The Hit-Monkey Season 2 animated series will premiere on the Hulu streaming service in 2024.
Following the renewal announcement from back in February, the show’s official social media account posted a new poster with the news.
“SEASON 2 COMING 2024,” posted the account last Thursday for National Monkey Day.
The animated series made its debut in November of 2021 and is the only Marvel animated series to survive Kevin Feige’s Marvel TV cancellations which include the MODOK, Howard The Duck, and Tigra & Dazzler.
What is Hit-Monkey?
The series is based on the comics of the same names and follows a monkey who is an assassin: After a high-profile political assassination goes sideways, an injured hitman hides out amongst a tribe of snow monkeys in the mountains of Japan.
Marvel.com previously said in the Season 2 announcement: “After an explosive first season of Hit-Monkey on Hulu where a Japanese snow monkey’s tribe was slaughtered, leading him to join forces with the ghost of an American assassin and together, they killed their way through the Yakuza underworld, Hulu announced today that the animated series will be returning for season two! The action continues in season two as Bryce and Monkey head to the city that never sleeps, New York City!”
Returning for season two includes cast members Olivia Munn as Akiko, the smart and ambitious niece of the future prime minister; Jason Sudeikis as Bryce, a world-weary assassin who has made poor life choices; Ally Maki as Haruka, an honest cop from a small town, and Fred Tatasciore returns as the voice of Hit-Monkey, with Leslie Jones added to the Season 2 cast in an unknown role.
Hit-Monkey is co-created and executive produced by Josh Gordon and Will Speck and produced by 20th Television Animation.
