Here's what you need to know before watching CocaineBear, according to Scott Seiss:
2023 has already been filled with a handful of movies that have taken the internet by storm, but none have been as uniquely fascinating as the horror comedy Cocaine Bear. The Elizabeth Banks-directed film’s absurd premise, loosely inspired by true events, and trailers have ensured that this drug-infested mammal is going to be a cinematic star.
In a 30-second video posted to Seiss’ Twitter page, the actor informs us that we need to know absolutely nothing. Like the magic conch from Spongebob, it’s that humorously simple. Cocaine Bear isn’t part of some grand cinematic universe like the MCU or a part of a comic book property from the mid-20th century. All you need to know are the two words featured in the title: cocaine and bear. That’s it.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY What’s Cocaine Bear About? The film is loosely inspired by the 1985 events that saw a drug runner’s plane crash and a bear eating the remains of their missing cocaine. While the bear quickly died in real life, Cocaine Bear imagines what if this ill-fated animal went on a rampage and terrorized a bunch of colorful characters. Again, the concept is gleefully simple.
