Cobra Kai Creator Teases Return Of Hillary Swank's Julie Pierce

screenrant.com:

Cobra Kai co-creator Hayden Schlossberg teases the possible return of Hilary Swank’s Julie Piece from The Next Karate Kid (1994) in upcoming seasons of the popular show. Written and executive produced by Schlossberg, Jon Hurwitz, and Josh Heald, theKarate Kid sequel series follows William Zabka’s Johnny Lawrence three decades after his defeat at the foot of Ralph Macchio’s Daniel LaRusso at the All-Valley Karate Tournament. In addition to Zabka and Macchio, the cast includes Courtney Henggeler, Xolo Maridueña, Tanner Buchanan, Mary Mouser, Jacob Bertrand, Gianni DeCenzo, and Peyton List.

Cobra Kai ran its first two seasons on YouTube before making the move to Netflix for seasons 3 and 4, which only increased its viewership and acclaim. The series has become a hit thanks to its impressive choreography, humor, nostalgia, and likable characters—many of whom are portrayed by past Karate Kid actors reprising their old roles. This list includes original Cobra Kai sensei John Kreese (Martin Kove), Daniel’s mother Lucille (Randee Heller), Ali Mills (Elizabeth Shue), Kumiko (Tamlyn Tomita), and Chozen Toguchi (Yuji Okumoto). On top of that, season 4 saw the return of Thomas Ian Griffith’s The Karate Kid Part III character, Terry Silver. It seems like there are only a couple of past Karate Kid characters who have yet to make a return and Swank’s Pierce is one of them.
