Nicolas Cage will portray John Madden, the legendary American football coach and sports commentator, in director David O. Russell’s upcoming biographical drama “Madden.”
“Nicolas Cage, one of our greatest and most original actors, will portray the best of the American spirit of originality, fun, and determination in which anything is possible as beloved national legend John Madden,” Russell said in a statement. “Together with the ferocious style, focus, and inspired individualism of Al Davis, owner of the underdog Oakland Raiders, the feature will be about the joy, humanity and genius that was John Madden in a wildly inventive, cool world of the 1970s.”
Madden, who died in 2021 at the age of 85, was the burly, garrulous head coach of the Oakland Raiders in the 1970s, leading the team to many championship games and its first Super Bowl victory. He became a mainstay of television football coverage, spending three decades as...

Distributor Neon has one of its biggest hits in theaters right now with Osgood Perkins‘s “Longlegs,” a serial killer thriller that has been compared (mostly positively) to Jonathan Demme‘s “The Silence of the Lambs” and David Fincher‘s “Se7en.” It’s Neon’s highest-grossing movie ever, surpassing the $53.4 million domestic gross for Bong Joon Ho‘s Best Picture Oscar-winning “Parasite.” It was at $71.3 million after this past Sunday.
SEEBox office: ‘Longlegs’ stretches ahead of expectations, as ‘Fly Me to the Moon’ crash-lands
In fact, the movie has become such a hit that one might wonder whether it has entered the public consciousness enough to be remembered at awards time, with Cage’s performance as the title character, a demented serial killer driven by Satan, being mentioned favorably in the predominantly positive reviews.
A few examples of critics singling out Cage include:

Independent studio A24 may have scored one of the most sought-after casts of the year. Sources confirm that Zendaya and Robert Pattinson are in early negotiations to headline director Kristoffer Borgli’s new project, titled “The Drama.”
The film would continue the success both actors have found balancing mainstream blockbusters with critically-acclaimed indies. Zendaya just dominated the box office with her role in “Dune: Part Two” and shone in the tennis drama “Challengers,” while Pattinson most recently donned the bat suit for “The Batman” and has worked with auteur directors like Robert Eggers.
Though plot details are under tight wraps, “The Drama” is said to revolve around a romance that takes an intriguing detour as a couple prepares to walk down the aisle. Borgli made waves at Cannes with “Sick of Myself” and his comedic skills were on display in “Dream Scenario,” signaling he’ll bring a singular vision.

A24 is collaborating once again with Dream Scenario director Kristoffer Borgli, with Zendaya and Robert Pattinson on board for The Drama.
There was plenty of critical acclaim for Kristoffer Borgli’s 2023 offbeat drama Dream Scenario. The film starred Nicolas Cage as a college professor who becomes a global celebrity when he starts appearing in everybody’s dreams across the globe. The film possessed that trademark unconventionality that we’ve come to expect from A24 films and scored some good reviews too.
As such – despite publicly expressing a desire to movie its projects further into the mainstream – there was always a chance that A24 would want to be involved in Borgli’s next project. It looks like the studio will get to have its cake and eat it, given that the filmmaker is set to sign up two major names for his next film, simply titled The Drama.

Nicolas Cage has turned around his film career in recent years, starring in more indie films. He was recently seen in one of the most terrifying films of the year, Longlegs. Cage earlier starred in Dream Scenario, which earned him a nomination at this year’s Golden Globes. Cage’s script selection has been receiving praise ever since the critical acclaim for 2018’s Mandy.

Spoilers for "Longlegs" follow.
It seems to happen like a clockwork. A new Nicolas Cage movie will arrive, and with it comes a question: "Is Nicolas Cage a good actor?" Cage has been working for decades now, but at some point, some folks got it in their heads that the off-kilter performer was bad at his job. To be fair, this could have something to do with the quality of the films he appears in. Cage once got himself in trouble with the IRS -- he made lavish purchases (including buying a dinosaur skull that turned out to be stolen), and according to CNBC, ended up owing the IRS "$6.3 million in property taxes."
To offset his financial woes, Cage began working -- a lot. He would seemingly take any job thrown his way, and as a result, he appeared in a lot of direct-to-video stinkers. Now, I'm not going to...

A.I. may be the future, but it’s certainly not the one Nicolas Cage would want.
It’s been a while since the sundry technological advancements materializing across the globe started seeping into the cracks and crevices of Hollywood. Sure, change is the law of life and all that but – in the golden words of Michael Scott – too much change is not a good thing, ask the climate.

That being said, there have been numerous industry juggernauts, including the likes of Tom Cruise and Keanu Reeves, who’ve verbalized their distaste towards A.I. and deepfakes. Now we can add Cage’s name to that list as well.

Nicolas Cage deserves at least one more installment to his action adventure National Treasure franchise. However, even after 17 years of the release of the second installment, the updates on the movie franchise have been vehemently silent. While most fans want National Treasure to be a trilogy, Cage would need an addition of one more movie to complement that.

National Treasure has been quite a success, but Disney somewhat moved away from the movie series. While the studio put the Cage’s franchise into a coma, a new Dinesy show, National Treasure: Edge of History, was at work but not featuring Cage. After one season, the show was canceled. Now, fans finally have a positive update on the original franchise.

Bret Easton Ellis’ series at HBO is inching closer to reality. HBO has tapped Kristoffer Borgli to direct the series adaptation of the Ellis book “The Shards.”
Borgli, who directed last year’s “Dream Scenario” starring Nicolas Cage and 2022’s “Sick of Myself,” is attached to direct and serve as an executive producer on the series that’s currently in development at HBO.
Ellis published “The Shards” just last year, and the series per its official logline is “set in the early ’80s and tracks a group of privileged Los Angeles High School friends as a serial killer strikes across the city.”
But what makes “The Shards” ripe for an adaptation is that it’s a pulpy and sexy yet sprawling and unwieldy piece of fiction featuring much of Ellis’ own biography. While it follows the murders of a serial killer known as The Trawler with great detail, it also...

Nicolas Cage never went away, but he’s had a recent career resurgence. “Pig” and “The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent” were both critical successes for the star. Last year’s more commercial “Renfield” put Cage’s talent front and center as he took on the iconic, villainous role of Dracula. And the surreal, nuanced turn in “Dream Scenario” even put him back in the Oscar conversation last year, even if he ultimately missed a nomination.

Whether it’s due to Nicholas Cage’s acclaimed performance or not, the actor’s mediocre thriller The Frozen Ground has suddenly made its way to Netflix’s global top more than ten years after its theatrical release.
Currently holding the number 7 position to-date, the movie has been going strong after it initially entered the chart with the same place last week, according to FlixPatrol.
Packed with this-day big Hollywood stars like Vanessa Hudgens, John Cusack and, ironically, 50 Cent, The Frozen Ground follows Alaska Trooper Jack Halcombe, portrayed by Cage, embarking on a hunt for local serial killer Robert Hansen who is believed to have been torturing and sexually assaulting young girls for 13 years.
To get more evidence for Hansen’s arrest, Halcombe dives deep into the whole story and finds out that one victim, Cindy Paulsen, somehow managed to survive, though since then she’s turned into an...

Cage is set to star in the live-action show “Noir,” which has been ordered to series at MGM+ and Amazon Prime Video.

Nicolas Cage is going back into the Spider-Verse. Amazon, during its first-ever upfront presentation, announced that Cage will star in “Noir,” the live-action series based on the Spider-Man Noir comic series from Marvel.
Way back in early 2023, IndieWire reported that Amazon was in development on a live-action series inspired by the Spider-Man Noir character, who Cage famously portrayed in the animated “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse” as a grizzled, tortured, black-and-white noir gumshoe who also happened to be a superhero bitten by a radioactive spider. But no cast had been confirmed for the live-action show, and Amazon surprised advertisers by revealing that Cage would step back into the role, making it the first time he’s done a TV series since he filmed a pilot at the start of his career.

Big news for the "They don't make 'em like they used to" crowd: They just did and, as those who were paying attention know, it's been playing in theaters nationwide for weeks now. "Love Lies Bleeding" lies at the crossroads between a throwback '80s noir and a queer romance that's unabashedly of its time, with both aspects coming together to create an intoxicating mix that's mighty difficult to resist. Starring Kristen Stewart and Katy O'Brian as a pair of star-crossed lovers who wind up right in the crosshairs of a local crime lord, director Rose Glass' iron-pumping, steroid-injecting, and thoroughly sweat-dripping thriller is one of those movies that practically leaps off the screen and swallows audiences up in the grime and muck of its world.

In the movie Dream Scenario, starring Nicholas Cage, a biology professor named Paul Matthews starts appearing in the nightmares of random people all over the country.
None of these people understand why, nor do they know anything about Paul beyond recognizing his unusual face -- which gives them flashbacks of the terrible dream.
Paul himself is perplexed because he has not intentionally done anything to these people, nor is he a Freddy Krueger-type monster who controls a higher plane of existence.
But when Paul becomes infamous for his cameo appearances in peoples' dreams, he begins to see scorn, fear, hatred, and eventually violence coming from people who hold him personally responsible for their nightmares.
As I finished Dream Scenario, I realized this is what some right-leaning celebrities must feel like.

In the past six months, Nicolas Cage has expressed confusion over his cameo as Superman in The Flash, discussed his desire to do TV and held forth on potentially retiring from movies. This week, in an interview with Deadline at SXSW, Cage expressed indifference at the thought of returning to the comic book genre.
“Would I return to the comic book genre?” Cage asked himself, before continuing with a lukewarm, “I guess never say never.”
That’s hardly a ringing endorsement. Cage maintains there’s much more to him that a comic book geek.
“Much has been made about that. My comic book collection just goes viral quickly, exponentially, and I feel like in some ways it’s eclipsed what I’m really reading,” Cage told Deadline, “like [Nikolai Golgol’s] “The Overcoat” or Herman Hesse. It’s like I’m still stuck at 12 years old with the NyQuil and the lemon cookies and The Incredible Hulk No.

If you want to find treasure, don't look at Disney, okay? It's not there."Hopes of another 'National Treasure' flick are also remote because Cage suggested last year that he may retire from the movie business soon and only has "three or four" films left in him.He told Vanity Fair magazine: "It’s starting to solidify - I’m starting to cement my plan.

Nicolas Cage is back and this time he’s taking us into a grim, post-apocalyptic world in ‘Arcadian’. The movie’s trailer just dropped and it’s everything you’d expect from a thriller set after society’s collapse. Cage, playing Paul, is a dad trying to keep his two sons safe in a world where danger lurks as soon as the sun sets.
The story is set in a near future where life as we know it has crumbled. Paul, along with his sons Joseph, played by Jaeden Martell, and Thomas, played by Maxwell Jenkins, are facing a world filled with night-time terrors. These mysterious creatures come out at night, and according to the eerie trailer, they might be here because of the environmental mess we’ve made. Paul’s voice in the trailer hints at this, saying that these creatures might see humans as the problem, here to ‘cleanse’ the Earth.

Nicolas Cage may have purchased dinosaur bones Irl, but that doesn’t mean the actor will be going extinct anytime soon.
Cage stars in post-apocalyptic survival thriller “Arcadian” where he and his two sons Thomas (Maxwell Jenkins) and Joseph (Jaeden Martell) must fight back against mysterious creatures that prey on the dwindling human population.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has announced the presenters for the upcoming 96th Oscars on March 10.
