Martin Kove Apologizes After Biting Costar Amid Bill Hader's Past Claims

Martin Kove, star of 'Cobra Kai,' recently faced allegations for biting co-star Alicia Hannah-Kim at a fan convention, an incident for which he apologized, admitting his actions went beyond a joke. In the wake of this controversy, actor-comedian Bill Hader's 2013 recounting of a strange and difficult encounter with Kove has resurfaced. Hader recalled driving Kove to a film set early in his career, where Kove intentionally gave him wrong directions causing them to arrive late and get scolded by their boss. On the return trip, Kove offered to buy Hader a cookie and milkshake but then ate them himself in front of Hader, which Hader described as a confusing and dismissive gesture. Despite this behavior, Hader expressed some sympathy, noting he had heard Kove was going through personal difficulties at the time. The resurfaced stories paint a picture of Kove as a challenging personality, adding context to the recent biting incident.
