The Apple TV <\/a> detective drama “Bad Monkey” has secured another cast member, with “Saturday Night Live” comedian and actor Alex Moffat taking a key role in the production. <\/p>\n

\n

Announced in August, “Bad Monkey” is a detective drama<\/a> starring Vince Vaughn being produced for Apple TV+. After an expansion of the cast in December<\/a>, the production added one more member in January. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“SNL” cast member Alex Moffat will be taking the role of “Evan Shook” in the drama, described<\/a> by Deadline<\/em> as an obnoxious real-estate developer who bought land next to main character “Andrew Yancy,” played by Vaughn. Shook is constructing a “hideous spec house” on the property, which Yancy repeatedly attempts to derail. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Moffat has been a cast member for “SNL” since 2016, and is also known for roles on “Holidate,” “Someone Great,” and “Clifford the Big Red Dog.” <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

In December, Michelle Monaghan, Jodie Turner-Smith, and Meredith Hagner joined the cast list. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“Bad Monkey” follows Yancy, a former detective demoted to a restaurant inspector, who is drawn into a world of greed and corruption after a tourist discovers a severed arm. It is based on the Carl Hiaasen bestseller of the same name, and is written by Emmy Award-nominated writer Bill Lawrence, who previously worked on “Ted Lasso.” <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
