Wax on, wax off….

The legends themselves Ralph Macchio and Jackie Chan are reuniting for a new Karate Kid movie set to release December of 2024. Even more exciting, they’re looking for the new Karate Kid to star alongside them — and it could be you!

Sony Pictures is looking for an actor to portray Chinese or mixed race Chinese and between the ages of 15 to 17 years old. Being fluent in English and some Mandarin is a plus, alongside any sort of martial arts, gymnastics, or dance experience. No acting experience is required!

Interested? Email KarateKidCasting@sony.com with a short bio, your name, where you live, and a recent photo — and get ready to head back into the world of The Karate Kid next December.
