Biography

Lucille LaRusso is the supportive yet traditional mother of Daniel LaRusso. Lucille was a main character in the original Karate Kid trilogy and later appeared in small roles in the Cobra Kai series. In all of the character's appearances, she was portrayed by Randee Heller. Originally living in New Jersey, Lucille became a widow after her husband died. In 1984, after Lucille got a new job in California, she moved cross-country and settled in Reseda, bringing her son, Daniel LaRusso with her. Despite her optimism over the move, Daniel was constantly bullied by Johnny Lawrence and his band of Cobra Kais. Although Lucille tried to help, she often found herself inadvertently embarrassing Daniel more, but Daniel eventually managed to defeat Johnny at the All Valley Karate Tournament, much to Lucille's joy.
