Marvel’s Hit-Monkey: Details
So what exactly is Marvel’s Hit-Monkey about? Well, this 10-episode adult animated series created by Will Speck and Josh Gordon is the story of a monkey. Specifically: a Japanese macaque. Only, this macaque wants bloody vengeance for the murder of his entire troop, and he’s got the ghost of a famed assassin to help him do it. The official synopsis from Hulu gives us a bit more details:
“After a Japanese snow monkey’s tribe is slaughtered, he joins forces with the ghost of an American assassin and together, they begin killing their way through the Yakuza underworld.”
Hulu also has a case for us for Marvel’s Hit-Monkey. Apparently, the series will star George Takei, Jason Sudeikis, Olivia Munn, Ally Maki, Nobi Nakanishi, and Fred Tatasciore. Unfortunately, they don’t tell us who plays who here. We’ll just have to find out when this series airs on Hulu.
Conclusion
Hulu is officially announcing Marvel‘s Hit-Monkey with an official trailer. We also get bits of story and cast from Hulu, but the most important bit is the release date. We’ll see this modern monkey assassin and his ghostly partner in action on November 17, 2021.
