Cage has a number of TV projects lined up, including a new take on the story of Tiger King star Joe Exotic which will air on Amazon Prime Video, in which he will play Exotic.
Earlier this year, the actor reflected on his career to date in a Reel Talk interview with NME, acknowledging how nostalgia might contribute to the way fans approach his career
“There seems to be something happening on the Internet with people who have followed my career,” Cage said. “Some of the movies are returning in a way that I think is making them more interesting, which I’m thankful for.”
He added: “It’s truly something that I see as good news. But I’m not nostalgic about my early work and I’m always trying to feel where I can go and how I can go forward.”
History of Swear Words will air on Netflix on January 5, 2021.
