Sony/Columbia has hired Zak Penn (“The Incredible Hulk”) to rewrite the script for the studio’s untitled sequel to the 2010 hit The Karate Kid. Penn will be reworking a script from Ethan Reiff and Cyrus Voris who were hired shortly after The Karate Kid opened last June. The film would go on to gross more than $359 million.
Original stars Jaden Smith and Jackie Chan are expected to reprise their respective roles in the sequel.
