One thing about Nicolas Cage, he’s certainly not afraid to work. That has led to a a near assembly line of movies (five this year alone), many of which aren’t what you would call stellar quality. Yet this has also helped give him a cult status among moviegoers. It’s hard not to enjoy the wackiness that is Nicolas Cage. But it’s easy to forget that Cage is also a really good actor. He reminds us of that from time to time and it looks like he may be doing it again with “Dream Scenario”.
This new off-beat comedy from writer-director Kristoffer Borgli premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival and is now set to be released by A24. It sees Cage playing a homely college professor who suddenly gains celebrity status after he begins appearing in everyone’s dreams. The trailer reveals a movie that looks really unique and a lot of fun. I’m excited to see how this thing plays out.
“Dream Scenario” hits theaters on November 10th. Check out the trailer below and let me know if you’ll be seeing it or taking a pass.
Keith & the Movies 
This looks promising! I will definitely be seeking it out when it opens in theaters. I just saw The Retirement Plan yesterday, and it was pretty awful. Cage’s movies are so wildly hit or miss, but he has proven he has true talent many many times.
I was wondering about THE RETIREMENT PLAN. Didn’t look great so I gave it a pass. You pretty much reinforced my decision. LOL.
I hope this is a palate cleanser after “Renfield,” which seriously creeped me out. Interesting premise for a movie.
100% agree. Wasn’t a fan of Renfield. Had high hopes for it. This looks quite a bit better.
OK in spite of it being a comedy, I’m up for this, love Nic Cage when he’s on form.
Me too. This looks pretty interesting. And one thing about Cage – he can take on many forms.
Oh this looks like it’s going to be absolutely fun. I’m enjoying this new run of films that he’s doing. I guess he just wants to have fun doing what he loves. Get paid to do what you love? That’s awesome.
He definitely does what he wants. You have to admire that.

Looks good! Thanks for highlighting this one.
You bet. I’m looking forward to it.
