Nicolas Cage is taking on the role of a lifetime as Nick Cage, the Hollywood actor who has just about had enough of the industry in the new meta-action-comedy “The Unbearable Weight Of Massive Talent”.
An earlier teaser for the movie set up the premise: Cage plays a more jaded and over-the-top version of himself, who feels creatively unfulfilled and nearing financial ruin.
Cage’s agent (played by Neil Patrick Harris) convinces the star to attend the birthday party of wealthy superfan Javi (Pedro Pascal).
But Javi is more than just a “Face/Off” fan, he’s actually a dangerous criminal. When the CIA (Tiffany Haddish and Ike Barinholtz) assign Cage with bringing Javi down, he faces his greatest acting challenge yet as he taps into long-dormant acting skills to pull off his wild assignment.
