the trailers have barely showed him playing some of his movie characters so I guess they're holding back. That's a take on his Deadfall character at the end right?
The part where he has to climb over the wall and then about to pull over Pedro pascal who then just walks around is hilarious too me. Definitely want to watch this.
I mean, it was inevitable. Lots of the older actors, over the last years, made references or jokes/parodies about their kind of stereotypes. That they always play the same role, that the get old and so on. (I love R.E.D. btw.) and Nic Cage .. well you can not "joke" that way about him, the only way to pay real tribute for Nic Cage, is a movie with Nic Cage being Nic cage.
It is THE absolute smartest move he could make for his career right now. He might not love that that’s the case, but his agent(s) should get fat raises for encouraging/convincing him to lean into the memes and people ragging on him. That is the ONLY way people will ever come around to him, is if he shows that he can be down to earth and laugh at himself.
I shared an elevator with Mr. Cage at the Four Seasons in Toronto. Just me and him (and my brother). I wanted to talk to Nic so badly; but he was on the phone (or at least was pretending to be on the phone, holding it up to his ear). So I let the poor bugger be. He gave me an iconic look and nod as he got off the elevator first- kind of like: "thanks for not making it weird." That is my Nic Cage experience.
I used to work at William Morris Talent Agency in Beverly Hills. I had access to their entire archive of scripts. I printed out like 20 of them a month and read them in my spare time. Reading scripts is great because you know exactly what they cut out when you eventually see the movie.
Real talk, this is what bums me out about Nic Cage. There will only ever be one. There will be lots of actors come and go. Some more memorable than others. Pitt's great, Hanks is great, but fuck me there will ever only be one Nic Cage. A truly once in an existence figure.
Cage is here in New Orleans filming Renfield and I just want to bump into him and tell him how awesome it has been to watch his sort of "comeback" with films like Mandy, Pig, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (and now this)
Neil Patrick Harris is distracting here. It's like when Curb has Larry playing himself, Ted Danson playing himself, Richard Lewis playing himself, and Vince Vaughn playing... some guy.
As if Nic Cage alone isn't enough, they've added Pedro Pascal into the mix?? Now this has shot up my most anticipated films list. It looks hilarious, and out-there. Plus, Pedro Pascal seems to be perfect for the antagonistic role. He has the comedic chops, and can actually be menacing too.
I'm trying to avoid hyperbole but this might possibly be the most incredible film in the history of the galaxy and we should just stop making movies now.
Have...have we all been getting Joaquin-Phoenixed by Nic Cage all these year? Have the last 2 decades all been leading up to this film? IS HE A SECRET GENIUS WHO HAS BEEN WAITING FOR THE PERFECT COCKTAIL OF GEN X/MILLENIAL NOSTALGIA AND IRONY?
This trailer makes the movie actually look good. Also poor Ike Barinholtz, not getting a shout out in the trailer even though he had the funniest line.
Really looking forward to this movie. I hope it's gonna be good or, at the very least, that there will be many opportunities for Nic Cage to "cage-out"—otherwise what's the point.
I’ve loved all his new movies - Pig, Mandy, the one with the animatronics. Made me watch some of his older ones, like the one with John Cusac (s?) as a serial killer. Epic stuff. I’ll go see this one for sure.
Is it just me, or does this title seem like they read, "A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius" and were all, "Damn, that's a funny title. Too bad we can't steal it."
There's just something about this movie that means I'm going to see it. I don't simp for movies really at all...usually wait for them to come out and see the reviews...watch it like a year later..maybe.
Seems similar to a few movies. The new Guy Richie, JCVD, The Interview. But like you say, Nic Cage means it’s going to be its own thing. Looks like a good quality one, too!
In Theaters April 22
In other words, Nic Cage: The Movie.
Mr. Cage we're going to need to take your face... off
"Fictionalized"
Some say it's the role he was born to play.
Sounds like somebody found late JCVD inspiring.
It's like the College Humor skit o.O
That sounds so bad honestly. It's gonna be awesome.
Man this is going to be a fun movie to watch.
As a huge Nic Cage fan....
the trailers have barely showed him playing some of his movie characters so I guess they're holding back. That's a take on his Deadfall character at the end right?
I want to see Nick Cage win an Oscar for playing Nick Cage.
Pretty sure it's referencing his notoriously amped-up appearance on
Is this basically Nicolas Cage: No Way Home?
There had better be a bees reference!
Saw the trailer at the theatre the other day, looks fun, definitely give a view.
The part where he has to climb over the wall and then about to pull over Pedro pascal who then just walks around is hilarious too me. Definitely want to watch this.
Pedro Pascal's career strategy is "whatever the fuck I want"
It's really surprising how he blew up the most out of all the people from Game of Thrones.
It’s also “I star in a show that I basically just do a voice over for and show up once a year for a half day of actual filming”.
He will turn out to be the villain.
[удалено]
Truly the greatest acting job by any hairline ever.
The only actor to get a Hair Transplant so he could play himself in a film.
The chaotic hairline of a Puerto Rican beetlejuice
Reminds me of this classic
Another incoming classic from nic cage
I mean, it was inevitable. Lots of the older actors, over the last years, made references or jokes/parodies about their kind of stereotypes. That they always play the same role, that the get old and so on. (I love R.E.D. btw.) and Nic Cage .. well you can not "joke" that way about him, the only way to pay real tribute for Nic Cage, is a movie with Nic Cage being Nic cage.
Okay, this is a movie that I would like to support with my dollars by seeing in a theatre
That's high praise!
I would pay an indeterminate, near infinite, amt of rubles to do so.
I love how Nic Cage has pretty much fully embraced all the memes about him at this point.
Unfortunately, I don't think Cage finds it all that fun. Consider his
I had to make sure you weren't a bot. Every comment on YouTube was saying that.
It is THE absolute smartest move he could make for his career right now. He might not love that that’s the case, but his agent(s) should get fat raises for encouraging/convincing him to lean into the memes and people ragging on him.

That honestly would have been the highlight of my life if that happened to me
He filmed some really shitty movie in my hometown. Word was that he would hang out at this pet store that sold reptiles and handle the snakes.
Me and some friends were in an elevator with John Cusack and we just stared at him until he said, yeah it's me.
Did you at least walk out with a no look thumbs up?
Nicolas Cage is just killing it lately, everything he's been doing lately is just phenomenal
Everything but Jiu-Jitsu and Prisoners of the Ghostland
Here for Pedro. 🔥
You…read the script? Are you in the field or just something weird you do
I used to work at William Morris Talent Agency in Beverly Hills. I had access to their entire archive of scripts. I printed out like 20 of them a month and read them in my spare time. Reading scripts is great because you know exactly what they cut out when you eventually see the movie.
[удалено]
Doesn't reading the script for a movie ruin it?
Did you audition for the lead role or what?
You're here for Pedro when it has Nic fucking Cage in it?!?
Can you let us know what movies are referenced so I can revisit them?
In 100 years, no one will believe Nicholas Cage actually existed.
good time to start a religion?
If Nicholas Cage didn't exist, we would invent him.
Real talk, this is what bums me out about Nic Cage. There will only ever be one. There will be lots of actors come and go. Some more memorable than others. Pitt's great, Hanks is great, but fuck me there will ever only be one Nic Cage. A truly once in an existence figure.
I’m surprised how mainstream this looks from the two trailers. From the description I would’ve expected more of an A24/ Being John Malkovich feel
maybe it's just the trailer. I remember trailers for Blade Runner 2049 only shown action sequence which was about 5% of the movie
Cage is here in New Orleans filming Renfield and I just want to bump into him and tell him how awesome it has been to watch his sort of "comeback" with films like Mandy, Pig, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (and now this)
I recommend Mandy to everyone
Lol, love all the little extras:
Inject this into MY VEINS
Right? I am ALL fucking in!!!
Sweet Jesus I needed that
Feel better now. Needed it.
This looks like a blast. I need it and I’m ready for it.
My body is ready.
Neil Patrick Harris is distracting here. It's like when Curb has Larry playing himself, Ted Danson playing himself, Richard Lewis playing himself, and Vince Vaughn playing... some guy.
I assumed he was playing a fake version of himself. Is that not the case?
The Afterparty S1 final must be whack if it explains why Brett and the cop work for the CIA in the movie sequel.
As if Nic Cage alone isn't enough, they've added Pedro Pascal into the mix?? Now this has shot up my most anticipated films list. It looks hilarious, and out-there. Plus, Pedro Pascal seems to be perfect for the antagonistic role. He has the comedic chops, and can actually be menacing too.
He pulls off a Pablo Escobar-type villain quite well.
He was in the original teaser....lol
It’s amazing for how unhinged Nic Cage is he has really taken control of his career
Saw the trailer in front of The Batman on Friday and if it's half at fun as it looks it should be a hell of a good time
I love that they use KPOP in this trailer. Such a weird choice, but it fits so perfectly
That was k pop? Huh. Sounded kinda fun. What’s the track name?
Nic Cage playing himself? Yes
Wow, it's really good that Cage was available for this
onetruegod
I'm trying to avoid hyperbole but this might possibly be the most incredible film in the history of the galaxy and we should just stop making movies now.
Have...have we all been getting Joaquin-Phoenixed by Nic Cage all these year? Have the last 2 decades all been leading up to this film? IS HE A SECRET GENIUS WHO HAS BEEN WAITING FOR THE PERFECT COCKTAIL OF GEN X/MILLENIAL NOSTALGIA AND IRONY?
He is a good actor that just is willing to take risks with smaller budget movies it seems.
Looks so much fun. Can't wait.
This looks amazing! I am so excited
Greatest movie by the greatest actor ever.
I cannot fucking wait for this movie!!
At the end, they're gonna reveal it was Nick Cage as John Travolta as Nick Cage and it's gonna segue into Face/Off 2.
Malkovich!
Yes.
I was in from the get-go, then Pedro walked in ❤️
This trailer makes the movie actually look good. Also poor Ike Barinholtz, not getting a shout out in the trailer even though he had the funniest line.
I fucking love that Nic Cage is leaning into being a weirdo.
This is the strangest meta shit I've seen in a while. lol
lmao Im so down for this
I'm so happy to see him just absolutely embrace being the idea of himself the world has
sign me up fam
Fuck me. I’m there. The end had me crying.
Nic Cage and Javi aren’t the bros I expected to root the most for in 2022 and yet here we are
Saw an early screening of this, it was fun lol
Say what you want about Nick Cage, but the man has a sense of humor about himself. Bravo.
title of that movie is how i feel at work every day.
he better play a sexy cat in this I swear to god
So looking forward to this. Of all the “playing himself” pics Nic has to be the best choice.
This is movie we've all been waiting for: Nic Cage: The Movie. Then there'll be Nic Cage: The Movie: The Game
I want to see this!!!omg!
Yes. YES. YES!!!!
Is this the coolest trailer I've ever seen?
looks awesome
Can't wait for the memes that come from this movie
Say what you want about the quality of some of his recent movies, but nick cage is a GOAT
This is the most Nick Cage - Nick Cage movie so far, and I've never been more excited.
an absolute american treasure! nick fuckiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing cage!!!!
I hope this is his Travolta = Pulp Fiction. It looks fun and he deserves more love than he gets.
If there’s ever a remake of this film in the future, who would play Nic Cage?
Nic Cage
Nicolas Cage as Nicolas Cage in Nicolas Cage: The Movie.
This might be the finest thing to ever grace cinema. Or it could be a complete dumpster fire. Whatever - I'm in
I feel like this is a quote from Nic Cage right before he signs on to any number of movies.
I wonder how many people they auditioned for the lead role 🤔
How does this guy keep getting work?
As of 2022 nick cage has played:
This looks like an absolutely fun movie! How irreverent lol.
Well, this is going to be a fun film.
This looks good! Nic Cage is on a little revival with Pig and now this.
Don’t forget he’s also going to be Dracula for Universal next year
He’s been on a upswing for like 4 years at this point. The movie industry has really shifted to allow decent weird movies to get made.
And Mandy. If you haven't seen that, you are doing yourself a disservice.
Really looking forward to this movie. I hope it's gonna be good or, at the very least, that there will be many opportunities for Nic Cage to "cage-out"—otherwise what's the point.
That looks awesome.
I’ve loved all his new movies - Pig, Mandy, the one with the animatronics. Made me watch some of his older ones, like the one with John Cusac (s?) as a serial killer. Epic stuff. I’ll go see this one for sure.
Is this him announcing his retirement from acting?
I now must see this in the Cinema on release, it's something I never knew I needed but now I must have it.
I'm so gd excited for this
Is it just me, or does this title seem like they read, "A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius" and were all, "Damn, that's a funny title. Too bad we can't steal it."
Umm... yes please
badass!
the trailer gave everything away
Finally a movie of his I can watch.
I must see it.
Looks entertaining for sure
LMAO I'm so excited for this!!
I love ike barinholtz he doesn't do enough
The movie we don't need but deserve. I completely forgot I watched The Batman. I need this movie right now!
The joke at the beginning of the trailer about Cage going to the Island to be some kind of sex toy for Pascal intrigued me. I’d watch that movie.
It should be called Nick Cage continuous to laugh all the way to the bank.
I did not care about this movie until I saw the trailer. Now this is the only movie I want to watch this year.
Cannot wait, this looks amazing!
I think this movie will finally answer the question: Nick Cage. Good? or Bad?
now that's how you do fan service!
This actually looks incredibly entertaining.
Well this looks like I am going to love it.
I approve.
This movie reminds me of a time before I was sad. Looks really good.
This looks absolutely AMAZING! I cannot wait to see it in a theater.
This looks so ridiculous, it will be amazing
There's just something about this movie that means I'm going to see it. I don't simp for movies really at all...usually wait for them to come out and see the reviews...watch it like a year later..maybe.
Yes, please.
This seems like a more grounded version of The Interview tbh. I’m very excited
Looks fun
onetruegod
Well now I know the whole plot.
cool
This looks profoundly stupid.
Ike Barinholtz getting more work, as he deserves.
Mother of god, this might be the movie that makes me go back to the theater for the first time in years.
Im gonna see it
I recently watched Valley Girl & it changed my opinion on his acting. So I'd like to see this.
Looks cool and funny !
Just like Everything Everywhere All At Once, this movie is right in my wheelhouse. I can't wait.
This looks incredible
Huh, that looks amazing. But, that movie sound a lot like JCVD? But better because it's with Nick Cage.
Seems similar to a few movies. The new Guy Richie, JCVD, The Interview. But like you say, Nic Cage means it’s going to be its own thing. Looks like a good quality one, too!
This looks straight up incredible
It’s all just been one long con for this masterpiece.
Missed a trick by not releasing on April fools day
Holy shit. Nic Cage has something I want to see besides Con Air and The Rock.
It's Bojack Horseman The movie.
They used black pinks song let’s go
This was cool but I had to stop watching before it gave away the whole damn movie.
Miss the trailers from the 90s. Feel like I just watched all the best bits.
Nick Cage playing Nick Cage. It almost seems like a fake parody trailer on SNL. lol
This is really going to mess with abed and that poor professor...
Nick looks really good.
Mister?
I cannot wait to see this. It's so absurd, yet so amazing.
Ok, I will watch it
Not watching this trailer. Waiting for the movie.
This just looks so goddamn funny to me. I can’t wait to see this.
This is gonna be the best Nic Cage movie ever.
Probably the first Nic Cage movie I've genuinely wanted to see since Con Air.
He's just a dude disguised as himself, playing himself as himself.
OMIGOD. i need this in my life.
I never thought that I'd being say "I want to go see that Nicholas Cage movie" ever again.
Just saw this movie.
Looks like fun. But having seen that trailer I feel like I've already seen the movie now
Not really! There’s a huge part of the plot that hasn’t been mentioned or alluded to in any of the promos. Source, I’ve read the script.
They hooked me with Blackpink in the trailer.
This feels like the kind of movie Reddit is going to circlejerk to death
