'Semi-Pro' Bear Kills Its Trainer
Uh, someone draft the "No Bears" clause for Will's contract now
I don't think Will Ferrell will be wrestling anymore bears in the future as the bear he "acted" opposite in Semi-Pro decided to kill one of his trainers reports Yahoo.
The grizzly bear that wrestled Will Ferrell's character in the recent film "Semi-Pro" seemed to obediently follow cues — which made its killing of its trainer with a bite to the neck all the more stunning.
Three experienced handlers were working with the grizzly Tuesday at the Predators in Action wild animal training center when the bear attacked Stephan Miller, 39, said San Bernardino County sheriff's spokeswoman Cindy Beavers. [...]
In a February interview, Randy Miller called Rocky "the best working bear in the business," the San Bernardino Sun reported on its Web site Wednesday. But, the paper quoted him as saying, "If one of these animals gets a hold of your throat, you're finished."
There is no word on whether or not the bear will be euthanized, but I think CGI is now looking like a far more viable option. Either that or Nic Cage in a bear suit:
