The Karate Kid part IV set to be out in 2010.?

Question

Will this movie be a success knowing that Pat Morita/Mr Miyagi is no longer involved ?

Ralph Macchio who plays the role of Daniel Larusso will be making his return to the silverscreen when he brings back the final installment of :"The Karate Kid part 4 "

"The Next Karate Kid" was just a spin-off of the karate kid trilogy.

Answer 1

Haven't heard about this, but it sounds great. In my opinion, Karate Kid is one of the BEST and most accurate portrayals of what martial arts are all about. It's a hokey flick, yeah, but the principles it portrays are true to form. I'll see the new one.

Answer 2

no mijagy no movie.

the guy carried those movies by himself.

Answer 3

Will Smith is supposedly working on it. It's supposed to be a remake rather than a continuation story.

Answer 4

If this movie is going to be made, I'd thinksome news channels would be talking about this by now. I haven't heard anything about a new Karate Kid sequal.

Answer 5

Macchio playing the mentor? Somehow, I can't really picture that in my head. Judging from his performance in the first 3 films, Ralph couldn't throw a decent technique even if his life depended on it. Heck, Billy Zabka who played Johhny or even Yuji Okomoto who played Chozen in the sequel would probably do a better job of playing the mentor. Too bad Danny Kamekona is gone too. Maybe Martin Kove could reprise his role and play a reformed bad guy, that might work : P  Besides, isn't there a traditional Karate kata that supposedly was meant for groundfighting? Maybe they could update the material to make it fresh for today's MMA starved audiences : )

Answer 6

on IMDB, there is "unnamed karate kid remake" slated for 09, but there is nothing on it, and IMDB...has all the current info.

fail

Answer 7

I'm calling Shenanigans on this one.

Edit: I'll believe it when I see the trailer.
