We chat with the incredibly versatile Nic Cage about stepping into the Western genre with TheOldWay, how he finds unique voices for his characters, and Spider-Man Noir's current hiatus:
New Western The Old Way follows former gunslinger Colton Briggs down a dark road of revenge. Colton Briggs has found a peaceful life, moving past his days as a notorious gunslinger in favor of becoming a family man. However, when his past comes calling in the form of the outlaw son of a man he killed many years ago, his wife is the one to pay the price. Following this horrible tragedy, Colton and his daughter, Brooke , set out to avenge the matriarch of their family at any cost.
Nicolas Cage: Yeah. I'm with you about the Western. I grew up watching Once Upon a Time in the West, and my favorite western performance is Charles Bronson as Harmonica. I was always fascinated by his ability to convey so much and do so little. And there was an enigmatic, spooky quality to that character. When they sent me this script, that's immediately who I thought of. And I like characters that raise more questions than answers.
Nicolas Cage: I was really in awe of Ryan. I thought she brought so much pathos, complexity, depth, maturity at her age to this character of Brooke. And it's not an easy ask to play a character that's approaching almost a robot, and then still have an audience feel for you. And I was in awe of her talent. And I felt paternal towards her, and I wanted her to be safe. But she's a very capable young lady.
The idea is to never stay comfortable, and that's what keeps people going, I think. I even asked David Bowie once, "How did you do it? How did you keep reinventing yourself?" And the wise man said, "Well, I just never got comfortable with what I was doing." And I took those words to heart. So when I have a project in front of me, I have to know I can bring something. But to answer your question, where does it really come from? And that's also a bit of a mystery.
