COCAINE BEAR Goes On A Drug-Fuelled Killing Spree In First Red Band Trailer

On the heels of that bonkers poster, Universal Pictures has debuted the even more insane first trailer for Elizabeth Banks' Cocaine Bear. Get in line...

So yeah, it's probably safe to say there's been just a few liberties taken with this "true story."

Directed by Charlie's Angels helmer Elizabeth Banks, Cocaine Bear is indeed inspired by real-life events that saw a black bear ingest an entire bag of devil's dandruff worth $15 million while minding his own business in the Chattahoochee-Oconee national forest back in 1985.

In reality, the poor bear simply ate the coke and died shortly after, but, as we figured, this movie is going to... embellish the tale just a tad!

This first red band trailer sends the eponymous high-as-a-kite bear on a drug-fuelled killing spree, as the cops attempt to take him down and a gang of dealers try to find out if he left any of their merchandise in tact (spoiler: he didn't).

Cocaine Bear stars Keri Russell, O'Shea Jackson Jr., Alden Ehrenreich, Matthew Rhys, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Kristofer Hivju, Christian Convery, Brooklynn Prince, Margo Martindale, and Ray Liotta (in his final performance).

The comedy thriller is set to hit theaters on February 24, 2023.

I think the "hook" on this film is a bit lame. I know they are playing it for laughs, but it is at its core a Bear that goes on a rampage for whatever reason. It is just set in the context of a comedic narrative. I will watch it eventually but not necessarily in the theaters.
