With some actors, having them their sign on to a movie is like a stamp of approval, but with Nicolas Cage it’s gotten to the point where his being part of a film is more likely to make people treat it with suspicion. However we’ll be generous about Tokarev, which Deadline reports Cage has signed on for.
Spanish director Paco Cabezas (Neon Flesh) is due to make his American debut with the movie, which is about ‘Maguire, a former crook trying to find his daughters kidnappers and avoid falling back into his past.’
It’s a passable enough premise, but you never know with Cage, who’s made an awful lot of crap in the last few years, mixed in with a few very good movies. There’s no news on when the film might shoot.
