Cobra Kai Season 3 won’t face a delay.

While 2020 may feel like the year that stood still, there are certain productions that managed to avoid the pandemic. A show like The Mandalorian is evidence of this. In the midst of the outbreak, it was in post-production, so they were able to finish everything up remotely. But it’s not the only show that narrowly escaped a delay.

The fan-favorite Karate Kid follow-up Cobra Kai apparently also was filmed in that magic window just prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. Because of that, you won’t have to worry about the third season being delayed. Here’s what series co-creator and executive producer had to say about it.

“Thankfully with Season 3, we wrapped production before the end of 2019 and we wrapped post-production…I think there was a little bit of overlap,” he said to CBR. “We were still doing some finishing touches for the effects and some quality checks on Season 3 while the quarantine aspect of the pandemic was just beginning but we finished our final mix — the last big piece of post-production — that was done in-person with raising champagne and eating cupcakes and all the things you do to feel like you’re at your absolute unhealthiest coming out of the completion of a season. [Laughs] So there were no major delays in terms of COVID.”

It’s been a LONG time since Cobra Kai Season 2 has hit — 16 months in fact. Given the smaller scale of the show, that’s somewhat surprising, but it makes sense since it was dropped by YouTube Premium. Since then, Netflix has picked it up, and it looks like that extra time was an attempt for them to make sure a wider audience could enjoy the show before jumping into Season 3. As of this writing, the first two seasons will hit on August 28.
