Director/Producer Elizabeth Banks, who always impresses us with her vast array of talents, joins Hollywood Gold for a second time to discuss one of 2023's most talked about movies, COCAINE BEAR. Banks responded to the script as soon as she read it as she was looking for an unexpected follow up to CHARLIE'S ANGELS. The myriad difficulties of having a CGI bear as the main character were amplified by the restrictions of a film shoot in the middle of COVID. Shot in Ireland, the film has a unique feel that is an homage to monster movies of the 1980s.
