Nicolas Cage Trivia

Overview

There's only one Nicolas Cage, and long may he keep filling our screens with every kind of movie imaginable. After four decades in the business, his resume really is that vast. When he's not running around with a chainsaw, he's singing Elvis songs for David Lynch. Cage has proven a comedic genius for the Coen brothers, dabbled with Marvel in two different ways despite never appearing in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, wordlessly fought demonic animatronics, swapped faces with John Travolta, gotten speedy before the Fast and Furious saga existed and taken to the skies with criminals, too.

Oh, and he's acted opposite himself in Adaptation — and also played himself in The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent.

Naming Nicolas Cage films is almost as fun as watching them. Prepare to utter plenty at Sydney's latest excuse to worship an acting talent like no other. If you know which famous director Cage is related to, which flick gave him his first big-screen gig, how many Oscars he has, the number of Razzie nominations he's notched up, and his IRL ties to Elvis and Superman, rejoice — Nicolas Cage Trivia is for you.

Taking place from 6.30pm on Wednesday, April 5 at The Edinburgh Castle in Pitt Street, this quiz isn't for casual Cage fans. That said, there's nothing casual about adoring the man who ran around thinking he's a bloodsucker in Vampire's Kiss, and will next play Dracula in Renfield.

Entry is free, with all those times you've rewatched Con Air, Face/Off, Moonstruck and Mandy about to come in mighty handy.
