Nicolas Cage is a well-known American actor and producer, famous for his versatile and often eccentric performances in a wide variety of films. He was born on January 7, 1964, in Long Beach, California. Cage is part of the famous Coppola family—his uncle is director Francis Ford Coppola, and he changed his name from Nicolas Coppola to avoid nepotism in his career.

Cage's breakout role came in the 1980s, and he gained widespread recognition for his work in films like Moonstruck (1987) and Raising Arizona (1987). However, he reached even greater fame in the 1990s with movies like Con Air (1997), Face/Off (1997), and National Treasure (2004). He won an Academy Award for Best Actor for his role in Leaving Las Vegas (1995), where he portrayed a suicidal alcoholic.

In addition to his wide range of film roles, Cage is known for his unique acting style, which can range from understated to over-the-top. He has gained a cult following for some of his more eccentric performances in films like The Wicker Man (2006) and Mandy (2018).

Despite his critical success, Cage has faced financial difficulties due to his extravagant lifestyle, leading to a series of high-profile roles to help pay off his debts. Despite these ups and downs, he remains a beloved and iconic figure in Hollywood.
