This is a pivotal moment in Nicolas Cage’s career. Once a gold-plated blockbuster icon, he crashed to Earth many years ago in a flurry of financial mismanagement and poor career choices. You just have to look at his IMDb page for proof of the latter. Did you watch Inconceivable? Mom and Dad? Southern Fury? Vengeance: A Love Story? The Humanity Bureau? No, of course you didn’t, and they were only the movies he made in 2017.
Slowly but surely, though, Cage has been working his way back to us, either with fun little parts in big movies or acclaimed turns in smaller fare. The Cage comeback continues, with news that he has signed on to star as Dracula in Chris McKay’s Renfield,...

Dolph Lundgren will executive produce “Dolph,” a documentary film about the Swedish actor’s own life, chronicling his rise to becoming one of Hollywood’s most treasured action stars.
Lundgren is most well known among movie watchers for his turns as the Soviet boxer Ivan Drago in “Rocky IV” and “Creed II” and his performance as He-Man in 1987’s “Masters of the Universe.” The actor has accrued an impressive catalog of screen credits over his 36-year career, including the “Expendables” franchise, the “Universal Soldier” series and 1989’s “The Punisher.” On the horizon, Lundgren will reprise his “Aquaman” role as King Nereus in the DC Comics sequel “Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom.”

You know, Nicolas Cage gets a lot of criticism for acting in straight-to-digital movies these days. But for every Vengeance: A Love Story or The Humanity Bureau, he sprinkles in little seen gems like Mandy and Color Out of Space as well as a memorable performance in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. He’s also set to play Joe Exotic, so at least he still tries to challenge himself. Bruce Willis, on the other hand, has officially thrown in the proverbial towel.
In the past nine years, he’s starred in 20 movies that have either had a limited theatrical release or skipped the cinema and went straight to your living room. Some of the names of these films include Precious Cargo, Marauders and Once Upon a Time in Venice. And before you think otherwise, that last one has absolutely zero connection to Quentin Tarantino.

"What are you experiencing?" Minds Eye has released an official trailer for indie action-thriller Distorted, the latest from director Rob W. King, who also made the very cheesy sci-fi film The Humanity Bureau with Nicolas Cage. This film stars Christina Ricci as a woman with biopolar disorder who moves into a "smart apartment" with her husband. But they soon suspect something is up, and realize that the owner is using the residents as unwitting guinea pigs for a "synthetic telepathy'" brainwashing plot. John Cusack co-stars, including Brendan Fletcher, Vicellous Shannon, Nicole Anthony, Oliver Rice, Gigi Jackman, and Maja Milkovich. This seems like it was a cool pitch at first, but the film itself looks boring and forgettable. Here's the first official trailer (+ poster) for Rob W. King's Distorted, direct from YouTube: A 32-year-old woman suffering from bipolar disorder comes to suspect the proprietor of the state-of-the-art "smart apartment" she...

The actor, who won an Oscar in 1987 for Raising Arizona before going on to become one of the biggest box office stars of the 90s thanks to blockbusters like Con Air and Face/Off, has reinvented himself in recent years with a return to independent films. The artier fare has allowed him to explore his eccentric side.

Though not so long ago nearly every Nicolas Cage movie was a big-budget, wide-release affair, these days his movies are mostly so low-profile you might be forgiven for not knowing he still makes ’em — let alone that he’s done some of his best-ever work very recently. The gonzo displays of blackly comedic quasi-horror pics “Mom and Dad” and “Mandy” fall into that category (though recent thriller “Looking Glass” served no one particularly well), and new Canadian feature “The Humanity Bureau” is none too shabby a showcase, either.
This dystopian road movie is very specifically set in a near-future U.S., but in character couldn’t be more Canuck: more interested in character dynamics and shaggy humor than spectacle, more picaresque than action-driven. Still, director Rob W. King and screenwriter Dave Schultz’s engaging effort has enough standard genre elements to satisfy more open-minded sci-fi fans, and its political-allegory angle...

"Whatever Kross is planning, make sure he doesn't succeed." How about some Nicolas Cage cheesy action for a post-Oscars detox? Qme Entertainment & Minds Eye Entertainment have debuted the official trailer for The Humanity Bureau, a thrilling sci-fi adventure about survival, truth and the price of freedom. Set in a post-apocalyptic America, the film stars Nicolas Cage as a caseworker for a government agency called the Humanity Bureau exiles members of society deemed unproductive and banishes them to a colony known as New Eden. The full cast includes Sarah Lind, Hugh Dillon, Vicellous Shannon, Kurt Max Runte, and Jakob Davies. Usually I'm always up for some sci-fi, but this looks bad, really bad. The VFX look bad, the story is half-baked nonsense, the dialogue is terrible, it's barely sci-fi anyway. I'm not surprised this is a Nicolas Cage movie, he's in nothing but junk these days (except, maybe, Mom & Dad). You've been warned.

At this point, Nicolas Cage movies fall into a few basic categories. You’ve got your occasional big-budget projects (Type One), your quirky indie things (Type Two), and then you’ve got those movies where Cage stands on a soundstage somewhere in Eastern Europe and points guns at people (Type Three). Connoisseurs of the latter category are in luck today, with Deadline reporting that Cage has signed on for 211, a new, Bulgaria-shot bank heist movie from director York Alec Shackleton. Cage will play a cop trying to stop a bank robbery, presumably through a combination of fascinating acting choices, bizarre hair, and shouting.
The actor currently has a Cage-standard ton of movies in the works; his recent projects include The Humanity Bureau (Type Two), Vengeance: A Love Story (Type Three), and the upcoming “killer parents” thriller Mom And Dad (also Three, but probably with a greater than average amount ...

Nicolas Cage doesn’t hurt for work. The Academy Award-winner starred in five movies last year, whether you saw them or not (even as a Cage devotee, I only ended up seeing two), and the prolific actor already has a whopping six set to arrive later this year, including the already-released Arsenal from earlier this month. But the rage inside Cage doesn’t go down quietly. He figured out his next project, the bank heist drama 211, which starts filming in March in Bulgaria.
Written and directed by York Alex Shackleton, 211 follows a good cop (Cage) trying to dismantle a recent bank heist. Seems simple enough, right? 211, by the way, is police code for robbery in progress. It finds Cage on the other side of the law this time, as he recently found himself portraying a quirky bank robber in last year’s overlooked dark comedy The Trust, which was one...

The Humanity Bureau has made room in its ranks for Nicolas Cage, according to Deadline, now that the Dog Eat Dog star has signed on for the near-future thriller just as production gears up to begin in British Columbia later this week.
Directed by Rob King, news of the casting coup comes hand-in-hand with confirmation that Sarah Lind, Jakob Davies and Hugh Dillon have also climbed on board.
Set in the not-so-distant future – the year 2030, to be precise – The Humanity Bureau takes place in a world wracked by the devastating effects of climate change. In the fallout, part of the American Midwest slides into a crippling recession, forcing the government to found the titular agency to identify unproductive members of society and banish them to a colony known as New Eden.

His cinematic do-gooding isn’t over yet, as he’s just signed on to lead a sci-fi thriller about the dangers of global warming. Rob King’s The Humanity Bureau will star Cage as an agent of the titular organization, which has the power to banish “unproductive” members of society from within its non-ravaged confines. As Kross, Cage will be a company man at first, who remains “impartial” while he goes around deeming the worth of others. Luckily, Kross has a change of heart after investigating an appeal by a single mother and her son. He then goes from model employee—who, if you think about it, would be a horrible person in general—to whistleblower. That...
