Nicolas Cage to appear in The Flash as Superman
Miscellaneous / / May 26, 2023
He did get the part he was supposed to play back in 1998.
The Flash director Andres Muschietti spoiled one of the main cameos in the film - in interview Esquire Middle East, he reported on a cameo appearance by Nicolas Cage. The actor will play Superman.
All my life I dreamed of working with him. I hope to be able to do it again soon. He is a big fan of Superman. A true comic book fanatic.

The director added that the role of Cage is episodic, but the actor plunged into it with his head. Probably, you can see the hero in one of the universes where Barry Allen gets before Batman meets Keaton and Supergirl, played by Sasha Calle. You can see them in fresh trailer paintings.
The appearance of Nicolas Cage in this film will be very symbolic. After all, the actor is a very devoted fan of the Kryptonian hero. For a time, he owned one of the best copies of the first issue of Action Comics in 1938, where Superman was first introduced. Even his son, born in 2005, Cage called Kal-El.
In the late 1990s, Nicholas could play Superman in a Tim Burton film written by Kevin Smith. But the tape was canceled shortly before filming began. Cage had just tried on the suit.
The actor talked about his disappointment in connection with the cancellation of the project:
It was more like Superman in the 1980s, with long black samurai hair. I thought it would be a completely different kind of emo Superman, but we never got around to it.
It will be possible to see Cage in the image of Superman in June. The Flash opens worldwide on June 16th. And according to the first reviews, it will be a real hit.
