Robert Garrison, the actor best known for his role of Tommy in the early instalments of The Karate Kid, has died, aged 59.
Garrison was in hospital and died after a battle with kidney and liver problems.
According to Fox News, a representative for Garrison called the actor "an ambassador to The Karate Kid legacy".
"Rob was a great person and ambassador to The Karate Kid legacy. His performance in Season 2 of Cobra Kai, being his last, was simply amazing and he stole the episode. He will be missed by me and everyone he encountered," read the statement.
"My brother was a fun-loving guy. He enjoyed people and he enjoyed life. He liked to have fun and make people laugh up until the very end. He will definitely be missed," his brother Patrick told TMZ.
