Trailer For 'The Karate Kid'

 

The first trailer has arrived for the upcoming Will Smith-produced remake of the 1980s cult classic, 'The Karate Kid'. Directed by Harald Zwart ('Agent Cody Banks'), the film relocates the action to China and stars Smith's son Jaden as the titular "kid" and Jackie Chan as the Mister Miyagi character.

Synopsis

12-year-old Dre Parker could’ve been the most popular kid in Detroit, but his mother’s latest career move has landed him in China. Dre immediately falls for his classmate Mei Ying – and the feeling is mutual – but cultural differences make such a friendship impossible. Even worse, Dre’s feelings make an enemy of the class bully, and kung fu prodigy, Cheng. With no friends in a strange land, Dre has nowhere to turn but maintenance man Mr. Han, who is secretly a master of kung fu. As Han teaches Dre that kung fu is not about punches and parries, but maturity and calm, Dre realizes that facing down the bullies will be the fight of his life.

'The Karate Kid' is due for release in the US on June 11th, 2010.
