NICOLAS CAGE WANTS YOU TO KNOW THAT HE LOOKS BETTER THAN HIS CHARACTER IN “DREAM SCENARIO”

Nicolas Cage turned up at the Toronto Film Festival looking EXTRA spiffy, dressed in all black, for a good reason. He plays a very ordinary family man who is bald and out of shape in his new movie Dream Scenario, and he didn’t want anyone to assume that THAT is how he looks these days. It’s a comedy and his character starts turning up in millions of strangers dreams for some reason, and it makes him an internet sensation. But after the first flush of notoriety, it all starts to go bad and those dreams become nightmares… sounds interesting.

NICOLAS CAGE DID IT AGAIN

Looking more like a harried dad than a movie star, (except for the jacket)  Nicolas Cage made a no-frills arrival at JFK last weekend with his fifth wife Riko Shibata, 27, and their baby daughter August. Nic told the LA Times “I know five (marriages) is a lot, but I think I got it right this time.” Cage has two sons, Kal-El, 16, and Weston, 31, from previous marriages. He met Riko while filming Prisoners of the Ghostland (?) in Japan. When the movie wrapped he went home to Las Vegas and missed her – so he proposed to her on Facetime. She said yes and the rest is history…

PEGGY SUE GOT MARRIED IS WORTH REVISITING

We came across this photo of young Nicolas Cage and Jim Carrey on Instagram and realized it was from a 1986 film we loved – Peggy Sue Got Married. (Named after the Buddy Holly song) Kathleen Turner starred as a woman about to be divorced who faints at her 25 year high school reunion and wakes up in 1960 when she was a high school senior. (This was filmed before Kathleen got that deep voice) Frances Ford Coppola directed the sweet and adorable story and he urged his nephew Nicolas Cage to play the part of Kathleen’s HS sweetheart. Cage’s performance can only be described as weird, but Kathleen got an Oscar nomination. Years later, when Kathleen wrote her autobiography she admitted that she wasn’t fond of Cage and accused him of having two DUIs and kidnapping a chihuahua while filming Peggy Sue. Outraged, he denied all and took her to court and won the case – she had to publicly apologize!

WESTON CAGE COPPOLA IS BETTER LOOKING THAN WE THOUGHT

Nicolas Cage’s son Weston first gained attention with his goth heavy metal band Eyes of Noctum– he was a rather dark character and had a few incidents with police plus a “mental observation.” Weston, 29, is now on his third marriage – his first two marriages resulted in two young sons. His current wife Hila just gave birth to twin daughters and posted happy photos online. Weston calls himself Weston Cage Coppola now and he is officially making a living as an actor. He’s been getting parts in more and more small movies, plus a leading role in a war movie called D-Day. Weston has intense eyes and we were pleasantly surprised to see that he is actually nice looking without all that facial hair.

NICOLAS CAGE IS PERFECT CASTING TO PLAY JOE EXOTIC

When you think about it, Nicolas Cage IS almost the perfect choice to play Joe Exotic in an eight episode series for CBS. (Just the perfect touch of crazy – right?) The script is based on a story that appeared in Texas Monthly last year (before Tiger King) about how Joe Schreibvogel amassed his private zoo in Oklahoma and feuded with Carol Baskin and Jeff Lowe. The story will also explain how ordinary Joe made himself over to become Joe Exotic. This is the first time Nicolas has done TV, but we imagine he’s very excited to play this character. Joe Exotic recently said he’d like to see Brad Pitt play himself and we think it would be too painful to watch Brad torment animals, while Nicolas can pull it off more easily…

AT LEAST NICOLAS CAGE HAS CLEAN HANDS

Hot on the heels of his quickie Las Vegas divorce, Nicolas Cage popped up with a new younger girlfriend. Nic’s last (4th) marriage happened during a boozy Vegas weekend and imploded four days later – Nic claimed he was “too drunk” to marry. His new girlfriend is Riko Shibata who looks barely legal, but is, in fact, 26 years old. She’s obviously concerned about Nic, 56, catching coronavirus, so she cleaned his hands with sanitizer after they left a New York restaurant – and before they held hands…

NICOLAS CAGE HAD A MODEST HOLIDAY

If you were wondering where Nicolas Cage spent New Year’s Eve, wonder no more. He surprised locals at a tiny pub in the rather obscure Somerset village of Baltonsborough in the UK. Nic has owned a getaway cottage in the vicinity since 2006, and sometimes slides into town to spend the holidays there. He bought a round of drinks for his delighted neighbors in the pub and posed for selfies.

FATHER AND SON REUNION: NICOLAS CAGE AND WESTON COPPOLA CAGE

For whatever reason, a photo op with Nicolas Cage and his son Weston Coppola Cage is always a delight in some way. They turned up at the premier of Nic’s new film Running with the Devil. Weston seems to have given up that heavy metal goth music for acting and he’s always ready with a smile and a raised eyebrow. He couldn’t be more different from his idiosyncratic dad. Nicolas has been anointed the Most Infamous Hollywood Spender (topping even Johnny Depp) so that’s why he films five or six action movies in remote places every year – he still spends and owes a lot of money.

WESTON CAGE COPPOLA IS NOW AN ACTOR

It’s been awhile since we’ve seen Weston Cage Coppola, but he appears to be doing well after a few tumultuous years. He’s 28 and married for the third time – he converted to Judaism for his present wife. He’s been studying several kinds of martial arts and looks ready for action. Best of all, he got his first starring role in a movie – he plays a soldier in D-Day, and has several more film roles lined up. One less thing for his father Nicolas Cage to worry about…

OSCAR WINNER NICOLAS CAGE IS NOW A PILLOW

Now HERE is the answer to your holiday gift problems! A gift for almost all ages – and anyone with a sense of humor or a love of Hollywood. An Australian company is offering a Nicolas Cage in a banana throw pillow in multiple sizes for all budgets. Actually, this gift might cheer up Cage himself because he’s not happy about the sudden realization that he is 54 and single. “I didn’t see that coming.” His third wife Alice Kim suddenly filed for divorce after 14 years of marriage two years ago. (He was previously married to Patricia Arquette and Lisa Marie Presley.)
