The late Ray Liotta, who starred in the buzzy new 'Cocaine Bear,' was recently remembered by his colleagues, co-star Alden Ehrenreich and director Elizabeth Banks.
in 2021, Liotta called the film “kind of nutty.” He also loved the title: “I go, ‘Cocaine Bear? What the fudge?’ ”
“We had a great hug and he was really proud of the movie. He laughed at what it had become,” Banks says. “That's how I'm remembering Ray: I’m picturing him holding me in a hug.” Ehrenreich was excited to just do a couple of scenes with Liotta."I grew up watching him, but you get this firsthand experience of the feeling that comes off onscreen. He was so powerful,” says Ehrenreich, whose mom was pregnant when she saw “Field of Dreams” and liked the name of the film’s director, Phil Alden Robinson, for her baby boy.
