The latest trailer for Nicolas Cage’s new movie “The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent” is awesome.

The plot of the film, according to the trailer’s YouTube description, is as follows:

Nicolas Cage stars as… Nick Cage in the action-comedy The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent. Creatively unfulfilled and facing financial ruin, the fictionalized version of Cage must accept a $1 million offer to attend the birthday of a dangerous superfan (Pedro Pascal). Things take a wildly unexpected turn when Cage is recruited by a CIA operative (Tiffany Haddish) and forced to live up to his own legend, channeling his most iconic and beloved on-screen characters in order to save himself and his loved ones. With a career built for this very moment, the seminal award-winning actor must take on the role of a lifetime: Nick Cage.

Does that sound interesting? Well, just wait until you see the trailer because it’s downright incredible. Give it a watch below.

This movie looks like it might honestly be the most entertaining thing Cage has ever done, and I can’t wait to see it.

The man used to make massive hits, he dropped off in a major way but he’s now leaning into the fact he’s very self-aware of how his career has gone.

If you don’t find that interesting on at least a basic level, I don’t know what to tell you.

Despite the fact that it’s easy for some people to hate on Cage, there’s no doubt he’s a talented actor. We’re talking about the man responsible for giving us two “National Treasure” movies and “The Rock.”

Now, he’s going back to his roots while also poking a bit of fun at himself. What’s not to love?

You can check out “The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent” starting April 22.
