Nicolas Cage has been a household name in Hollywood for decades, having acted in over 100 movies (CBS News). In a recent interview with 60 Minutes, Cage shared that he never phones it in and still cares about every role he takes on (CBS News). Despite his success, some feel that the interview came twenty years too late and ignored important aspects of Cage’s personal life, such as his numerous marriages and legal issues (Showbiz411).
Currently, Cage stars in the film “Renfield” alongside Nicholas Hoult. In the movie, Cage channels Hollywood legend while playing Dracula (NBC10 Philadelphia). Actor Ben Schwartz has described working with Cage as “awesome,” but notes that the veteran actor can be intimidating on set (Times of India).
Cage’s versatility has allowed him to expand into the horror genre, and according to Screen Rant, he played Dracula to perfection in “Renfield” and could take on other Universal Monsters just as easily. Casey Chong even wrote about the five essential Nicolas Cage horror movies, proving the actor’s ability to excel in various roles (Flickering Myth).
Despite his success, Cage has also faced challenges in his career. He recently reflected on a scene in “Vampire’s Kiss” where he had to eat cockroaches, stating that he will never do it again (Fox News).
Overall, Nicolas Cage remains a prominent figure in Hollywood with a career spanning decades and an ability to excel in various genres.
