Daniel Rojas Scores Marvel’s HIT-MONKEY

MARVEL’S HIT-MONKEY, or simply HIT-MONKEY, is an upcoming American adult animated streaming television series created by Will Speck and Josh Gordon for the streaming service Hulu, based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name.

Fred Tatasciore stars as Hit-Monkey, which tells the tale of a wronged Japanese snow monkey, mentored by the ghost of an American assassin, as he cuts a wide swath through the Tokyo underworld. Jason Sudeikis, George Takei, Olivia Munn, Ally Maki, and Nobi Nakanishi also star. The series was announced and ordered at Hulu in February 2019, as part of a group of series based on Marvel characters that were intended to lead to a crossover special titled The Offenders, with it being produced by Marvel Television.

Daniel Rojas (KIPO AND THE AGE OF WONDERBEASTS) has been tapped to score the upcoming Hulu animated series Marvel’s Hit-Monkey. Rojas previously scored Marvel’s adult animated series M.O.D.O.K., which premiered earlier this year. Marvel’s HIT-MONKEY will debut on November 17, 2021 on Hulu.
