Cage is set to be busy in 2020, returning to his character of Grug inThe Croods 2and set to star in a sci-fi martial arts filmJiu Jitsu, among other roles this year, according toIMDb. The actor will also play a “creatively unfulfilled” version of himself in the movieThe Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, according toDeadline.
In recent years, Cage has gravitated to more eclectic parts in independent films.
“I see myself very much as a student of film performance and I’m always looking to learn something,” Cage previously toldPEOPLE.“That’s why if you look at my filmography, it’s so eclectic. I’m always trying to challenge myself and take those risks and go for the triple axel, even though I might fall on my face. It’s still exciting to go for it and you still get points for trying.”
