With its sixth season, the acclaimed series "Cobra Kai" on Netflix is slowly coming to an end. But that doesn't stop the makers from fantasizing about further spin-offs from the "Karate Kid" universe.

In a conversation with The Hollywood Reporter, creators Hayden Schlossberg, Josh Heald and Jon Hurwitz gave insights into the final episodes of "Cobra Kai" and potential new projects. The character Daniel LaRusso once again plays a key role in the final season as he questions his relationship with his former mentor Mr. Miyagi. The creators are also thinking intensively about a number of further spin-offs to keep the universe alive.

Particularly appealing seems to be the possibility of a "Mr. Miyagi" prequel, which would shed light on the iconic character's background story. Although there are no further details yet, the project seems to be at the top of the makers' bucket list.
