Nicolas Cage showed up in his new look

The 61-year-old actor will play American football ex-coach and sports commentator John Madden in the biopic. Cage appeared as the sports star on the set in Atlanta.

Alongside Cage, the movie will also feature Christian Bale, who plays the late Oakland Raiders owner Al Davis, and John Mulaney as businessman and Electronic Arts founder Trip Hawkins.

The movie will tell the story of the life of football legend John Madden and his participation in the development of the Madden NFL video game series.

As a reminder, the premiere date of the final Downton Abbey movie has been announced. The first teaser of the gothic Frankenstein movie starring Oscar Isaac was also released.
