* ''Series/CobraKai'' comes out in 2018, 34 years after the first ''Film/{{The Karate Kid|1984}}'' movie (1984). While there were sequels to the original film, as well as a reboot, the show specifically focuses on the rivalry between Daniel and Johnny 34 years after the tournament. Even taking the intervening films into account, it still applies as it comes 8 years after the [[Film/TheKarateKid2010 reboot]] (2010), 24 years after the last original continuity film ''Film/TheNextKarateKid'' (1994) and 29 years since the last appearance of Daniel and the Cobra Kai storyline in ''Film/TheKarateKidPartIII'' (1989), which itself saw a sequel gap of 5 years until the next installment.

* An odd example involving a ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings'' prequel taking place in an AlternativeContinuity. In the late '90, Creator/NewLineCinema acquired their rights to adapt ''The Lord of the Rings'' and ''Literature/TheHobbit'', with the books being adapted in two trilogies, the first airing in the early 2000, and the other one a decade later. Tolkien Estate was not happy with Jackson's adaptations, and would take them around 2 decades to allow another adaptation of Middle-Earth to be created. In 2017, Amazon acquired the rights to adapt the Second Age, which led to the creation of ''Series/TheLordOfTheRingsTheRingsOfPower'' (with New Line Cinema being again involved), which aired a decade later after the Hobbit trilogy.
