    John Stamos isn’t mincing words on UnPrisoned .

    The Fuller House and Big Shot star will recur during Season 2 of the Hulu series as Murphy, “a best-selling author and self-proclaimed ‘family radical healing coach,'” reads the official character description. “Murphy is a half-guru/half-reality star, cut to the chase type therapist who believes in telling people straight up what’s wrong with them.”

    Stamos joins previously announced guest stars Oliver Hudson ( The Cleaning Lady ), Jamie Chung ( The Gifted ) and Brandee Evans ( P-Valley ).

    Starring Kerry Washington and Delroy Lindo, UnPrisoned Season 2 premieres with all eight episodes on Wednesday, July 17.
