rabbit).
In Karate Kid: Legends, after a family tragedy, kung fu prodigy Li Fong (Ben Wang) is uprooted from his home in Beijing and forced to move to New York City with his mother. Li struggles to let go of his past as he tries to fit in with his new classmates, and although he doesn’t want to fight, trouble seems to find him everywhere. When a new friend needs his help, Li enters a karate competition – but his skills alone aren’t enough. Li’s kung fu teacher Mr. Han (Jackie Chan) enlists original Karate Kid Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) for help, and Li learns a new way to fight, merging their two styles into one for the ultimate martial arts showdown.
Sony Pictures will release the film on 30th May next year. Expect this one to be massive.
Here’s the trailer.
