Not a Cobra Kai sequel, but Karate Kid: Legends is definitely in the same universe
The beloved 'Karate Kid' universe is expanding with 'Karate Kid: Legends', released recently on 30 May, 2025. The highly anticipated movie brought together two iconic figures for the first time: Ralph Macchio 's Daniel LaRusso, from the original 1984 classic and the recent hit series 'Cobra Kai', and Jackie Chan 's Mr. Han, the kung fu master from the 2010 reboot. A shared universe, not a direct sequel| While fans might expect a continuation of Netflix's 'Cobra Kai', which concluded its six-season run in February 2025, director Jonathan Entwistle has clarified that 'Karate Kid: Legends' is not a direct sequel. Instead, it exists within the same expansive universe, offering a new chapter rather than a direct follow-up. Macchio expressed his enthusiasm for connecting Daniel and Mr. Han, both of whom trained under the mentorship philosophies of Mr. Miyagi, calling it "another ecosystem in the grand universe" of 'The Karate Kid'. New hero, surprise return Set three years after the events of 'Cobra Kai', the film introduces a fresh protagonist: Li Fong, played by American Born Chinese star Ben Wang. Li is depicted as a martial arts student from Beijing who moves to New York City, where he will learn both kung fu from Mr. Han and karate from Daniel LaRusso. Fans can also hold on tight as a significant return awaits. William Zabka reprises his role as Johnny Lawrence in a cameo appearance near the end of the film. Director Entwistle revealed that keeping Zabka's involvement a secret was "very hard," adding to the excitement. Macchio himself lauded Zabka's contribution, stating, "He graces 'Cobra Kai' with a brilliant performance, and he graces us here with a tip of the hat to the legendary Johnny Lawrence.

'The Royals' On Netflix Sparks Royal Rumble Over "Stereotypes, Narratives"
New Delhi: Certain storylines on 'The Royals' on Netflix have sparked a furore among some of India's erstwhile royal families, with one 'queen' commenting that the stereotype of rajas "soaked in whiskey and profligacy" and Ranis "in chiffons and pearls" continues to define them, but their contributions don't get too much attention. Heritage platform Royal Fables, which covers such families, also put out a post "on behalf of 565 princely states" objecting to the way royals are portrayed in the show. The Royal Fables' post itself, however, also saw some backlash, with some on social media accusing it of being tone deaf and embarrassing. 'The Royals', starring Ishaan Khatter and Bhumi Pednekar, portrays a modern-day royal family struggling to maintain its crumbling palace, which is approached by the CEO of a hospitality startup, who proposes turning it into a luxury bed-and-breakfast. Sub-plots include the royal family's dysfunction and the sale of a valuable painting. The Maharani of Baroda, Radhikaraje Gaekwad, put out a post on Instagram in which she highlighted that the erstwhile royals in India are still respected and play a key role in preserving the country's heritage. "One would imagine the royals of India, a community abundantly chronicled, photographed, biographed, and today well positioned in a range of arenas from politics, hospitality, to magazine covers, would have a better chance of surviving an on screen portrayal such as the one in The Royals. Alas, that was not to be and such is our fate, since 1947..." she lamented. "What began as a post-independence, politically motivated propaganda of stereotypical Rajas soaked in whiskey and profligacy and Ranis in chiffons and pearls, continues to define us," she added. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Royal Fables (@royal_fables) Ms Gaekwad pointed out that India is one of the only countries where royals reigned for centuries without "any known instances of revolt or assassination". "India has also seen some of their finest statesmen, diplomats, wildlife conservationists, bureaucrats, army officers, educationists, sportsmen, hoteliers and entrepreneurs emerge from royalty and today our palaces, forts and museums are perhaps the last few sentinels of India's undiluted, apolitical patronage and cultural history, all maintained in our personal capacity. Yet... our own country continues to view us - all 565 families and a few thousand nobility, with an odd mixture of awe, ignorance and distaste," she wrote. Ms Gaekwad also said some of these families engage in charitable work, run some of India's best-known music festivals and museums, and sustain traditions and festivals like the Dussehra of Mysore and the Holi of Jaipur and Udaipur. 'False Narratives' In an open letter to Netflix, Royal Fables said some "false narratives" were created by the show and that the erstwhile royals contribute to Indian culture while keeping their legacy alive, without much help. "First off, royal families are not POOR. They are not selling their palaces or making money from bat poop! They are land owners and inheritors of a rich legacy that they are monetising," it said in the letter, adding, "Agreed, conserving palaces is a tough task. Our back breaks if we have to white wash our flats! They have to restore a 400-year-old, 100 rooms monument without losing the historic essence of the property. And no caring corporate or government helps them in the process (sic)." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Royal Fables (@royal_fables) The post, however, also attracted criticism from social media users, with one sneering, "Privileged offending the privileged is my most favourite genre." "This is amongst the most hilariously embarrassing things I've ever read in my life. Please for your own sakes, delete it and pretend it never happened," another wrote.

Netflix Tudum 2025: Full list of shows, games expected
Netflix is counting on devoted fans of "Stranger Things," "Squid Game" and "Wednesday" to tune in to its streaming service Saturday night. But they won't log in to see new episodes of those most popular shows. Instead, viewers will be greeted with sneak peeks and cast reunions, as part of Tudum, an occasional in-person marketing event for Netflix that the company has turned into a streamed variety show. Think marketing as entertainment. The show, expected to last from 90 to 120 minutes, will emphasize the company's three most popular series, two of which will end this year ("Squid Game" and "Stranger Things") and one that is returning ("Wednesday"). Lady Gaga will be on hand to perform a miniconcert. Her song "Bloody Mary" became a viral sensation when fans paired a version of it with a dance from "Wednesday." Lady Gaga also has a cameo on the show in Season 2. Netflix, which signed a 10-year, $5 billion deal last year for World Wrestling Entertainment's flagship show, "Raw," will bring out some WWE stars such as CM Punk and Rhea Ripley to extol their love for other Netflix content. Ben Affleck and Matt Damon will promote their new film, "The Rip." Cookie Monster will make an appearance as part of Netflix's new deal to stream "Sesame Street." And AJ McLean, a member of the Backstreet Boys, will promote a new reality show, "Building the Band." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Play War Thunder now for free War Thunder Play Now Undo The event illustrates Netflix's growing appetite for streaming live events. In just the past year, the company has lured giant audiences to the fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson, two NFL games on Christmas Day, and a roast of former quarterback Tom Brady. And it has plans to do much more. Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano will get a rematch in July at Madison Square Garden as part of an all-female boxing card, and the NFL will return to the service again on Christmas. Netflix's Brazilian marketing team originated the Tudum event in 2020 after seeing how active Netflix fans were at events such as Brazil Comic-Con. The first iteration pulled in about 50,000 people over four days. Netflix revived the event in 2023, after the COVID-19 pandemic subsided, luring 35,000 to the festival. The event generated more than 78 million views across the company's social channels, including a livestream on YouTube. Live Events The first two Tudum events were held in Sao Paulo in 2020 and in 2023. Thousands of Brazilians waited in line to attend those multiday events. Saturday's event, though, will be held in Los Angeles, at the Kia Forum, starting at 5 p.m. Pacific. The 9,500 tickets, which went on sale May 9 for $25 to $75, sold out in a week. What differentiates those events from Tudum 2025 is that Netflix is now eager to exploit its live capabilities. The company has teamed up with Silent House Productions, its partner on the SAG Awards and the producer of the concert film for Taylor Swift's Eras Tour, to produce the event. Netflix's marketing team under Lee began planning this year's version of Tudum over a year ago, this time working closely with its content team to tailor the event to those in the stands and to those on their couches. FAQs Q1. When is Netflix Tudum 2025 ? A1. Netflix Tudum 2025 is schedule on Saturday, May 31. Q2. When did Netflix Tudum first happen? A2. The first two Tudum events were held in Sao Paulo in 2020 and in 2023.
