Hold onto your black belts, folks, because the martial arts world just got a seismic shake-up! Sony Pictures has unleashed the official trailer for Karate Kid: Legends, and it’s packed with enough action, heart, and legacy to make even Mr. Miyagi proud.
Set to hit theaters on May 30, 2025, this latest chapter in the Karate Kid saga brings together two icons—Jackie Chan and Ralph Macchio—for an epic showdown of mentorship and jaw-dropping moves that’ll leave you waxing on and off in excitement.
Karate Kid: Legends Trailer Drops with Jackie Chan and Ralph Macchio Teaming Up to Blow Your Mind!
The trailer, which dropped Tuesday morning after a tease at CinemaCon on Monday night, introduces us to Ben Wang as Li Fong, the newest karate prodigy stepping into the spotlight. Under the watchful eyes of Chan’s Mr. Han (returning from the 2010 reboot) and Macchio’s Daniel LaRusso (the OG Karate Kid himself), Li’s journey promises to blend kung fu flair with Miyagi-do mastery.

From a high-octane fight scene tearing through a house to a nostalgic visit to Pat Morita’s legendary studio, the footage screams one thing: this isn’t just a movie—it’s a love letter to martial arts fans everywhere.
Social media is already buzzing, with posts on X calling it “an action-packed bridge between past and present” and fans losing it over Chan’s gray-haired, still-kicking-ass vibe. “Jackie Chan sliding across a kitchen island at 70?
Ralph Macchio still waxing on? TAKE MY MONEY!” one user raved. Meanwhile, the trailer’s nod to intergenerational connection—think Daniel’s wise words, “Remember what you’re fighting for,” and Han’s surprise visit to keep Li sharp—has viewers hooked on the promise of a fresh yet familiar story.
Directed by Jonathan Entwistle and scripted by Rob Lieber, Karate Kid: Legends picks up three years after Cobra Kai’s final season, weaving together the timelines of the ‘80s classic and the 2010 reboot into one epic universe.
The cast, including Joshua Jackson, Sadie Stanley, and Ming-Na Wen, adds extra star power, but it’s the Chan-Macchio-Wang trio that’s stealing the show. “Two branches, one tree,” as Macchio himself posted on X—could this be the ultimate fusion of martial arts legacies?
With CinemaCon attendees raving about extended footage (think Chan recruiting a reluctant LaRusso in California), the hype is real. Will Karate Kid: Legends deliver the ultimate martial arts showdown? Can Li Fong live up to the giants before him? Mark your calendars for May 30, because this trailer’s just the warm-up—and trust us, you won’t want to miss the main event!
