10 Actors About To Give Their Most Insane Performance EVER
10. Nicolas Cage - Renfield
Nicolas Cage is basically unrivalled in his penchant for giving deliriously off-the-wall performances, perhaps best exemplified by his turns in Vampire's Kiss, Face/Off, The Wicker Man, Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans, Mandy, and most recently The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent.
But Cage looks primed to outdo them all with his upcoming role in comedy-horror film Renfield, where he'll play an especially bonkers iteration of the vampire supreme himself, Count Dracula.
The hysterical trailer re-frames Dracula as an overbearing, toxic, narcissistic boss who treats his long-suffering servant Renfield (Nicholas Hoult) like absolute trash.
Cage, kitted out in an hilariously over-the-top suit and pallid vampiric make-up, also goes the added measure of rocking a wonderfully ridiculous accent. All of this makes his Vampire's Kiss character seem like a positively normal member of society by comparison.
Cage is clearly having a blast in a movie that isn't taking itself one iota too seriously, and should give the legendary actor the floor to give his wackiest - and perhaps his funniest - performance to date.
