Nicolas Cage claimed that he might never work with Christopher Nolan.
During a recent Q&A session with the New York Times published on Saturday, the 62-year-old actor revealed that he never received an offer from Nolan and other A-listers after he once turned down their projects.
Excluding director David O. Russell, who was the only director to reach out to him again after he declined a previous film. With Russel, Cage is working on his upcoming film, Madden.
Cage alleged that since he said no to Nolan’s 2002 film Insomnia, the director is not returning his calls.
The Longlegs actor said, “Most of them, they get their feelings hurt and don’t call you back. It’s happened a million times to me.”
Along with Nolan, Paul Thomas Anderson and Woody Allen also no longer want to work with Cage after he passed on their projects, he claimed, “They don’t call me back. The Paul Thomas Anderson movie was a very early movie. He’d shown me a short film with Philip Baker Hall — who was in ‘Hard Eight.’ And we were going to do something and it didn’t work out.”
He noted, “Anyway, David did call me, and it showed a lot of class that he would call me back and invite me again, and I didn’t want to say no to him again because I have great respect for his talent.”
