The Oscar winning actor in an interview with USA Today on a variety of topics relating to his acting career, also touched on his brief appearance in ‘The Flash Movie’. Despite having his ‘Superman Lives’ movie cancelled in the 90’s, Nicolas Cage feels “actualized” for his role in the latest movie ‘The Flash’.
The 59 years old actor is excited to finally see this character come to live on the big screens. In his own words, he said “finally seeing it on screen, was satisfying.”
“Well, I was glad I didn’t blink. For me, it was the feeling of being actualized. Even that look for that particular character, finally seeing it on screen, was satisfying. But as I said, it’s quick. If you really wanted to know what I was going do with that character, look at my performance in “City of Angels,” Nicolas Cage said.
He further added he “was supposed (to play) Clark Kent after that (in “Superman Lives”), and I was already developing this alien otherness playing this angel. That is a perfect example of the tonality you would’ve gotten for Kal-El and for Clark Kent: Clark would’ve been a little more amusing but Kal-El (had) the sensitivity and the goodness and the vulnerability and all those feelings that were kind of angelic and also terrifying.”
Nicolas Cage is not only an actor, he is also a film producer. For his hard work and contributions to the film industry, he was inducted into the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1998. Cage also received a honorary Doctorate in Fine Arts by California State University, Fullerton.
