Hit-Monkey Returns In Season 2 First Look

Hulu’s ‘Hit-Monkey’ Season 2 will premiere on July 15th.

Hulu has unveiled the first photos from the highly anticipated second season of “Hit-Monkey.” The season will feature the dynamic duo Bryce and Monkey navigating the bustling streets of New York City. Fans can catch the new season starting Monday, July 15, exclusively on Hulu.

In this new season, Monkey, the Japanese snow monkey, finds himself in New York City. He is searching for a way out of his violent lifestyle while Bryce, the ghost of an American assassin, attempts to make amends for his past misdeeds. The pair faces a tumultuous journey as they grapple with the question: What will it cost them to undo their pasts?

Originally launched in 2021, the series quickly gained a dedicated following for its unique blend of dark comedy and action.

The show follows Monkey, who, after witnessing his tribe’s slaughter, is aided by Bryce’s spirit on a path of vengeance. This partnership turns him into a notorious “killer of killers,” carving out a niche in the realm of animated anti-heroes. Season 2 promises to delve deeper into the character’s backstories and motivations. Leslie Jones, Ally Maki, Cristin Milioti, Olivia Munn, Fred Tatasciore, and Jason Sudeikis return to lend their voices to the vibrant, complex characters that populate this gritty, animated world.

“Hit-Monkey” has been praised for its distinct visual style and compelling storytelling. The character first appeared in Marvel Comics, debuting in a 2010 one-shot. Created by writer Daniel Way and artist Dalibor Talajić, Hit-Monkey quickly became a cult favorite. That was due to his unique origin and the darkly comedic tone of his stories. Unlike many Marvel characters, Hit-Monkey’s background is rooted in tragedy and revenge. It is what sets him apart as a character-driven by a desire for justice and retribution.

The second season continues this legacy.

It blends the character’s comic book roots with fresh, animated storytelling. Season 2 promises to deliver more intense action and dark humor that made the show a hit. As Bryce and Monkey navigate the complexities of New York City, they must confront the ghosts of their pasts and the consequences of their actions. The new season will explore themes of redemption and the cost of vengeance, all while maintaining the sharp wit and fast-paced action that has become the show’s trademarks.

Don’t miss the season premiere of “Hit-Monkey” on July 15, only on Hulu, to see how this extraordinary tale of a snow monkey and a ghost assassin unfolds in the city that never sleeps.
