This week, James, Jerah, and Jon are joined by writer and actor Rekha Shankhar (Digman, Grand Crew) to cover Monkey Man, screenplay by Dev Patel, Paul Angunawela, and John Collee, directed by Dev Patel, and starring Dev Patel, Sharlto Copley, Pitobash, Vipin Sharma, Sikandar Kher, and Adithi Kalkunte. Together, they cover the film's winding road to a theatrical release, just how exciting it is to see Dev Patel debuting as an action director, the incredible look of the film, the cache Jordan Peele brought to the mix, its brutal fight beats, the considerable amount of biting, whether or not movies are, again, back, and much more!
