Nicolas Cage
I've always had an interest in Louisiana, especially New Orleans.
Nicolas Cage

At a young age, I was interested in comic books, which was really how I learnt to read. The name Cage came from a comic book character called Power Man.
Nicolas Cage
You get dinged for wanting to do a comedy, then wanting to do a big-budget action film, and then wanting to do an indie. But you can't let other people trying to label you get in the way of trying to do something artistically.
Nicolas Cage
