Please note that the following is the plot of Cobra Kai Season 5, which is now available on Netflix. If you haven’t seen it yet and don’t want to know anything about its content, I suggest you stop reading this article now.
The fifth season of Cobra Kai, the series that follows the Karate Kids trilogy, has made a good throwback that will make many subscribers of the Netflix platform wake up their nostalgic streak!
Imprisoned for a crime he didn’t commit, Sensei John Crease engaged in a form of introspection, seeing several characters from his past – but also from his present – visit him: today, several of his students, including his muse. Tori Nichols, a younger version of herself, or at least the best student she ever had (in her words): Johnny Lawrence.
In this case, the character appeared in a teenage version, as he was in the first Karate Kid film released in 1984, starring William Zabka (who continues to play him in the Cobra Kai series). Was the latter the subject of a digital rejuvenation for the needs of this sequence?
No, it’s actually another actor who interpreted the role of young Johnny Lawrence during this sequence; In this case, Logan Coffey, an American comedian in his early thirties, has appeared notably in supporting roles in series such as Hollywood and Gaslight.
A performance that only lasted a few seconds, but which allowed early fans to relive a part of their own adolescence. And at the same time he remembered all the way that Johnny Lawrence has gone, now at the head of his own dojo: the poisonous eagle!
All five seasons of Cobra Kai are now available exclusively on Netflix!
