Dev Patel frowns at something while in a crowd in Monkey Man
Dev Patel’s Monkey Man premiered earlier this year and was a huge success, drawing comparison’s to Keanu Reeves’ legendary action franchise, John Wick, while also earning more than 3x its reported budget. While Monkey Man closed its theatrical run grossing $35 million worldwide while costing only $10 million to make, recent developments revealed that the film we got was almost much different than the final product.
Considering the final product was such a hit — the film earned scores of 89% from critics and 83% from general audiences on the aggregate site Rotten Tomatoes — it’s disheartening to hear that a studio was trying to interfere with Patel’s vision so much so that it would have delivered a radically different final product, one that Patel was clearly not happy with.
✕ Remove Ads Monkey Man was written and directed by Dev Patel, who also stars in the film. Stay tuned to Collider for future news on the film and watch Monkey Man on Prime Video.
