Xolo Maridueña as Miguel Diaz speaks to someone in emCobra Kai/em.
Summary Cobra Kai star Xolo Maridueña, who plays Miguel Diaz, explains why Miguel isn't the show's version of The Karate Kid. When it first debuted in 2018, it seemed as though Miguel was being positioned as the show's main protagonist. But as it has progressed, although Miguel plays a key role in the story, he has also taken a more supporting role at times and shared the spotlight with other new characters like Robby, Hawk, Samantha, and Tory.
I think the time is maybe what makes them different. I wouldn't necessarily go as far as to say Miguel's the Karate Kid. I think that is something very close to Daniel, and that character. I think it's so nice to see that there are other underdog kids that can rise to the occasion, and for those reasons, I think they're similar.
Miguel gets back together with Samantha, and the two share a kiss during the season 5 finale. As it prepares to return for Cobra Kai season 6, there are a few major unanswered questions related to John Kreese's escape from prison. There's also the confirmation that Cobra Kai season 6 will explore the international Sekai Taikai tournament and Miguel is a natural fit to be a leading contender in the Karate championship.
Even with the centrality of Maridueña's character, the actor is right to point out that Cobra Kai's young cast tends to trade the role of main character. Unlike the Karate Kid movies, which focus on one character, the Netflix show is more of a group effort. With the last fifteen episodes split into three parts, with Part 2 arriving on November 28, there's a natural avenue to let everyone shine.
