Vigo actually went to school near my school. Our schools competed. Like, dude I could have met him if he did sportsball shit.
Rhase
(Actually, more accurately, if he did track. Lol I never did sportsballs. :c )

While Cage is often mocked for his choice in roles, he is also renowned as an actor for his intensity and dedication to a characterization.
myrrlyn
I hear he has back problems from carrying so many movies
Zurkive
Ever seen Left Behind? Yeah, neither did anyone else. Several critics bagged on every actor in it BUT Nicholas Cage. He made it worthwhile.
SingingMeAndCthulioDownByRlyehFhtagn
You sound like ActualJamesLipton
ltax
I don't mock him for his choice in roles, I mock him because I think his acting is terrible.
BatSharkRepellent
He's so dedicated to his character he plays the exact same in every movie.
dembonz00
He was amazing in Kick Ass.
Cake3k
He was. Lord of War too!
CarreraCowboy
Gone in 60 Seconds remake is still one of my favorites and the reason why I'm always a fan of him. Eleanor...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVvT93-kyOU nothing beats the cage
GINGIVITISSS
It's funny because he was almost cast as Aragorn.
CatBlaster5000
As one that didn't particularly care much for LOTR, I would be interested to watch his terrible acting in that role.
chloramphenicolderivative
I love Cage's movies, but this would not have been a good cast.
DarthW33zy
Fuck that shit! Return of the King would not have won any Oscars if that happened.
InboxMeYourBeards
Don't you dare say that, I don't care if it's true!
Talmorean
Stewart Townsend was cast, then they fired him before he got to NZ. He was too young looking.
ItsOkayItsOfficial
No, he'd already been in NZ for a couple months with the rest but was fired before principle shooting. Got fucked over, but for the better
SeriouslyILoveCake
Stuart Townsend WAS cast as Aragorn for 3 days of filming and then got replaced for being too young.

Nicolas Cage is awesome in "Joe". He could do Aragorn in LOTR, I can certify.
mintcranberry
Praise the lord baby jesus and all the gods in seven heavens that he was replaced.

TeamRocketBlastOffAtTheSpeedOfLightSurrenderNowOrPrepareToFight
That would have been a huge mistake. Thank god that he didnt.
Aaronb1138
I hope that this was one of those Hollywood false flags, to be debunked later by Snopes or in various memoirs.
chuddddd
He was also considered for Ironman and also Superman if I'm correct
BatSharkRepellent
The parallel verse where this happened is a very, very different place right now.
abioticchef
Vigo only took the role because his son loved the books.
AllHailTheDramaLlama
Then I thank the Valar for his son.
toospoon
I saw that in the bonus DVDs. His son is really overweight.
Strandforce
TIL too much
ZeGermansAreComingJaaa
he was WHAT????? i need more info!
Hessuu
they have also thought about casting him as Tony Stark
ZeGermansAreComingJaaa
this just keeps getting better and better...
ReaktorNo4
He was offered the role but he declined due to family reasons. Daniel Day-Lewis and Russell Crowe were also offered the role but declined.
jalex1215
I'd love to see Daniel Day-Lewis getting into character and never getting out for those movies.
NotSoSmartAlek
Wait, I thought Cage wasn't allowed to decline any roles he was given, because of taxes? Or was that some other actor?
nitwitblubberoddmentweak
oh god, is that true?! thank the good lard up above that didn't happen

I'm glad they found the real Aragorn and didn't have to get an actor to play him.
Meadmug
This deserves more upvotes.
amadoraisnowinvadingthisinternetzwebsitetoo
I don't dislike him as an actor, but it would've been just way too weird if he was cast.
GuyWhoMightSayQue
I just saw outcast (that crussade movie thing) and holy ass he played bad. But i don't Think he was bad in lord of war
amadoraisnowinvadingthisinternetzwebsitetoo
Haven't seen neitherof those xD I think I only saw him in national treasure and a few older movies that go on tv from time to time.
sharkbate
Thank GOD that didn't work out
AWdeV
IT WOULDN'T HAVE WORKED OUT IF HE GOT THE ROLE EITHER HAW HAW HAW

The character is kind of in line with his acting. I could imagine him as an OK Aragorn, but Mortensen hit it out of the park.
SheLookedLevel18
You just thanked Nic Cage. Check.
CatBlaster5000
I bet it would have been interesting.
FoxyEllie
Honest question: Why all the Cage hate? I find that I enjoy a lot of his movies.
NucularCrisitunity
Me too. I recently watched "Face Off" again. Cage is great. Although Travolta is even better IF he plays a villain!
whateversomethingdifferentiguessfkit
Wicker Man. National Treasure. Ghost Rider. There is no difference between his characters in these movies. He just plays himself.
sharkbate
I just don't love him. He would have been TERRIBLE in this role.
KissThemForMe
Even Ghost Rider?
FFKonoko
...actually, I really enjoyed Ghost Rider 2.
Glumerlink
I dunno, Nicholas cage could have been a great aragon. He's super versatile as an actor

Not after what he did to Ghost Rider. That guy can take his jelly beans and stuff it.

I'm detecting sarcasm here, lots of it.
DuggFunnie
He's Schrodinger's Actor: simultaneously the best and worst until observed.
kibateo
It's like that episode from Community about Nicholas Cage
ISuspectJimHalpert
So true! E.g. The Wicker Man...he sucked. But 'Leaving Las Vegas'? One of my favourite performances. I swear he does it on purpose.
FelipeRios
I'm subbed to /r/Showerthoughts too
OobedoobScoobyDoobyBenubi
and it could have been Sean Connery as Gandalf
CountCrow
You shall not pash
krauraurgg
That could have been really good. Really different, but also really good. Or atrociously terrible. Hard to say.
OobedoobScoobyDoobyBenubi
I'd say terrible. "YOU. SHALL NOT. PASSSHHHHH!"
NotSoSmartAlek
Or Christopher Lee.
MetalJesus
We still got Christopher Lee in LOTR and it was good.
NotSoSmartAlek
Yup. But not as Gandalf. Which I'm kinda torn about. Could have been good or bad. Who could have done as good a job as Saruman?
Animorphs
He didn't take the role due to not understanding the story at all if memory serves.
geriatricsanatore
Correct, and he regretted it, so when the script for league of gentlemen was sent he took it, it bombed and he gave up acting.
Pulochilastra
i actually liked that movie :(
