Directed by Jonathan Entwistle (I Am Not Okay with This, The End of the F***ing World) in his feature film directorial debut, Karate Kid: Legends picks up after the events of the hit series Cobra Kai. The story revolves around a gifted martial artist, Li Fong (played by Ben Wang), who relocates to New York City with his mother. But his new life takes a challenging turn when he crosses paths with Conor Day (Aramis Knight), a local karate champion.

So, Li decides to enter a high-stakes karate tournament under the guidance of not one, but two mentors – his Kung Fu teacher, Mr. Han (Jackie Chan), and Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio), blending their unique skills for the ultimate martial arts showdown. The film also features Joshua Jackson, Sadie Stanley, and Ming-Na Wen in supporting roles.
