The year 2009 has brought us
our first black president….
our first black Disney princess….
and now our first black karate kid.
Little cutie, Jaden Smith is the next “The Karate Kid“. He may be a bit too young for the part, but his father, Will Smith thought otherwise. Nepotism at its finest, though. The exciting actress,Taraji P. Henson, portrays Jaden Smith’s mother in the film.
Jaden Smith plays the bullied kid role, made famous by Ralph Macchio, and Jackie Chan is the mentor who teaches him to fight.
We all grew up loving the original “Karate Kid” and I’m sure people will be lining up to see the new remake of the movie. It premiers June 11, 2010.
Look at the trailer below:
