Exclusive Interview – Lily Sheen on working with the iconic Nic Cage on The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent

April 13, 2022 by EJ Moreno

EJ Moreno sits down with actress Lily Sheen to discuss her role in The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent…

Lily Sheen joins Nicolas Cage in The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent. During our chat with Lily, the actress opened up about filming with Cage, if she used her parents Kate Beckinsale and Michael Sheen as inspiration, and her best on-set memories from the movie.

Check out the interview below, and be sure to give us a follow on YouTube for more exclusive video content…

Nicolas Cage stars as… Nick Cage in the action-comedy “The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent.” Creatively unfulfilled and facing financial ruin, the fictionalized version of Cage must accept a $1 million offer to attend the birthday of a dangerous superfan (Pedro Pascal). Things take a wildly unexpected turn when Cage is recruited by a CIA operative (Tiffany Haddish) and forced to live up to his own legend, channeling his most iconic and beloved on-screen characters in order to save himself and his loved ones. With a career built for this very moment, the seminal award-winning actor must take on the role of a lifetime: Nicolas Cage.

The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent features a cast that includes Nicolas Cage, Pedro Pascal, Sharon Horgan, Ike Barinholtz, Alessandra Mastronardi, Jacob Scipio, Lily Sheen, Neil Patrick Harris, and Tiffany Haddish.

The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent is set for release in cinemas on April 22nd.
