He just needs to get past a trove of Floridian oddballs and one bad monkey.

The ensemble cast also includes L. Scott Caldwell ("The Fugitive"), Rob Delaney ("Catastrophe"), Meredith Hagner ("Search Party"), Natalie Martinez ("La Promesa del Retorno"), Alex Moffat ("Saturday Night Live," "Holidate"), Michelle Monaghan ("Gone Baby Gone"), Ronald Peet ("First Reformed"), Jodie Turner-Smith ("Queen & Slim"), with special guest star John Ortiz ("American Fiction") and guest stars Zach Braff ("Scrubs"), Ashley Nicole Black ("Ted Lasso"), Scott Glenn ("The Leftovers") and Charlotte Lawrence in her television debut.

Hailing from Warner Bros. Television, "Bad Monkey" is developed by executive producer and showrunner Bill Lawrence through his Doozer Productions. Jeff Ingold, Matt Tarses ("Scrubs"), Marcos Siega, Vaughn and Liza Katzer are also executive producers.

"Bad Monkey" marks the most recent collaboration between Bill Lawrence and Warner Bros. Television for Apple TV+, following Emmy-nominated global hit series "Shrinking" and global phenomenon "Ted Lasso."
