Production

In December 2018, Bill Lawrence's Doozer Productions signed an eight-figure five-year overall deal with Warner Bros. Television.[8] In August 2021, the two studios announced the development of Bad Monkey, a 10-episode drama series based on the 2013 novel of the same name by Carl Hiaasen, with Vince Vaughn starring and Apple TV+ distributing.[1] In December 2021, Michelle Monaghan, Jodie Turner-Smith, and Meredith Hagner joined the cast.[2] In January 2022, Ana Villafañe, Rob Delaney, Ahmed Elhaj, Arturo Luis Soria, and Alex Moffat were added to the cast.[3][7] In March 2022, Natalie Martinez was cast as a series regular to replace Villafañe because, according to Deadline Hollywood, "the character had been written older than Villafañe's age, leading to the decision to replace her."[4] In April, L. Scott Caldwell and Charlotte Lawrence were reported to star, with Ronald Peet taking over Elhaj's role.[5] In June, it was announced John Ortiz had been cast to replace Soria in the series.[6]

Filming began in February 2022 under the working title Marcel. Shooting took place in the Florida Keys and Miami, Florida.[9][10] Filming locations included Duval Street, Key West.[11]
