Cast Nicolas Cage for a Marvel Movie Comeback...

[jtd]

You know, the more I think of this, the more I like it. Although Nick Cage can been in some stinker movies...he's been in some really terrific ones as well. And he gets appreciation for being one of us, a comic collector.

I think it'd be something pretty sweet to see...him coming back to prominence in a Marvel role. Maybe a villain? Or a character with a fallen-from-grace story. Or redemption story?

Mephisto? Nightmare?

I could get behind this.

[williamtheday]

How about as...Swarm!

[Buried Alien]

He'd be a great Frank Castle/Punisher.

Buried Alien (The Fastest Post Alive!)

[Vakanai]

I'd still like him to come back as Ghost Rider again with a script/take that actually does justice to the character. Didn't the Marvel Studios get the rights back to that character?

This could work, I could definitely see this since I doubt the MCU is ever going to acknowledge the Netflix series as being in continuity.

Since they're doing the new GHost RIder series around Robbie, Cage appearing as the older Ghost Rider Johnny Blaze might be kinda cool. He can be a mentor or whatever. That's more the TV series rather than the movie, but its the first thing I thought of.

[Immortal Weapon]

He would have made a fine Justin Hammer.

100% in agreement with you.
Cage could pull that one off with his eyes closed.

[j9ac9k]

Cast him as "head in a jar" Silvermane.

Or Moleman.

[BeastieRunner]

I would've said Black Tom Cassidy till he showed up in Deadpool 2.

Now ... Mephisto.

[BlueandGold]

I would cast him as Foolkiller.

[CliffHanger2]

Absorbing Man with cgi muscles.

[AJBopp]

I like Cage in a few things, but I struggle with a Marvel role I'd put him in. Silvermane perhaps. Could even possibly have seen him as Vulture if they'd gone with a more comics-faithful version. Otherwise I think keep him doing voice work. Maybe cast him as Infinity or something.

[hulahulk]

Imagine an Alpha Flight movie with him as Sasquatch! Think Ruffalo Hulk, but with tan fur!

[Zero Hunter]

Nic Cage is just too far gone at this point. Let him stick to the direct to video market where he has lived for the last decade doing 5 movies a year no one watches.

[Hypestyle]

not interested in him as a hero. I enjoyed Ghost Rider, though.

Nightmare or Mephisto would be nice. But not as a campy performance. I would want this played straight.
