WALTER GRADY

Edan Gross played Walter Grady in both Best of the Best films: first as the young son at the emotional heart of the story, then as an adolescent martial artist.

In Best of the Best, Walter’s bicycle chase and hospital scenes deepen the stakes for his father, Alex Grady. Four years later, Best of the Best II brings Walter back older and training in martial arts himself.

The sequel footage later resurfaced on Cobra Kai when Johnny Lawrence watches Best of the Best II—putting Edan’s Walter briefly back on screen for a new audience.
