Nicolas Cage plays Charlie Kaufman as Charlie Kaufman tries to make a film about his attempt to make a biopic about Nicolas Cage.
Damn you! I was just about to suggest "Being Nicholas Cage", directed by Charlie Kaufman. I like the twist you've added. P.S.: In case there are some Nicholas Cage fans out there who haven't seen it yet, go watch Werner Herzog's Bad Lieutenant - Port of Call: New Orleans (2009). It shows a bat-**** crazy, drug induced, sleep-deprived bad cop Cage. I don't there are many other actors out there who could have filled said role better than him.
what about a film where nicolas cage plays a blind warrior monk who fights with a bo staff and he must recover the ancient dagger of the goose his brotherhood let fall into the hands of insidious german terrorists who are led by tim allen doing an awesome german accent.
how about a movie where nicolas cage is an expert deep sea diver investigating the wreck of the lusitania and he unravels a series of clues that lead to one of the biggest coverups in history
nicolas cage stars in a film where he runs a pet shelter and takes in abused dogs and nurses them back to health and teaches them to love once more and along the way he meets the woman of his dreams who just so happens to run an underground s&m torture club and in the end he has to choose between her and the dogs
okay so say nicolas cage is the chief food safety inspector at a planters dry roasted peanut factory and one day a tainted batch of peanuts slips through unnoticed and a bunch of people die and their families sue him and he is defended in court by a lawyer who has never lost a case and he sure as hell isn't going to lose this one
thank you. i really hope the first one gets made because i bet tim allen could do a great hans gruber.
how about if nicolas cage plays meriadoc brandybuck in the lord of the rings spinoff, "merry". here we see merry's descent into alcoholism and drug addiction as he longs for the days of the great war and that feeling that he was part of something.
nicolas cage stars as galactus in the new warner brothers picture, "galactus". here the great nicolas cage finally uncovers the softer, more vulnerable side of galactus. galactus isn't evil, he's just really, really hungry.
