Greed. Corruption. Mountains of cocaine.

If you read those three words and the image that pops to mind is of Emma Stone, we are genuinely concerned for you. But we also know you're not alone.

And in so doing, she'll be adding to the rich legacy of coke in Miami movies, one that's naturally dominated by Scarface.
