Hollywood star Nicolas Cage has won an Oscar, starred in both blockbusters and Indie titles, inspired internet memes and stolen the Declaration of Independence. Now, he will be starring as a version of himself, called Nick Cage, in the new Lionsgate movie The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent.
When Cage first got the pitch for the meta-comedy-drama-action film, his first response was ‘absolute horror’. “There was no muscle in my body that told me I should play a character named Nick Cage, it was absolute horror,” he said. “However, the director wrote me a very intelligent, sensitive letter, and in that letter I knew he was a true film enthusiast that likes some of the earlier work.” The film’s Nick Cage is a world-famous actor, but one who’s on the verge of retirement and is a “highly neurotic” and “anxiety-filled interpretation”.
Before calling it quits from acting, Nick Cage accepts an offer from a billionaire fan, played by Pedro Pascal, to attend his birthday party. However, the super fan turns out to be a super crime boss, and Cage must escape using the action skills from his movie career. — IANS
