9 Actors Who Died TWICE Horribly The Same Exact Way In Different Movies

9. Nicolas Cage - Bound & Burned Alive (The Wicker Man & Kick-Ass)

It shouldn't surprise anyone that Nicolas Cage has died many, many times over the course of his career, though beyond your garden variety shootings and stabbings there's one particularly horrifying death the actor has performed twice - bound and burned alive.

In his ill-advised 2006 remake of the horror classic The Wicker Man, Cage's protagonist Edward Malus is killed when the villainous Pagan cult seals him inside a giant wicker effigy and sets it on fire. Malus is unable to do anything but watch as the structure burns to a crisp while he's inside it.

A few years later Cage acted out a rather similar demise in the brilliantly brutal superhero movie Kick-Ass.

As the Batman-aping hero Big Daddy, he's eventually set on fire by thugs employed by kingpin Frank D'Amico (Mark Strong), all while bound to a chair and with no means to save himself.

Unlike The Wicker Man we actually see the outcome of the fire, with Big Daddy expiring from his severe burns in front of his daughter Hit-Girl (Chloë Grace Moretz).
