Chennai, April 2

The makers of ‘Karate Kid: Legends’, the latest instalment of one of the most loved franchises ever, ‘Karate Kid’, have now released a trailer that promises a film with loads of action, drama and entertainment.

The film promises to continue the legacy of martial arts mentorship and looks to showcase rivalry in a new era.

Promising more karate and kung fu action, the brand-new trailer honours the legacy of the previous films. It shows Daniel LaRusso and Jackie Chan uniting to train Ben Wang, the new Karate Kid.

This sixth instalment in the long-running martial arts franchise is the first to bring together two of the most iconic characters from the series.

Karate Kid: Legends unites the iconic martial arts masters of one of the most beloved film franchises of all time to tell a completely new story full of action and heart.

When kung fu prodigy Li Fong (Ben Wang) relocates to New York City with his mother to attend a prestigious new school, he finds solace in a new friendship with a classmate and her father.

However, his newfound peace is short-lived after he attracts unwanted attention from a formidable local karate champion. Driven by a desire to defend himself, Li embarks on a journey to enter the ultimate karate competition.

Guided by the wisdom of his kung fu teacher, Mr. Han (Jackie Chan), and the legendary Karate Kid, Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio), Li merges their unique styles to prepare for an epic martial arts showdown.

Directed by Jonathan Entwistle, Karate Kid: Legends stars Jackie Chan and Ralph Macchio along with Ben Wang, Joshua Jackson, Sadie Stanley, and Ming-Na Wen.

Sony Pictures Entertainment India will exclusively release Karate Kid: Legends in Indian cinemas on May 30, 2025, in English, Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu.

Can't wait for this! Jackie Chan and Ralph Macchio together is a dream combo 🤩 The trailer gave me goosebumps - looks like they're honoring the original while bringing something fresh.

I'm cautiously optimistic. The Karate Kid reboots haven't always worked, but having both mentors together could be special. Hope they don't overdo the CGI fights though - the charm was always in practical stunts.

Saw the trailer 3 times already! The training sequences look insane. Jackie Chan still moves like he's 30. May 30 can't come soon enough!

Interesting they're calling it "Legends" - makes me think this might be the final chapter wrapping up both characters' stories. Hope they give proper closure to both Mr. Han and Daniel's arcs.

The new kid (Ben Wang) has big shoes to fill after Jaden Smith. But from the trailer, his martial arts skills look legit. Wonder if they'll reference Dre from the 2010 version?

I appreciate that they're releasing in multiple Indian languages. Makes it more accessible for family audiences who grew up watching the older films. Taking my dad for sure!
