Good news for the fans eagerly awaiting the fifth season of Cobra Kai because filming has already wrapped. It won’t be that long for the brand new episodes to hit our screens.
As per Netflix’s popularity poll for television series, Cobra Kai has managed to become one of the most successful series on the streaming giant platform which is comparable to other shows like Lucifer and Money Heist to name a few. The series has had a huge fandom from across the globe since the time it first aired on YouTube Red as an original series, but later the series was picked up by Netflix which then attracted new viewers and soared the popularity even more.
Filming for the fifth season commenced on September 20, 2021, and was completed by December 19, 2021.
Here’s what we know about the upcoming season of Cobra Kai’s release date, cast, and more.

Cobra Kai Season 5 Plot: Expectations
Nothing much is revealed when it comes to the plotline of the fifth season. However, executive producer Josh Heald did reveal to TVLINE that Chozen’s return in the forthcoming season will play a huge role
“We obviously know that Chozen’s coming back into the fold, and Daniel, who we find at the ultimate depth of his loss, is feeling defeated and feeling like he made a deal with the devil. He’s realizing that to allow Miyagi-Do to be extinguished this way doesn’t sit well. There are times where the fight has to change, and what better moment than for Chozen to come back into this story and to lean into that part of Miyagi-Do. Chozen is somebody who ties into the more aggressive past where fighting wasn’t about a contest, it was about life and death. He still feels like he owes Daniel some help, and he wants to make amends even though Daniel has forgiven him. From that alone, I feel like audiences can infer the energy with which Season 5 is going to begin. There are quite a bit of storylines that start spinning very fast and very aggressively as we enter next season.”
