Hot off the success of Longlegs, writer/director Osgood Perkins returns with an
adaptation of Stephen King's 1980 story The Monkey. The film sees Theo James play the dual roles of twin
brothers who discover a toy monkey as children, which seems to spark a
series of deaths. When the monkey re-emerges in their adult lives, so too
does the terror it previously wrought.
The film also stars Tatiana Maslany and Elijah Wood.
The Monkey is in UK/ROI cinemas from February 21st, 2025.
Check out the new trailer and poster below.
The official synopsis reads:
When twin brothers Bill and Hal find their father's old monkey toy in the attic, a series of gruesome deaths start. The siblings decide to throw the toy away and move on with their lives, growing apart over the years.
