Nicolas Cage to play Nicolas Cage in a movie about...Nicolas CageThe main character, Nicolas Cage, is at his wit’s end trying to land a role in the latest Tarantino flick, while attempting to patch things up with his teenage daughter and overcome mountains of debt.
The fictional Cage is constantly having internal conversations with a ’90s movie star version of himself, who ridicules his flailing film career.
Things start to turn up when he meets a billionaire from Mexico, who’s a fan of his stuff and has some projects he wants to talk to Cage about. But, in a “National Treasure”-like twist, the CIA informs Cage that the billionaire is a drug kingpin, and they’d like Cage’s help trying to bust him.
