Universal Pictures! Here are options for downloading or watching Cocaine Bear streaming the full movie online for free on 123movies, Putlocker & Reddit, including where to watch the anticipated real-life true story Movies at home. Is Cocaine Bear 2023 available to stream? Is watching Cocaine Bear on Netflix, HBO Max, Disney Plus, Hulu or Amazon Prime? Yes, we have found an authentic streaming option/service.

The film industry has no shortage of movies based on real-life events, all with varying accuracy to the events that are being adapted. From impeccably faithful biopics like the story of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. seen in Selma (2014) to looser comedic outings like the recent parody Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, films based on true stories are easily the most common and sought-after premises by studios for potential projects, as they're typically far easier to procure the rights for than an established, popular IP. It feels like every other week a new film based on real-life events hits either movie theaters or any of the many streaming services out there, but every once in a while, a film releases a trailer with the words "Based on a true story" in it that features a premise so bizarre and so absurd that it can't possibly be true.

Yet, a true story is exactly what inspired the next film from filmmaker Elizabeth Banks, Cocaine Bear (2023), which tells the very real story of, you guessed it, a black bear under the influence of cocaine. Well, to be perfectly honest, the inciting incident and namesake of the film is seemingly the only true event to be seen, originating from an event where a wild Georgian bear helped itself to a large serving of smuggled cocaine when a plane crashed in the state in 1985. The horrific and bloody rampage that the bear embarks on for the film adaptation is fictional, but it also looks like a hell of an absurd good time.

When & Where Cocaine Bear Will Be Streaming Based On Other Universal Movies

As a Universal movie, Cocaine Bear will drop on Peacock once it begins streaming. Universal has still yet to confirm the streaming release date for the true story-inspired Cocaine Bear, as the studio is doubtlessly pushing for audiences to experience the absurdity of the film in theaters. However, when looking at the prior release strategies for late-2022 and early 2023 movies from Universal, the online streaming premiere of Cocaine Bear will likely occur between 45 and 50 days after its theatrical release.

M3GAN premiered in theaters on January 6 before dropping on Peacock for streaming exactly seven weeks later on February 24. Similarly, Violent Night debuted in theaters on December 2, 2022 and hit Peacock seven weeks later on January 20, 2023. Since Cocaine Bear fits into Universal’s camp of horror-comedies, it’s apt to follow the 49-day exclusive theatrical window before being available on streaming. As such, audiences can expect the killer Cocaine Bear movie to stream on Peacock starting April 14, though it will likely only be available to Peacock Premium subscribers.

Where to Watch Cocaine Bear:

As of now, the only way to watch Cocaine Bear is to head out to a theater when it releases on Friday, Feb. 24. You can find a local showing on Fandango. Otherwise, you’ll just have to wait for it to become available to rent or buy on digital platforms like Vudu, Amazon, Apple and YouTube, or become available to stream on Peacock.

Inspired by the 1985 true story of a drug runner's plane crash, missing cocaine, and the black bear that ate it, this wild thriller finds an oddball group of cops, criminals, tourists and teens converging in a Georgia forest where a 500-pound apex predator has ingested a staggering amount of cocaine and gone on a coke-fueled rampage for more blow … and blood.
