Elizabeth Banks recalls terrifying moment when she nearly DIED choking on a pea while on movie set


The 50-year-old Hunger Games actress had been working on her upcoming thriller, Skincare, when she took a break to eat lunch by herself and began to choke on a green pea in her trailer.

The star's upcoming film, Skincare, is loosely inspired by celebrity facialist Dawn DaLuise, who was accused of a murder-for-hire plot against a rival aesthetician. The film follows a fictional aesthetician named Hope, who is gearing up to launch her own skincare line when a rival facialist, Angel Vergara (Luis Gerardo Méndez), opens a new boutique directly across from her store. Banks previously called out Hollywood for marketing her 2019 feature adaptation of Charlie's Angels as a 'feminist manifesto' when she only wanted to make an action movie.
