It turns out that we have more in common with Ralph Macchio than we think, seeing as neither of us knows much about Sony’s new Karate Kid movie. Sony announced the mysterious project earlier this month, though plot details and casting calls remain in the shadows. Speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Macchio offered insight into his knowledge of Sony’s film, planned for a 2024 release.

“I know no other information,” Macchio confessed to EW. “It’s too early to tell what that story is [with the movie]. This is all, like, happening in real time as you’re asking me this question.”

While Macchio did have prior knowledge about Sony’s new Karate Kid movie before it was officially announced, that’s about as far as it goes. Beyond revealing the project’s June 7, 2024 release, Sony is holding onto more information tighter than Johnny Lawrence to his high school glory days. “I think that [will be figured out] in the near future, or I may have nothing to do with it,” Macchio admits. “We’ll talk when I know what’s going on.”
