Hit-Monkey Season 2 Sneak Preview: A Deadly Chase Through NYC
Hitting Hulu on July 15th, here's a sneak preview for the second season of Josh Gordon & Will Speck's Jason Sudeikis-starring Hit-Monkey.
With only days to go until the second season of Josh Gordon & Will Speck's Jason Sudeikis-starring Hit-Monkey hits our screens, we're getting a special look at what we can expect. Could New York City prove to be the key to Monkey escaping his life of killing? Can Bryce repair the damage to those he wronged in life? Can either of those things be accomplished without a whole ton of violence? Right now, it looks like those questions will have to wait because Haruka (Ally Maki) is on the wrong end of a high-speed chase – and what's chasing her is bulletproof.
Produced by 20th Television Animation, with animation by Floyd County Productions, the animated series also features the voices of Leslie Jones, Cristin Milioti, Olivia Munn, Fred Tatasciore, Rob Corddry, Jim Gaffigan, and Keith David. Here's a look at a sneak preview for Hulu's Hit-Monkey Season 2 – hitting the streets on Monday, July 15th:
In December 2020, an important milestone happened in the world of Marvel Studios. That was when Hulu's Tom Austen and Sydney Lemmon-starring Helstrom was canceled after one season. Now while shows get canceled all of the time, this one was special because it also marked the final live-action project that ex-Marvel Television head Jeph Loeb would have under the new, comprehensive (and Kevin Feige-led) Marvel Studios banner. Marvel's Ghost Rider? Gone. Hulu's Marvel's Runaways? Done in three. Freeform's Marvel's Cloak and Dagger? Gone in two. ABC's Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.? Also done. And animated series Howard the Duck, Tigra & Dazzler Show, and The Offenders were canned before they ever hit the serious production stage.
The list grew in May 2022 with the news that Jordan Blum and Patton Oswalt's Marvel's M.O.D.O.K. would also not be returning for a second season, despite strong viewer and critical responses. And even in terms of Hit-Monkey returning, the series will head into Season 2 without "Marvel" in its name. Some say all of this was in response to how the power play within Marvel went down between Feige and Loeb before Feige would finally claim the crown and go "scorched earth" on anything that had Loeb's name attached to it. Others see what we listed above as an organic ending of those projects that just so happen to go down at the same time some boardroom drama was in play.
