Cocaine Bear Trailer Is Out for Blow and Blood

Universal Pictures has brought online the trailer and poster for dark comedy Cocaine Bear, directed by Elizabeth Banks and opening in theaters on February 24, 2023.

Cocaine Bear is inspired by the 1985 true story of a drug runner’s plane crash, missing cocaine, and the black bear that ate it.

The wild dark comedy finds an oddball group of cops, criminals, tourists and teens converging in a Georgia forest where a 500- pound apex predator has ingested a staggering amount of cocaine and gone on a coke-fueled rampage for more blow… and blood.

The movie was directed by Elizabeth Banks (Charlie’s Angels, Pitch Perfect 2) from a screenplay by Jimmy Warden (The Babysitter: Killer Queen).
