Elizabeth Banks Is Down to Make a Cocaine Shark After Cocaine Bear

Elizabeth Banks Is Down to Make a Cocaine Shark After Cocaine Bear

Elizabeth Banks’ crazy upcoming film Cocaine Bear may be the start of a glorious cinematic universe.  Thanks to a recent police discovery off the coast of New Zealand, Banks has confirmed interest in making a Cocaine Shark movie.

Earlier this week, police down under discovered more than three tons of cocaine floating in the Pacific Ocean as part of a drug-smuggling scheme. Naturally, the internet immediately began joking about sea animals discovering the drugs, since Cocaine Bear was inspired by a real black bear that got its paws on a bag of coke in a Georgia forest in 1985.

Banks herself heard the story, and she told People it could lend itself to something of a Cocaine Shark. “If there’s a great story, then sure,” the director said. “Jaws with cocaine, I don’t see how that loses.”
