Famous Hollywood star almost died alone in trailer, but was rescued by crew member.

In a recent interview, Elizabeth Banks shared a terrifying experience she had on the set of her latest film. The Hollywood star was filming for her new thriller, Skincare, when she suddenly started choking on a pea. The Hunger Games actor described the experience as "terrifying" and said she "couldn't breathe" until a crew member came to her rescue.

The 50-year-old screenstar recalled the incident, saying she was alone in her trailer during a lunch break when the pea got lodged in her throat. She panicked and tried to make noise, but couldn't. Just when she thought she was in serious trouble, a crew member walked in and asked if she was choking. Elizabeth gave him a thumbs up, and he immediately sprang into action.

The actor, who is also known for her role in Cocaine Bear, said the crew member, named Julius, gave her the Heimlich maneuver twice before the pea finally came loose. She credits Julius as her "guardian angel" and thanked him for literally saving her life on set. Elizabeth also hopes to spread awareness about the Heimlich maneuver and encourages people to watch videos and learn the technique, as it is "really easy" and can save lives.

The incident was a wake-up call for Elizabeth, who admitted that she had never thought about the importance of knowing the Heimlich maneuver before. In her latest role as Hope Goldman, a famous aesthetician in the movie Skincare, Elizabeth's character's brand is put in jeopardy when a rival sets up shop across the street. She enlists the help of her friend Jordan to uncover the saboteur, leading to wild consequences.

The film is loosely based on celebrity facialist Dawn DaLuise, which Elizabeth only found out about later in the process. She was completely invested in her character and the Los Angeles setting, not knowing the real-life inspiration behind it. The acclaimed star is known for taking on unique projects, such as her recent role in Apple TV+'s The Beanie Bubble, where she played the business partner to Beanie Baby creator Ty Warner.

In an interview with The Agency, Elizabeth shared how her character in The Beanie Bubble was inspired by the way women are often sidelined by men in real life. She believes that many women can relate to feeling like a supporting player in a male-dominated society, whether it's in their careers or personal lives. Elizabeth is passionate about taking on roles that challenge societal norms and shed light on important issues.
