Karate Kid: Legends Unites Macchio, Chan, and Wang
Ralph Macchio, now 63, reprises his role as Daniel LaRusso in 'Karate Kid: Legends,' over 40 years after the original film. The movie brings together Macchio and Jackie Chan, merging the classic franchise with the 2010 reboot by connecting the Miyagi and Han families. Ben Wang stars as Li Fong, the new protagonist mentored by both LaRusso and Chan's Mr. Han, representing a symbolic transfer of martial arts wisdom. The film adopts a fast-paced, early Jackie Chan Hong Kong style with humor and advanced martial arts, distinguishing it from the original's romantic tone. Macchio, initially hesitant about the crossover, now feels the film authentically honors the franchise's history and remains open to future projects. The ongoing popularity of the series, amplified by 'Cobra Kai,' highlights the lasting cultural impact of Macchio's role.
