Solo: A Star Wars Storyis almost ready to blast into theaters. In anticipation of the release of the latestStar Wars Anthologyfilm, Denny’s held a big presentation unveiling their newSolo-themed menu. Here’s a quick look.
The menu isn’t the only big reveal of the day, however. In addition to the indigestion-inducing “Lightspeed Slam”, several newSolocharacters made their debut courtesy of some Denny’s promotional material. Have a look

In addition to characters we already know about, likeThandie Newton’s Val andAlden Ehrenreich’s Han, these trading cards show off a character named Moloch, and my new personal favoriteStar Warscharacter, Therm Scissorpunch. Look, no one has ever accusedStar Warsof having subtle character names, but the nameTherm Scissorpunchbeing given to a character with lobster-claw seems abiton the nose. That said, I sincerely hope Disney and Lucasfilm are working on a Therm Scissorpunch standalone movie as we speak.
Another set of trading cards introduces us to a Mudtrooper, and Argus “Six Eyes” Panox – a character who has, you guessed it, six eyes.
Here’s an even clearer look at the Mudtrooper. I could be wrong, but I’m guessing this character will trek through mud at some point. It’ll be space mud, though, since this is aStar Warsfilm.
Solo Denny’s Commercial
Last but not least, here’s a new Denny’s commercial which recreates the scene where Han wins the Falcon from Lando. Chewie is there, too, just waiting to eat some Blaster Fire Burgers. As the ad points out, “fans will be able to collect trading cards featuring characters from the movie as well as try a new movie-inspired menu. Proceeds from every trading card pack purchase benefit the charity No Kid Hungry.”
Solo: A Star Wars Story, starring Alden Ehrenreich,Woody Harrelson,Emilia Clarke,Donald Glover, Thandie Newton,Phoebe Waller-Bridge,Joonas SuotamoandPaul Bettany, opensMay 25, 2018.
