Nicolas Cage in Next
Imagine that you can see two minutes into the future. You know whats about to happen and you still have the power to change it. Thats the concept that fuels the new Nicolas Cage starrer Next (opening April 27 throughout San Diego). Jessica Biel and Julianne Moore co-star.
Nicolas Cage plays Frank Cadillac whos actually a man named Cris Johnson. Cadillac is his Vegas stage name and as Cadillac he has a lame lounge act doing magic and making meager predictions about the future. Off stage, Johnson claims he just wants to get by, avoid fame and pass off his gift as some kind of parlor trick. He describes the situation as the real deal masquerading as an act. He claims that he has to pretend that its a trick because if people knew that he genuinely could see into the future, they couldnt handle it and he would be treated as a freak.
