Karate Kid: Legends is set to bring together the old and new worlds of the iconic martial arts franchise. Featuring Ralph Macchio’s Daniel LaRusso and Jackie Chan’s Mr Han, the film marks the long-awaited crossover between the original films and the 2010 reboot — with newcomer Ben Wang at the center as Li Fong.

Trained in kung fu but turning to karate after moving to the US and facing bullying, Li’s journey bridges the stylistic gap between both Karate Kid eras. The trailer teases emotional depth, classic training montages, and the unforgettable sight of Chan and Macchio sharing the screen.
Directed by The End of the F**ing World’s Jonathan Entwistle, the film releases on May 30 and promises a heartfelt, action-packed addition to the Miyagi-verse. With nostalgia, fresh faces, and familiar underdog spirit, Legends might just be the ultimate Karate Kid chapter.
