Bald-headed and beard-wearing, Nicolas Cage is UNRECOGNIZABLE as he makes his debut on the set of upcoming comedy Dream Scenario
Nicolas Cage was almost unrecognizable when he was first spotted on the set of his upcoming movie in Toronto.
The A24-produced film is called Dream Scenario, and while Deadline has reported that it will be a comedy, no further details about the premise have been released.
Sporting a grizzled bear and a large prosthetic bald spot, the 58-year-old film star blended even further into the character through glasses.

He was spotted this Friday filming a scene at the entrance of a cinema with his co-star Julianne Nicholson, who recently won an Emmy for Mare Of Easttown.
Dream Scenario is written and directed by Kristoffer Borgli, whose previous work includes the dramedy film Sick Of Myself in his native Norway.
The new film will be produced by Ari Aster, the director of such lively horror films as Midsommar and Hereditary.

The Unbearable Weight Of Massive Talent launched this April with poor box office returns but a warm critical response to the tune, scoring 86% on Rotten Tomatoes.
