A bloodied Theo James stares in shock in creepy teaser trailer for The Monkey
Stephen King's 1980 horror short story, The Monkey, has been turned into a movie, and Neon has just dropped the official teaser trailer to get people pumped up for its upcoming release. Mark your calendar because The Monkey is set to be released in U.S. theaters by Neon on Feb. 21, 2025!
While the teaser trailer is a short, 44-second video, what will surely catch your attention in the trailer is a bloodied Theo James seemingly staring at something in shock. Did his character kill someone, or did he witness a murder committed by the evil monkey toy? We can't wait to find out by watching the horror flick when it hits theaters next February! You can check out the teaser trailer above.
Longlegs director Osgood Perkins wrote and helmed the supernatural horror film, which follows twin brothers Hal and Bill who, after discovering their father's old monkey toy in the attic, begin to witness a series of brutal deaths happening around them. Hoping that it will stop the killings, the brothers throw away the toy and move on with their lives. But when the killings start happening again, the brother duo are forced to band together to put an end to the cursed toy once and for all.
Theo James (The White Lotus, The Gentlemen) plays both twin brothers, Hal and Bill, while Sweet Tooth's Christian Convery portrays younger versions of the twin brothers. Tatiana Maslany (She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, Invincible), Elijah Wood (Yellowjackets, The Lord of the Rings trilogy), Colin O’Brien (Wonka, Dear Edward), Rohan Campbell (Halloween Ends, The Hardy Boys), and Sarah Levy (Schitt's Creek) join them in the cast.
In addition, James Wan, Michael Clear, Dave Caplan, Brian Kavanaugh-Jones, and Chris Ferguson are producing, with Fred Berger, Peter Luo, Nancy Xu, and John Friedberg as executive producers.
