I loved the Karate Kid movies; I can’t believe that the first movie was way back in 1984, that makes me feel old. Well it looks as though there could be a Karate Kid remake, and the son of Will Smith Jaden Smith is all set to star in the movie.
The rumors have been circulating since September, but Variety has confirmed that the 10-years is all set to star as the next Karate Kid. The new movie will be produced by Smith’s Overbrook Entertainment, as well as Jerry Weintraub, who launched the first movies.
Karate Kid the remake will start shooting in Beijing, China, next year, as well as a host of other countries. It is thought that the plot will be similar to the original movie. It is not known who will play Jaden’s eccentric mentor.
