“I will never see this movie", Cage said. “I’m told it’s a good movie. I’m told people love it and are enjoying the ride, but I made that for the audience".
“It’s too much for me to go to the premiere and sit there with everybody", Cage continued. "Psychologically, that’s too bizarre and whacked out for me".
This also comes Amazon decided to shelve the adaption of Tiger King, starring Cage.
“They felt at one point that it was lightning in a bottle, but that point has since faded into the distance and it’s no longer relevant", Cage said.
