Cobra Kai Season 4: Release Date & Renewal Status

In October 2020, Netflix renewed Cobra Kai for the 4th season. On October 23rd, Jon Hurwitz, the Managing Director, tweeted that all Cobra Kai season 4 scripts had been written. On 27th October Hurwitz has revised the Cobra Kai season 4 scripts to launch development in January 2021.

Hurwitz said “I don’t have the answer, but would imagine Season 4 will come out roughly a year after Season 3”, which sets a goal of January 2022 for when Cobra Kai season 4 would be released. The filming of Cobra Kai season 4 will be especially difficult in California due to the sharp increase in COVID-19 incidents, with its ensemble cast and Los Angeles venue. However, various movies and TV shows have filmed under strict safety protocol during the pandemic. Although development in Cobra Kai season 4 could be much slower than before, we can expect they’ll adapt to meet the release date for early 2022.

Cobra Kai Season 4: Production Updates

As noted above, Hurwitz team began writing for Cobra Kai season 4 before the show was even officially renewed by Netflix.  The writing team had completed the scripts 14 after just weeks of writing by the end of October 2020. In preparation for filming, the scripts will be polished further.

Cobra Kai Season 4: Story Details

As Dan and Johnny made peace, the Cobra Kai season 3 finale erupted into even more outrageous acts of aggression as Kreese’s students stormed the LaRusso home and engaged in a destructive brawl. This inspired the direct confrontation between Kreese and Daniel, setting up Cobra Kai season 4 where all three dojos – Kreese’s Cobra Kai, Daniel’s Miyagi-Do, and Johnny’s Eagle Fang – will participate in the All Valley Under 18 Karate Competition, with Kreese pledging he’ll quit if Cobra Kai fails.

With Kreese’s Cobra Kai proving to be an adversary neither Johnny or Daniel would overcome by themselves, the two rivals eventually bring the two competing schools together to battle Kreese. However, can these students and their instructors really work together to vanquish Cobra Kai? It is only one of the ways the show will specifically discuss the problems.
