2009 - The Year of... Nicholas Cage?

[Jon Starr]

So I was surfing around imdb for some stuff. Doing an essay on rumble fish to be specific, when I came across Nicholas Cage's imdb page.

Now I know some people get a lot of big roles at the same time, but Nicholas cage has been around for a while now. Yes he is a big name (even if not a good actor), but he would get maybe 3 big movies a year at best, which for a lot of actors is amazing.

But looking at his recent list it's... surprising.

1. The Dance (2010) (announced) .... Billy 'The Kid' Roth
2. Electric God (2009) (announced)
3. Amarillo Slim (2009) (pre-production)
4. Riot (2009) (pre-production) .... Karl Rix
   ... aka John Carpenter's Riot (USA: complete title)
5. The Sorcerer's Apprentice (2009) (pre-production)
6. Season of the Witch (2010) (filming)
7. Astro Boy (2009) (filming) (voice) .... Dr. Tenma
8. Kick-Ass (2009) (filming) .... Damon Macready
9. G-Force (2009) (post-production) (voice) .... Speckles
10. Knowing (2009) (post-production) .... Ted Myles
11. Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans (2009) (post-production)

Funny, I thought 2012 was the year the world ends, not 2009...
