Dave Coulier Is Therm Scissorpunch In Solo!

Dave Coulier Voices Therm Scissorpunch In Solo!

Just when you think Therm Scissorpunch couldn’t sound any more awesome, we’ve caught wind that the alien will be voiced by none other than Dave Coulier, the comedian best known as Joey Gladstone from the hit ABC sitcom Full House.

According to our source, Solo director Ron Howard is a huge fan of Coulier’s work, especially his voice acting on the animated series Muppet Babies and The Real Ghostbusters.

“Coulier’s always been a cut up, and when I read what Larry and Jon [Kasdan] had written for Therm Scissorpunch, I knew Dave was our guy. His brand of sharp commentary and kid friendly appeal is second to none. I think fans are really going to be delighted by how much edge Dave brought to the role. We’re really pushing that PG rating. This is no garden variety alien jokester.”

Spoiler alert! Our source also claims Howard insisted on Coulier recording several versions of his most famous bit – the legendary “Cut. It. Out.” The phrase, accompanied by a miming of the action by Coulier, became his calling card on Full House. The joke has recently made its triumphant return on Fuller House, Netflix’s continuation of the series.

Cut. It. Out.

“The irony of it all is I think once everything has been said and done, most of Coulier’s performance will be left on the cutting room floor,” said our spy who worked on the set of Solo. “There’s only so much punny humor you can put in Scissorpunch before you want to punch someone.”

The classic meme is set to return in Solo: A Star Wars Story

While Coulier’s performance in Solo may be shortened, we hear Therm Scissorpunch’s role in Nintendo Snipperclips sequel has actually expanded! Great news for fans of puzzle games and scissors-for-hands aliens.
