Dev Patel’s critically acclaimed new thriller MONKEY MAN releases in North American theaters before it opens in India and the actor/director/writer/producer has debuted a new behind-the-scenes video taking fans back to the set of the film. Winner of the SXSW Headliner Audience Award, MONKEY MAN hits theaters in US/Canada next week on April 5 and tickets are available right now including for the premium Dolby Cinema format.
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. Monkey Man stars Dev Patel, Sharlto Copley, Pitobash, Vipin Sharma, Sikandar Kher, Adithi Kalkunte, Sobhita Dhulipala, Ashwini Kalsekar, Makarand Deshpande, Jatin Malik and Zakir Hussain
