Monkey Man has generated significant buzz among audiences with its gripping narrative and cinematic flair. Since its release, Indian fans have eagerly waited for the film’s availability in India. Recently, a renowned platform has announced that Monkey Man will be available for streaming later this month.
Monkey Man premiered on April 5, 2024, in several countries, including the United States, Canada, Ireland, and the United Kingdom. Although the release for the Indian audience was initially scheduled for April 19, 2024, it did not occur as planned. This delay left Indian fans wondering about the film’s availability. Directed and co-written by Dev Patel, the film showcases his multifaceted talent. The cast includes Vipin Sharma, Sikandar Kher, Sobhita Dhulipala, Paul Angunawela, and John Collee.
Currently available on Prime Video, Monkey Man has been inaccessible to Indian audiences. Monkey Man’s synopsis on Prime Video reads, “Monkey Man stars Dev Patel as Kid, an anonymous young man who ekes out a meager living in an underground fight club where, night after night, wearing a gorilla mask, he is beaten bloody by more popular fighters for cash. As his childhood trauma boils over, his mysteriously scarred hands unleash an explosive campaign of retribution to settle the score with the men who took everything from him.”
Can Dev Patel’s Monkey Man be streamed in India?
Recently, the streaming platform Peacock announced that the film will premiere on their platform on June 14. However, this announcement is bittersweet for Indian audiences, as Peacock is only available for US users. To access content on Peacock, a device must physically be located in the US, making it nearly impossible for Indian viewers to watch it digitally from their homes.
Additionally, Monkey Man will also have a digital release on June 11, with its 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD versions becoming available on June 25. Despite these releases, there is still no confirmation regarding its availability on digital platforms accessible in India.
As it stands, Indian fans will need to wait for an official announcement. Until then, it remains uncertain when or if Monkey Man will be available for Indian audiences.
