Monkey Man | Jordan Peele On Monkey Man

#MonkeyManMovie is a gritty cinematic journey that blew Jordan Peele’s mind.
Only in theaters April 5. Get tickets now: www.monkeyman.movie/tickets/
---------
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.

Now this is allyship. Dev Patel should've and still could be a BIG movie STAR! Big ups to Peele for getting this over the finishline.

[@TheSecondHokage]

I'm pretty sure he's going up from here. He was already on the radar and he's been away for a few years making this. This will be the movie that brings him to the spotlight.

Thank you to Jordan for saving this movie from going straight to streaming!!!

Believe the hype this movie is fucking awesome. Full stop. Pulls you in, doesn't let go, then goes deeper, and then rips you to shreds.

[@gilly_axolotl]

I second this

[@ajithansivakumaran3630]

Just got out of the theatre and this film is amazing. Jordan Peele sold me on his reactions alone 🤣. Hollywood is going to have a lot of trouble explaining budgets once you compare their films to Monkey Man and Godzilla Minus One.

[@maestro8766]

Just having watched it over the weekend, this movie blows my mind. It is so true to its core. The India and Indian context shown here is done better than the Bollywood movies. I am well aware of the fact that the majority of the shooting has happened outside India due to Covid. This was a different beast all together. FYI, if you can't handle shaky cam, sit towards the back of the theatre.

[@rustonh316]

If I wasn’t already sold on this movie, Jordan definitely sold me on it!!

[@il4651]

You know it’s a good video when it shows up as an ad and you don’t want to skip it. I sought this video out so I could leave a comment. Definitely seeing this movie in theatres - Jordan Peele just sold me on it.

[@Keepithalal]

It’s basically Slumdog meets John Wick - and it looks awesome. Here for this 👌🏻

[@OkieTradez]

didnt think i could be more excited but to see Jordans excitement just sealed it for me.. HAVE to see this in theatres

[@goma3]

Nothing stirs like a proper revenge movie. I honestly hope Patel brings the visceral acting style he is known for into this

[@nikhilkapoor428]

I just got out of the theater for this movie. It’s so worth it it’s not even funny.

[@Freeden]

Excited for this one, especially with the positive coverage of it coming out of SXSW. On a similar note, why hasn't Peele done a full blown action film like this? I know they did Keanu, but I would love to see something really visceral like this and other John Wick-esque movies.

[@gamerkingfmc863]

Horror is Peels's go to movies because he loves the genre, but I like the fact he giving films like this that isn't horror a theatrical release because that means he's willing to diversity genres to give Non horror films a chance at Monkeypaw productions to be released theatrically.

[@Freeden]

@@gamerkingfmc863 He loves action too. Keanu was an action movie and Key and Peele is full of stuff that shows his love for action.

[@gamerkingfmc863]

@@Freeden True, even though Keanu is more of a comedy action movie, but he left that Key and Peele Era of his career and now is a filmmaker and a producer now, so if he wants to do action, he can do it if he wants to because he's a producer and a filmmaker and make it but if he doesn't want to make an action movie, he doesn't make one.
