While making the press rounds for "The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent," Nicolas Cage surprised ComicBook's Brandon Davis with some news about the forthcoming "Face/Off" film."There have been some phone calls with Neal [Moritz], who I enjoyed very much working with on the first 'Face/Off,'" Cage said. "He's somebody, he's one of the true, great producers in Hollywood. And, they have been making some calls. The other ones like 'National Treasure,' I mean, their priority was a TV show. God speed to them. But, maybe 'Face/Off,' maybe."
While this comment is ambiguous — we have no idea if Cage would actually be part of a continuation story or shown in a flashback sequence — it's definitely intriguing to hear that he's actively in talks with the producers of the film for the sequel. Joan Allen, who starred in the original as Eve Archer, the wife of John Travolta's Sean Archer, has said that she hasn't been approached about the sequel but would like to chat with the filmmakers about it (via ComicBook).
For a sequel to really work and draw in the fans, Travolta would also likely need to return, and so far he isn't giving any hints about his interest. Here's hoping director Adam Wingard succeeds in getting the crew back together.
