Nicolas Cage to Star in A24 Comedy DREAM SCENARIO
Nicolas Cage is fresh of his return to big screen comedy with this spring’s blockbuster The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, in which he played a fictionalized version of himself opposite a Nick Cage super-fan played by Pedro Pascal. It was previously reported that next year, we will see him in the horror comedy Renfield, in which he is taking on the iconic role of Dracula.
Now we have heard that Cage has taken on a new comedic role in the upcoming film Dream Scenario, from A24. Kristoffer Borgli (Sick of Myself) is writing and directing the movie, and Ari Aster and Lars Knudsen will produce under their Square Peg banner.
Other than it being described as a comedy, project details are being kept under wraps.
Jacob Jaffke and Tyler Campellone will produce alongside A24, Aster and Knudsen. This marks the fourth collaboration between Square Peg and A24 after Hereditary, Midsommar and the upcoming Disappointment Blvd. starring Joaquin Phoenix.
In the meantime, Cage will be starring in the western thriller Butcher’s Crossing later this year, where he plays a buffalo hunter.
