Elizabeth Banks is reportedly directing a movie about Cocaine Bear - the bear who became famous in 1985 for eating 70 pounds of cocaine
This is such a big story, even Bette Midler chimed in tweeting:
#ElizabethBanks is directing a movie based on a true story about a bear who consumed 70 pounds of #cocaine dropped into the woods by a smuggler in 1985. I don't know if there's a part that's right for me in it, Liz, but if the bear needs an acting coach, I have seen some shit!
