Who else could play Nick Cage?
It seems bonkers that anyone but Nicolas Cage could play Nick Cage, but writers Tom Gormican and Kevin Etten faced an agonising wait from the star to see what he thought of the script, and so did have a couple of other names on the list just in case he wasn't interested.
However, the studios were pretty adamant that no other actor would do – not even Christian Bale or Daniel Day-Lewis, who the pair had considered just in case Cage said no to the role.The movie sees Cage play himself – well, a heightened version of himself called Nick Cage – as he accepts a $1 million offer to attend the birthday of a dangerous superfan called Javi in order to stave off financial ruin.
Things take an unexpected turn though when Nick Cage is recruited by a CIA operative to undertake a secret mission, forcing the creatively-unfulfilled actor to live up to his own legend and channel his most beloved characters to save himself and his family.."But there's an asterisk on all of this meaning if he doesn't want to do it, your sale goes away.
