Nicolas Cage is all about his family. The actor puts his kids above everything else, even turning down massive roles in movies like The Lord of the Rings and The Matrix because they would have meant being away from home for too long. For Cage, that wasn’t worth it. He chose to stay close to his kids, preferring bedtime stories over Hollywood blockbusters.

Nicolas Cage and Jared Leto found themselves seated together in animated conversation at the Golden Globes on Sunday.
While both Cage and Leto donned black suits, the styles were different. Leto opted to wear a simple, loose black blazer and white slacks. Cage, on the other hand, wore a gold-printed black blazer over a satin dress shirt and bowtie.

Nicolas Cage is a character, and he's played some of our favorite characters to date. He's also been playing the role of dad for over 30 years. Nicolas has two sons, the first of whom was born in 1990, and now he's even taken on a bigger gig: grandpa to his four grandchildren. Nicolas's sons have grown up on Hollywood film sets and with famous friends, but they still lead fairly low-key lives, all things told. Nicolas himself doesn't have an Instagram to share pictures of his kids, but we do catch glimpses of the boys on red carpets and at events.
In 2022, Nicolas's family grew even more with the birth of his first daughter with wife Riko Shibata, whom he married in February 2021. Of parenting a girl after raising boys, Nicolas told Et in January, "It's a new adventure." In general, the "Renfield" star is...

The actor who spawned a thousand internet mashups talks turning to his subconscious for help, his very public mistakes and the greatest piece of direction he has ever received
When people tell Nicolas Cage that he has appeared in their dreams, he gets a little jumpy. “I’m like: ‘Well, I hope I behaved,’” he says in his unmistakably emphatic drawl. “You wanna make sure you didn’t do something horrific.” Dreams are on his mind today because of his new film, the Ari Aster-produced black comedy Dream Scenario, which he has phoned from Perth, Australia, to discuss. It is early evening there, and the 59-year-old actor is in a rented beach-front house with his fifth wife, Riko Shibata, and their one-year-old daughter, August, named after Cage’s late father. “It’s lovely,” he sighs contentedly as August wails in the background. “I have a nice view of the...

At the Toronto International Film Festival world premiere of his new film ‘Dream Scenario’ which sees Cage’s character star in other people’s dreams, the actor spoke about the recurring figure he looks forward to seeing in his own dreams, reports People magazine.
“I always like it when my father shows up,” Cage said at the event. “I haven’t seen him in person since he passed on. So when he shows up, that’s always a good thing.”
Coppola, whose younger brother is ‘The Godfather’ trilogy director Francis Ford Coppola, died from a heart attack at age 75 in 2009, according to his obituary.

Los Angeles, April 25 (Ians) Actor Nicolas Cage has cited a real estate crash for his multi-million dollar debt.
Landing at the centre of reports he had blown his $150 million fortune, owed the IRS $6.3 million in property taxes, and was taking every acting role he could in order to get out of debt, the 59-year-old has now stressed he never filed for bankruptcy amid his financial struggles, reports aceshowbiz.com.

Journalist replied, “That had to be a dark period for you.” Dad-of-three Nicolas – who in September 2022 had his first child with his fifth wife, Riko Shibata, 28, a daughter called August Francesca Coppola Cage – added, “It was dark,...

Olivia Wilde has responded to Shia LeBeouf’s claim that he wasn’t fired from Don’t Worry Darling – despite the director saying he was.
Last month, Wilde said that she had let the actor go from the project in order to create a “safe, trusting environment” on set.
The actor-director claimed that Labeouf’s acting process “was not conducive to the ethos” that she demands in her productions, following claims that lead star Florence Pugh had grown uncomfortable with his presence.
Labeouf immediately took umbrage with the quotes, sharing an email he sent to Wilde in which he said he quit the project, along with sharing a leaked video message from Wilde that he said disputed her claims.
However, Vanity Fair now reports that the video was sent before Pugh had expressed her doubts about Labeouf as a co-star.

Ricky Martin has sued his nephew for attempting to “assassinate” his reputation by falsely accusing him of sexual abuse.
The “Livin’ La Vida Loca” singer is seeking 20m (£17.38m) in damages from his 21-year-old nephew, who claimed – then recanted allegations of – incest and harassment against Martin.
In July, a judge in Puerto Rico granted Dennis Yadiel Sanchez’s request for a temporary restraining order against his uncle, after he claimed Martin had been seen “hanging around his residence on at least three occasions” after their alleged break-up.
At the time, Martin said the accusations against him were “not only untrue” but “disgusting”.
Martin’s nephew voluntarily withdrew his allegations on 21 July, and the case against him was dismissed.
As per his lawsuit, filed in Puerto Rico on Wednesday (7 September), Martin claims he has been “persecuted, besieged, harassed, stalked and extorted” by his “maladjusted” nephew for economic gain.

Eminem has admitted that his loved ones were concerned he might have permanent brain damage after he suffered a drug overdose
The rapper – real name Marshall Mathers – has previously struggled with addiction to prescription painkillers and in 2007 took a near-fatal overdose of methadone that left him in hospital.
Appearing on his manager Paul Rosenberg’s podcast Paul Pod: Curtain Call 2 on Wednesday (7 September), Eminem said that “it took a long time for my brain to start working again” after the incident.
Rosenberg explained: “You literally were coming off of an overdose, and they had to sort of stabilise you with a few medications. And some of them took you a minute to adjust to – let’s just leave it at that. So, you’re learning how to rap again almost literally, right?”
