After weeks of teases, YouTube Red finally delivers an official full trailer for the Karate Kid follow-up Cobra Kai. The series brings original stars Ralph Macchio and William Zabka back to play Daniel LaRusso and Johnny Lawrence, 34 years after the All Valley Karate Tournament ended with a fateful crane kick to the latter’s nose. This time, though, the story revolves mostly around Johnny and his attempts to get back on his feet after one humiliating loss sent him down an unfortunate path.

As the title suggests, Johnny’s efforts see him resurrecting the Cobra Kai dojo and the ethos of “Strike First. Strike Hard. No Mercy.” Of course, none of that sits too well with Daniel, who fared much better in the intervening years after having parlayed his victory into financial success. So when Johnny takes Miguel Diaz (Xolo Maridueñ), a bullied teenager under his wing, it becomes the spark that reignites the heated rivalry between the two, kicking off the next phase in one of the most popular and enduring franchises from the ‘80s.

The new trailer accurately puts the focus on Johnny’s continued rivalry with Daniel and how, even in their middle-age, the two can’t (or don’t want to) let bygones be bygones. Some of that has to do with the disparity in their present-day lives, were Johnny’s waking up on his floor and Daniel’s running his own auto dealership. But as Johnny begins training a new generation of put-upon and bullied high schoolers, there’s a sense that he’s finding a new purpose in life.

The trailer does a better job than most of the teasers in establishing the tone of the series, which isn’t nearly as winking or satirical as some may have expected. The fact that the series is appearing on the as-yet unproven platform of YouTube Red might have something to do with the misconception of the direction Cobra Kai was headed and whether or not it was meant as a straightforward series or to be viewed with a hint of irony. It would appear that although the series definitely has a welcome send of humor, there’s deep affection for the Karate Kid franchise and its characters.

The new trailer also confirms the premiere date for the series, which will drop the first week of May. Season 1 will consist of 10 episodes, making this yet another new series and new streaming platform competing for your eyeballs and subscription dollars. Is the promise of the continuation of the Karate Kid saga enough to get people signing up for YouTube Red, and will Cobra Kai be for this service as, say, House of Cards was for Netflix? We only have a few weeks to wait to find out.

Cobra Kai premieres Wednesday, May 2 on YouTube Red.
