Earlier, Banks shared some details to know about his movie:

“Cocaine Bear is a horror comedy. There are a lot of horror tropes that we played with in the movie. You know, it’s a bear on cocaine that attacks people! But it’s also a really fun character piece. This is a large group of people who come together and are very much in their heads. Everyone goes after the drugs, and no one realizes that the bear got there first.

“[El guión de Jimmy Warden] it was so unique, and I thought it really offered me an opportunity to play in a genre that I hadn’t really considered before, and do something original.

“Cocaine Bear is super entertaining. If you want to drop everything in your life for 95 minutes, this is a great way to do it.. It’s an amazing adventure.
