According to Deadline, the movie follows a creatively unfulfilled and bankrupt version of Nicolas Cage after he is forced to accept $1 million to attend the birthday party of Javi, his number one fan and Mexican drug kingpin played by Pedro Pascal.
It is no secret that Nicolas Cage has had his fair share of money issues over the years, and now it appears that there will soon be a fictionalized version of the iconic actor’s cash woes in the upcoming meta action-comedy The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent.
What starts out as a harmless night out quickly turns into something more when Cage, under the guidance of Tiffany Haddish’s government agent, attempts to take down the criminal organization once and for all by channeling his most beloved and over-the-top on-screen characters.
