Adrian Monk, one of the most famous detectives on the small screen, will soon be back for an eventful movie. More than ten years after his last investigation, Monk (Tony Shalhoub) will be back on duty on December 8, 2023 on Peacock for a very personal case involving his daughter-in-law, Molly, who is about to get married. Played by Alona Tal in the series, Molly’s character will be played by Caitlin McGee in Mr. Monk’s Last Case: A Monk Movie.
Tony Shalhoub won’t be the only iconic series actor to return, as Traylor Howard (Natalie Teeger), Jason Grey-Stanford (Randall Disher), Ted Levine (Leland Stottlemeyer), Melora Hardin (Trudy Monk) and Hector Elizondo (Dr. Neven Bell) will also reprise their roles.

In a statement, series creator Andy Breckman, executive producer David Hoberman and director Randy Zisk reassured Monk fans that the plot of this final investigation “will be both familiar and surprising.” They added: “It’s been 12 years since the world has seen a fresh installment of Monk. The world has changed mightily in those intervening years and Monk 2023 reflects the changing world. We’re so delighted to have made a movie version of Monk, and we are thrilled that every one of our stars were so enthusiastic about coming back. But in coming back, we wanted to do a film that was worthy of our legacy. Mr. Monk’s Last Case is a story that is powerful, emotional, funny, heartwarming and has something to say about the human condition.”
