Nicolas Cage Goes Nuts for Mandy
How happy you made me, oh Mandy. Well you came and you gave without taking, but I sent you away, oh Mandy. And you kissed me and stopped me from shaking. And I need you today, oh Mandy!
We all need a little Mandy in our lives (it worked for Angel), but seriously… any movie that brings more Nicolas Cage in our lives is okay with us!
According to Deadline Cage is set to star in action thriller Mandy, directed by Beyond the Black Rainbow helmer Panos Cosmatos.
The project is produced by SpectreVision’s Daniel Noah, Josh C. Waller, and Elijah Wood; XYZ Films’ Nate Bolotin; and Umedia’s Adrian Politowski and is exec produced by Nick Spicer, Lisa Whalen, Todd Brown, Martin Metz, Peter Bevan, Christopher Figg, and Robert Whitehouse with Umedia and Piccadilly Pictures financing.
The film is currently in pre-production and set to shoot this summer in Belgium. XYZ Films is handling worldwide sales.
Mandy is set in the primal wilderness of 1983 where Red Miller, a broken and haunted man, hunts an unhinged religious sect who slaughtered the love of his life.
“Panos is one of the most vital young filmmakers alive, a pop-culture Kubrick in the making,” said Noah, SpectreVision’s Head of Development. “Nicolas Cage is a veritable god to those of us who grew up watching his classic performances. Bringing these two together for this surrealist, heavy-metal-soaked story of battle axes and demon bikers is unfathomably exciting to us.”
