Nicolas Cage is an American actor, producer, and director who has been a prominent figure in the film industry for over three decades. Born Nicolas Kim Coppola in California in 1964, he changed his name to Cage to avoid being associated with his famous uncle, director Francis Ford Coppola.
Cage's acting career began in the early 1980s, and he quickly gained recognition for his performances in films like "Valley Girl," "Raising Arizona," and "Moonstruck." Over the years, Cage has become known for his wide range of roles, playing everything from action heroes to dark, brooding characters.
In addition to his work in feature films, Cage has also appeared in numerous commercials and television ads throughout his career. He is known for his energetic and intense performances in these commercials, often using his trademark deep voice to great effect.
One of Cage's most memorable commercial roles came in 2012, when he starred in a series of ads for the Japanese snack food Pachinko. The commercials, which were produced by director Eli Roth, featured Cage in a bizarre and surreal dreamscape, surrounded by strange creatures and fantastical imagery.
Despite his commercial success, Cage has also been the subject of much ridicule and criticism over the years, with many people poking fun at his over-the-top acting style and unusual personal life. However, Cage has never shied away from the spotlight, continuing to pursue acting roles and commercial opportunities with his characteristic zest and enthusiasm.
