Nicolas Cage: I will continue working and acting

Nicolas Cage

Veteran actor Nicolas Cage says he will never retire from acting and wants to continue starring in movies as long as he can. The 54-year-old actor has an eclectic filmography which includes hits such as "National Treasure", "Con Air" and "Leaving Las Vegas".

In an interview with The Times newspaper, Cage said, "Relative frugality is something that I'm hopeful I can achieve because I want to have longevity. I don't want to be doing Pizza Hut commercials when I'm 75. "I want to be able to continue making movies whether I'm supporting or playing leads and whether I'm making movies that are deployed on video-on-demand or going into the cinemas. I just want to continue working and acting, or film performance if you will."

The actor's latest release is crime comedy "Mom and Dad", which follows a teenage girl and her younger brother who try to survive wild 24 hours during a mass hysteria of unknown origins which causes parents to turn and kill their own children.
