Britt Baker landed a role in the latest season of Cobra Kai and recently shared how she was cast in the show. In season six, part two of the Netflix series, Baker portrays a coach at the Tiger Strike Dojo. In an interview with US Magazine, she revealed that her casting came about after meeting writer Hayden Schlossberg, which ultimately led to her role on the show.
Britt Baker said:
“I met one of the writers, Hayden, and I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, I’m Britt,’ he recognized me from social media. I kind of joked, but not joking, ‘If you ever need anything, I’m a huge fan and would love to be involved.’”
“Eventually he called me and said, ‘You really have the Cobra Kai never say die attitude. If you’re interested, we have a role for you in mind and this is what it is.’”
“I have to be honest, I haven’t even watched it yet. I want to wait for all of it to come out so I can watch it all!”
The final part of season six, which will serve as the series conclusion, is set to arrive on Netflix on February 13, 2025.
