‘The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent’ Trailer: Nicolas Cage Takes on His Craziest Role Yet

Lionsgate has released an official red band teaser trailer for The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent. Are you ready to see Nicolas Cage play Nicolas Cage? Let’s take a peek, shall we?

This might actually be my most anticipated film of 2022. I love when actors play exaggerated versions of themselves, and I bet Cage had a lot of fun playing himself.

In addition to Cage, The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent stars Pedro Pascal, Sharon Horgan, Ike Barinholtz, Jacob Scipio, Neil Patrick Harris, and Tiffany Haddish.

Plot Synopsis:

Nicolas Cage stars as… Nick Cage in the action-comedy The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent. Creatively unfulfilled and facing financial ruin, the fictionalized version of Cage must accept a $1 million offer to attend the birthday of a dangerous superfan (Pedro Pascal). Things take a wildly unexpected turn when Cage is recruited by a CIA operative (Tiffany Haddish) and forced to live up to his own legend, channeling his most iconic and beloved on-screen characters in order to save himself and his loved ones. With a career built for this very moment, the seminal award-winning actor must take on the role of a lifetime: Nick Cage.

The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent hits theaters April 22, 2022.
