Cage has gotten married five times. His first wife was Patricia Arquette, an actress whom he married in April 1995 and divorced in 2001.
Cage’s second marriage was to singer-songwriter Lisa Marie Presley, the daughter of Elvis and Priscilla Presley. (Cage, an Elvis devotee, drew influence from Elvis for his Wild at Heart performance.) They got married in Kamuela, Hawaii, on August 10, 2002, then filed for divorce 107 days later, on November 25, 2002. The divorce was finalized on May 24, 2004.
Cage’s third wife was Alice Kim. On July 30, 2004, they got married at a private ranch in northern California. On October 3, 2005, she gave birth to their son Kal-El, named after Superman’s birth name. However, they got divorced in January 2016.

Cage and Riko Shibata married on February 16, 2021. Their daughter, August Francesca, arrived on September 7, 2022.
Meanwhile, Cage featured in Werner Herzog’s 2009 film The Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans. The picture garnered universally favorable reviews, and Cage was praised for his starring performance. He achieved big office success in 2012 with Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, which grossed $585 million.
Joe, his follow-up picture, was a commercial failure. In 2018, he starred in the critically acclaimed action film Mandy, produced by Elijah Wood. Wood planned to whip up Oscar support for Cage, but the film was eventually disqualified for a late-year release. Cage agreed to play the lead part in Richard Stanley’s 2018 film Color Out of Space. This was Stanley’s first feature picture since 1996.
Nicolas Cage went on to star in Pig (2021), The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent (2022), and Renfield (2023). In 2023, Cage also appeared in The Flash as an alternate version of Superman, donning his cape.
