Short description

Li Fong is a talented kung fu practitioner who moves from Beijing to New York City with his mother following a family tragedy. While attempting to adjust to his new environment and classmates, he finds himself drawn into a conflict that leads him to enter a karate tournament to help a friend. To prepare for the competition, Li's instructor, Mr. Han, seeks the guidance of Daniel LaRusso. By combining their different martial arts disciplines, Li develops a hybrid fighting style for a final showdown.

Directed by Jonathan Entwistle and written by Rob Lieber, this action drama stars Ben Wang as Li Fong, alongside Jackie Chan as Mr. Han. The cast also includes Joshua Jackson, Sadie Stanley, Ming-Na Wen, and Wyatt Oleff. Produced by Columbia Pictures, TSG Entertainment, and Sunswept Entertainment, the film had a budget of 45 million USD and earned 117 million USD at the worldwide box office.

The film has received a moderate reception from viewers, holding a 6.3 rating on IMDb based on 46,000 votes and a 7 rating on TMDB from 1,291 votes. These audience scores are generally higher than the rating provided by film critics, which stands at 5.6 based on 198 reviews.

What's left behind the scenes

  • The film's events take place after those depicted in the series "Cobra Kai", which is why the original release date was postponed by 5 months to allow the final season of the series to conclude. The plot is set 3 years after the events of the last season of the series and before the film.
  • Han Wenwen, who played Mei Ying in Harold Zwart's sports drama "The Karate Kid" (2010), considered reprising the role under Jonathan Entwistle (mentioning it in an interview at one point), but this did not happen.
