From 'The Karate Kid Part III' to 'Cobra Kai' season 4: Thomas Ian Griffith on Terry Silver

[@domarq]

Charles is a good interviewer. Obviously he’s a fan of Thomas and researched, extensively. The questions weren’t bland, stock questions…..a clueless person reads from a card. Nor was Charles behaving as an over-zealous “fan”, with nothing creative to offer. This was concise and relevant. Great interview!! 👍🏾

[@zjdarrah]

Thomas was also had great answers that elaborated wonderfully.

[@Steveman27]

How do you think someone is supposed to try to not act like an overzealous fan if they're a major fan of them? If they're a major fan of them, then surely they'd have to act like that with them to some degree, don't you think?

His portrayal of Terry Silver is exactly as he portrayed him 35 years ago. A very underrated actor. His performance is brilliant

At first I thought he wasn't doing a great job reprising the role. I didn't see the Terry Silver of KK3. But then came the fight with "pretty boy" Johnny, and WOOO!!!!

Not exactly… a lot better!!!

[@godzillasimpson8357]

You gotta remember terry wasn’t using drugs in season 4 like he was in karate kid 3 so of course he was gonna be somewhat different. That’s probably why Thomas didn’t make terry look like a lunatic in season 4. He made him look calm and evil

This has been a dream come true to get Thomas Ian Griffith back into the Miyagi-verse! Most fans don’t like to admit that Terry Silver is the whole reason that the Karate Kid 3 even worked. I’m glad Jon, Josh and Hayden were able to convince him to come back.

[@chloeeng6811]

I never known terry silver was a billionaire

[@Mrbeckwith1906]

Millionaire or Billionaire, we learned from Karate Kid 3 that he’s very wealthy. Based on one of the Season 4 clips where Kreese visits him he is still doing pretty well in life.

[@JDA2185]

" Most fans don’t like to admit that Terry Silver is the whole reason that the Karate Kid 3 even worked" Some people have a hard time acknowledging hard clear facts LOL. Terry Silver will also be the reason the 4th season will be the best of the series. And I'm gonna say something else too. Terry Silver is what he is because of the actor who played him, Thomas Ian Griffith. If any other actor had played him, he would not be what he is. Thomas Ian Griffith made that character.

[@nissy9220]

Unfortunately a lot of people particularly the younger generation watching cobra Kai haven’t seen the movies in full. Each to their own but I think it’s a bad move.

I personally thought the character of Terry Silver should have had black hair in Cobra Kai, just like he did in Karate Kid 3. John Kreese had his hair dyed to the same color as the Karate Kid movies, so did Daniel LaRusso, and Johnny Lawrence. So why not Terry Silver.

[@unstoppableExodia]

He absolutely knocked it out of the park in season 4. His character was well written which gave him a lot to work with. They managed to take the over the top cartoon villain from Karate Kid III and flesh it out into a more three dimensional character and even explain why he was like that back then in a way that was believable. The best part was that when they had him slide back into his character at his worst it made sense, we got to see how Kreese brought that out of him. But also we get to see that even without the cocaine abuse he can still be like that, the coke just made him go completely over the top but with a clearer mind he’s more calculating and more dangerous than before.

[@JSmoothSoul]

did part 3 show him doing coke? i never noticed

[@unstoppableExodia]

@@JSmoothSoul no it was never explicitly shown in part three

[@JSmoothSoul]

@@unstoppableExodia where is this coming from then? i'm hearing this over and over

[@unstoppableExodia]

@@JSmoothSoul it boils down to him behaving a lot like a typical 80s coke fiend villain in part three and then it got made canon when he said he was hopped up on cocaine at that time in season 4.

So I got my dad into Cobra Kai back when it came out. For Season 4 he had not seen Karate Kid 3 yet so we watched it before the season 4 premiere. Me and him we smiling like children everytime Terry was on screen for season 4. Cobra Kai added a lot of depth to an already great villian.

@Paul for one it’s over 30 years it’s called growth lol plus he’s old as hell now. But he’s conflicted the whole season about who he is who he was and who he wants to be. He even has a line that explains why he’s not the same as kk3 “I was so hopped up on cocaine and revenge” the man saw clarity it’s as simple as that. I think it was great especially come the end when you realise as the person who originally started the thread he hasn’t lost a step.

[@MidnightBlackandVictoria]

He was fun as a one dimensional nutcase back in the day, but now he seems to have honed his craft, and steals every scene he is in just about. Remarkable person.

[@soakedbearrd]

Imo he wasn’t one dimensional in kk3, I hear a lot of people say that but I don’t agree. Was he over the top at times, sure. But they kinda addressed with with his backstory of being coked up at the time. Terry was the sole reason kk3 was good. You really believed he was a good guy trying to help Daniel even though as the audience we knew behind the scenes it was a plot. His portrayal of being Daniels friend while scheming to destroy him was definitely believable, to me kreese in KK1 was one dimensional. Both actors now in CK have more material to work with and have expanded on the characters for sure. That’s what’s great about CK, all the old characters now have had 30+ years of experience and the script is fantastic, you get to see more of the nuances, faults and strengths of characters like Daniel, Johnny, kreese, silver, chozen (short appearance but you saw his growth). It’s great to see.

[@MidnightBlackandVictoria]

@@soakedbearrd Well said. Although I think they wrote that in BECAUSE his acting skills are dramatically better now. He was incredible and multi-faceted in this one.

[@MrJedijunkie]

I was excited to see Thomas Ian Griffith back. I saw a difference in the character, I saw in my opinion that he actually had been manipulated by Kreese and I can now see that it was not Silver always coming to help Kreese willingly but by guilt, Kreese had been pulling the strings the whole time I think and the issues that Terry Silver had and gone to therapy for I think did some emotional damage to him and with this season I think Kreese has really pushed Silver's over the edge this time. I do wonder though, there is a scene where Terry Silver's apologized to Daniel for everything that happened, was that apology a genuine apology deep down? I do think he did suffer some guilt from his actions from previous events.

[@christofferjenzen78]

Oh,he clearly felt awful about his behaviour,he meant it. He betrayed Kreese cause kreese would never see him as an equal and would never let him live without guilt. Terry saw that Kreese doesnt really live by No mercy and refused to follow a false god.

[@soakedbearrd]

I think it was a sincere apology. He hasn’t reverted back to old Terry yet. Honestly the beer moment where kreese pulled the guilt card I think is what truly reverted him back, but this time he got rid of his weakness.
