Ralph Macchio has signed with Gersh for representation ahead of next month's release of 'Karate Kid: Legends.'

Macchio is of course best known for his leading role of Daniel LaRusso in the Karate Kid franchise, which he’s now played in four feature films and one hit TV series. Macchio reprised the part across another two films spanning the rest of the 1980s, amd then put it aside until 2018, when he came on to lead Cobra Kai, a series from Sony Pictures Television that began its life on YouTube before finding critical acclaim and a large following on Netflix, garnering nominations at the Emmys, the SAG Awards, and elsewhere. Slated for release via Sony on May 30, new film Karate Kid: Legends sees LaRusso mentoring a young kung fu prodigy Li Fong (Ben Wang), transplanted from Beijing to New York, alongside Mr. Han (Jackie Chan).
