Theo James Is A Bloody Mess In The Trailer For Horror Film ‘The Monkey’

Buy Me A Coffee

The trailer for The Monkey has dropped online, and oh boy, it’s bloodier than a BBQ gone wrong at a vampire family reunion. If you were thinking, “I’ve seen it all in horror,” buckle up, because this one’s about a toy monkey. Yes, you heard that right—a toy monkey… but not the kind that claps cute little cymbals. This thing ruins lives.

Backstory Breakdown:
Hot off his recent film Longlegs, director Osgood Perkins is back—because clearly, scaring us once wasn’t enough. This film is based on a short story by Stephen King (as if that man ever wrote a happy bedtime tale). And if that isn’t enough to make your heart jump, The Monkey is produced by James Wan, the mastermind behind The Conjuring. Translation? You’ll be sleeping with the lights on for weeks.

The Plot:
So, here’s what happens: Twin brothers Bill and Hal (because one brother wasn’t enough, apparently) discover their dad’s old toy monkey lurking in the attic like a ghost of toys past. Innocent, right? Nope. As soon as this cursed little primate shows up, people start dropping like flies. What’s the solution? Toss the monkey. Move on. But since this is a horror movie, things obviously don’t stay that simple. The brothers drift apart over the years—probably because who stays besties after a killer toy monkey wrecks their childhood?

The Cast:
You’ve got Theo James, Tatiana Maslany, and Elijah Wood leading this parade of fear. If Theo’s good looks don’t distract you, Tatiana’s range or Elijah’s hobbit-level intensity just might. But, honestly, it’s the monkey you’ll be thinking about long after the credits roll.

When’s This Nightmare Dropping?
Mark your calendars. The Monkey swings into theaters on February 21, 2025—just in time to ruin your Valentine’s Day recovery.
