Cobra Kai’s success as a sequel to The Karate Kid has no bars on its success. The credit undeniably goes to its creators, Jon Hurwitz, Hayden Schlossberg, and Josh Heald. In a recent interview with UPI for Hurwitz’s Obliterated series, the creator touched upon the topic of spin-offs.

He said, Hopefully, the characters are rich enough that if there is an opportunity in the future to pick up with them again one day, they’ll still be characters people are hoping to spend time with,”. Initially, the show was created for YouTube until in 2020, Netflix picked the saddle for its 3rd season and on. Hence, given Hurwitz is picking up future projects for Netflix, one can hope that someday it will be the case for Cobra Kai’s spin-off.
