“I know you’re not afraid of the dark… because you are the dark”: Longlegs Trailer Shows Nicolas Cage in the Role He Was Destined to Play – A Serial Killer
Nicolas Cage is one of the most respected and talented actors in Hollywood. His works have become ingrained in the very fabric of cinema, establishing him as a true legend. A lot of his success can be credited to his diversity as an actor, being able to star in any genre under the sun. From action to romance, science fiction to drama, no classification is too caging for him.

Despite this, there is still one beloved genre the actor has been absent from; horror. While he has been in some memorable films, they always tie in with other genres like comedy or thrillers. Serious supernatural films are rarely seen from Cage. That was, until now.
Nicolas Cage’s New Film Is Bone-Chilling
The trailer for Nicolas Cage’s upcoming film, Longlegs, was recently released, and it is safe to say that his fans were extremely surprised. The film has a very interesting premise, following a story similar to The Silence of the Lambs but with a completely different approach.
A still from the Longlegs trailer [Credit: Neon]FBI Agent Lee Harker gets wrapped up in the twisted threads of a serial killer as she tries to catch him before he can kill more people. While the concept sounds simple on paper, the film takes a complete 180 and introduces themes of the occult.
I saw a beast rise up out of the sea. With seven heads and ten horns. And on his horns, he wore ten crowns. On each head was written a blasphemous name.

Nicolas Cage—The Serial Killer
Longlegs stars Maika Monroe in the role of Harker, and interestingly enough, the titular character is played by none other than Nicolas Cage. Although the actor’s full look as the character has not been revealed yet, several lines of dialogue are almost unsettling to listen to.
I know you’re not afraid of the dark… because you are the dark.

Don’t remember the last time a movie trailer actually gave me the creeps like this one did

Even though he physically did not appear yet, the lines that he said in between horrific shots of his crimes were enough to make fans uncomfortable and intrigued. Even though Cage has never played such a character before, his performance seems to be spectacular.
Longlegs will be released in theaters on July 12, 2024.
