Karate Kid: Legends

Summary

Karate Kid: Legends is a 2025 American martial arts drama film starring Jackie Chan and Ralph Macchio, while introducing Ben Wang as the main lead. It is the sixth film in The Karate Kid franchise, serving as a follow-up to The Karate Kid (2010) and the television series Cobra Kai (2018–2025).
