Happy birthday, Nicolas Cage!
The Face/Off actor turns 59 on Saturday, after a year in movies that saw Cage star in films like The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent and Butcher’s Crossing.
Cage, who along with his wife Riko welcomed daughter August Francesca Coppola Cage in September 2022, has a plenty busy year ahead of him. His first-ever Western film, The Old Way, released in theaters on Friday and the actor has geared up to take on iconic vampire character Dracula in the upcoming “modern monster tale” Renfield alongside costar Nicholas Hoult, due in theaters April 14.
All told, the hard-working actor has six upcoming projects in various stages of development, including three movies scheduled for 2024 releases, according to IMDb.
As Cage fans celebrate the prolific actor’s 59th birthday, it’s time to take a look back at his wildest purchases over the years — a series of financial decisions that led to his 2009 lawsuit against his former manager for $20 million for sending him “down a path toward financial ruin,” per Reuters.
