If you grew up reading horror or have seen the trailer for Longlegs director Osgood Perkins' new movie The Monkey, you'll know it's based on Stephen King's short story of the same name. What you might not know, though, is that the film will forever share a bizarre connection to a Disney Pixar flick...
While the eponymous ape menacingly clangs cymbals together in the source material, the team behind the adaptation had to depict it banging a drum. "When I was given the assignment, the producer said, 'Oh, by the way, Disney owns the cymbals, because of [the toy monkey in] Toy Story,'" Perkins reveals in the new issue of SFX magazine, which features Daredevil: Born Again on the cover and hits newsstands on January 29.
