They took everything from him. He will get his revenge.
#MonkeyManMovie Only in Theaters April 5

---

Oscar® nominee Dev Patel (Lion, Slumdog Millionaire) achieves an astonishing, tour-de-force feature directing debut with an action thriller about one man’s quest for vengeance against the corrupt leaders who murdered his mother and continue to systemically victimize the poor and powerless.

Inspired by the legend of Hanuman, an icon embodying strength and courage, Monkey Man stars Patel as Kid, an anonymous young man who ekes out a meager living in an underground fight club where, night after night, wearing a gorilla mask, he is beaten bloody by more popular fighters for cash.

After years of suppressed rage, Kid discovers a way to infiltrate the enclave of the city’s sinister elite. As his childhood trauma boils over, his mysteriously scarred hands unleash an explosive campaign of retribution to settle the score with the men who took everything from him.

Packed with thrilling and spectacular fight and chase scenes, Monkey Man is directed by Dev Patel from his original story and his screenplay with Paul Angunawela and John Collee (Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World).

The film’s international cast includes Sharlto Copley (District 9), Sobhita Dhulipala (Made in Heaven), Pitobash (Million Dollar Arm), Vipin Sharma (Hotel Mumbai), Ashwini Kalsekar (Ek Tha Hero), Adithi Kalkunte (Hotel Mumbai), Sikandar Kher (Aarya) and Makarand Deshpande (RRR).

Monkey Man is produced by Dev Patel, Jomon Thomas (Hotel Mumbai, The Man Who Knew Infinity), Oscar® winner Jordan Peele (Nope, Get Out), Win Rosenfeld (Candyman, Hunters series), Ian Cooper (Nope, Us), Basil Iwanyk (John Wick franchise, Sicario films), Erica Lee (John Wick franchise, Silent Night), Christine Haebler (Shut In, Bones of Crows) and Anjay Nagpal (executive producer of Bombshell, Greyhound).

Serving as executive producers are Jonathan Fuhrman, Natalya Pavchinskya, Aaron L. Gilbert, Andria Spring, Alison-Jane Roney and Steven Thibault.

Universal Pictures presents a Bron Studios production, a Thunder Road film, a Monkeypaw production, a Minor Realm/S’Ya Concept production, in association with WME Independent and Creative Wealth Media.

So instead of waiting for Hollywood to cast him, he went straight to boss mode and decided to make his own action movie. What an amazing talent Patel has, I hope Monkey Man pushed his recognition even more

1:23 that destructive text animation with entry is so good 🔥🔥

[carlosmuller]

John Wick, Caine, Mr Nobody, Monkey Man, Riley North, Catayela Restrepo, Mizu and The Bride could all team up to fight all greed and evil governments

I sincerely hope to see more movies from Dev Patel!

[Erasureeraser]

Jordan Peele is the true hero for this movie's production. From what it supposed to be a Netflix movie to getting a theatrical release as Peele was so impressed by Dev Patel's movie showcase how much care he has for other artists. Good job for Peele 🤗

[DOOMStudios]

This being Dev Patel’s directional debut is just amazing.

So glad that Jordan Peele took this away from Netflix just to put it on the big screen.


April 5th can’t come soon enough.

This looks brilliant.

[zacharyjohnson]

Dev is one of the most highly underrated actors. I can’t wait to see this. Definitely seeing this in a theater.

[zippyfinleyadventures]

Just walked out of the theatre after seeing this film. It's brutal, brilliant, visceral and unforgiving. Not since Old Boy has something been this sublime and this film is better

[nitinpotineni]

1:57 that chest pound gave me goosebumps.

[nilanjanchakraborty]

From "Do you remember me?" to "Do you remember me now?".. From getting punched to punching the antagonist. I can feel that the thoughts gone into making this movie are deep and meaningful. Looking forward to watch this movie.

[honestcomments]

People forget how difficult it is to make this type of film is for first time director on a very low budget AND while Pandemic was at its peak.

[turntcrit]

dev patel is one of my favorite actors, bro kills every role he plays

[JamitMan]

Stop saying it's another John Wick. Dev Patel has mentioned he loves Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Jet Li, Sammo Hung and he truly loves Korean Cinema. He probably loves The Man From Nowhere more than John Wick.

[BuRnOuT_GuRu]

1:01 OMG the legend Zakir Husain on the tabla is just perfect.

[gagan]

That line. "You have to extinguish him, before that nobody becomes a somebody" Literal goosebumps!

[THELarvious]

The cinematography and directing of this film looks absolutely beautiful! Dev Patel has some such a long way. This is gonna be off the charts in terms of fun/entertainment!!!

[someoneout-there]

One of the best and most effective movie trailers I've ever seen. The song, the pacing, all of it, perfect. Must see this.

[soumyaranjansamal]

The main reason people unconsciously comparing this to john wick not because of suit or action scenes it's because of colour grading, cinematography and obviously that 1 vs world subject, it seems similar.

[SheldonAdama]

My favorite part was when the dude told the villain “stop monkeying around”. The theater went into a standing ovation for an hour after that. Truly the film moment of all time.
