The new Apple TV+ series, 'Bad Monkey,' directed by Bill Lawrence and starring Vince Vaughn, premieres on August 14. Adapted from Carl Hiaasen's 2013 novel, the series follows disgraced detective Andrew Yancy (Vaughn) as he investigates a severed arm found by tourists, uncovering a conspiracy threatening Florida's natural beauty. Despite initial concerns over a 'hideous' set construction in Florida, the series has been well-received for its engaging pace and Vaughn's fitting portrayal. The premiere event saw Vaughn celebrating with his family, further boosting the show's profile.
