Is Cage a Christian? I sure hope he is.
“There has even been speculation that Cage is a Roman Catholic, but he has not confirmed or denied his religious beliefs.
Nicholas Cage’s faith was even questioned by his fans after the release of the Left Behind 2014 trailer during a question and answer session which involved the film’s producer and writer Paul Lalonde on Facebook. One fan in particular mentioned that Cage should not have been cast in the movie because he “was not a believer.” Lalonde replied by saying that there are many Christian actors who choose to maintain their personal faith private and that declaring who is a believer and who is not is between them and God.”
“Cage has starred in many movies that have a similar faith-driven theme, making many of his fans wonder what his true motives are for choosing these roles. For example, Cage co-starred in City of Angels with Meg Ryan, and portrayed an angel who falls in love and asks God to make him mortal so that he could understand what it feels like to love and be loved as a human.
Left BehindIn Knowing, Nicholas Cage portrays an M.I.T. professor who links a mysterious list of numbers from a time capsule to past and future disasters from around the globe. The numbers eventually point out the end of the world, and Cage sacrifices himself so that his son and his son’s female friend can help God restart the human race after the old one is destroyed. Cage also plays Johnny Blaze in Marvel Comic’s Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, and is called upon to stop the devil who is trying to take human form. The Left Behind trailer foreshadows similar apocalyptic calamities as in Knowing, and Nicholas Cage ponders religion once again in this pre-tribulation rapture remake.”
