The official REDBAND trailer for The Monkey has made its way to us, and I’m saying this with my whole chest – it’s good! It’s a fun, gory, bloody, killed filled trailer – we rejoice.
Based on the Stephen King short story, and produced by James Wan (The Conjuring, Saw), The Monkey is a new trip from Longlegs writer/director, Osgood Perkins.
When twin brothers find a mysterious wind-up monkey, a series of outrageous deaths tear their family apart. Twenty-five years later, the monkey begins a new killing spree forcing the estranged brothers to confront the cursed toy.
The film stars: the Theo James, Tatiana Maslany, Elijah Wood, Christian Convery, Colin O’Brien, Rohan Campbell and Sarah Levy.
Well done, Osgood, hat tips. Also, I’m going to re-share an exclusive clip he released during the holiday season in case you missed it.
The Monkey is scheduled to be released in theaters on February 21, 2025.
