Universal has unleashed the second trailer for the action thriller Monkey Man [MNKYM] starring Dev Patel [DPATE] in his feature directorial debut as a man on a quest for vengeance against the corrupt leaders who murdered his mother. Monkey Man lands in theaters on April 5th.
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.
