Inspired by true events, Universal’s thriller Cocaine Bear is on the way early next year from director Elizabeth Banks (Charlie’s Angels), and the official poster roars to life this afternoon.
Universal will bring Cocaine Bear to theaters on February 24, 2023.
Check out the poster below. And whatever you do, don’t coke the bear…
The movie is inspired by true events that took place in Kentucky in 1985, and it was written by Jimmy Warden. Phil Lord and Chris Miller (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse) produced.
The basic gist of the story is that a 175-pound black bear was found dead from an overdose after ingesting massive amounts of cocaine dropped into the woods by a drug smuggler.
Deadline details, “The movie 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.”
Keri Russell, Ray Liotta, Alden Ehrenreich, O’Shea Jackson and Jesse Tyler Ferguson star in the movie. Brian Duffield (Underwater, Spontaneous) is also on board to produce.
