Well, it turns out that the major surprise Orville guest star that Seth MacFarlane was talking about was the giant flower known as the Catrudian in Kelly’s room.

Twitter immediately leapt into acton and recognized the voice instantly as Bruce Willis.

Bruce Willis on The Orville

It is clear that the Orville has a ton of fans and when Seth MacFarlane sends out a challenge like this, they are sure to race to meet it. With many characters under heavy prosthetics, it is often hard to recognize anyone.

However, thanks to the fame of someone like Bruce Willis — from Die Hard to this year’s Glass — his voice is impossible to miss.
