Summer 2024 Movies
Published: September 20, 2022 Show Sony Announces New KARATE KID Movie Coming Summer 2024 By Movieguide® Staff Sony recently announced a new KARATE KID movie, set to release on June 7, 2024. Although Sony revealed no details about the movies, a description acquired by The Hollywood Reporter called the upcoming movie a “return to the original Karate Kid franchise.” The original movie opened in 1984 and has since had three sequels and a 2010 reboot starring Jaden Smith. The original also inspired a TV series called COBRA KAI, which recently began its fifth season. The Netflix series features the movie’s original stars Ralph Macchio and William Zabka. A portion of Movieguide®’s review of the 2010 remake reads:
However, early rumors point to the new movie building off the original franchise of movies instead of continuing from the 2010 version. A portion of Movieguide®’s review for THE NEXT KARATE KID reads:
