The Truth About Nicolas Cage's Pyramid Tomb |

Before you get all worried, fear not: Nicolas Cage is alive and well. In fact, he's still putting out around five films a year, according to Esquire, with his biggest headliner being the 2021 release The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, where Nicolas Cage stars as (who else?) Nicolas Cage himself, trying to get a role in a Tarantino flick. It's very Cage-y, to say the least.
However, Cage being Cage, he planned his final resting place a long time ago, and had it built, so that it'll be ready for him when he finally does pass away. As far as location goes, it's no surprise that he picked New Orleans: Cage has a longstanding love affair with the city, having donated $1 million to Hurricane Katrina relief efforts in 2005, according to NOLA.com, and once stating, "It keeps me coming back and keeps me compelled. A lot of my most magical memories are from New Orleans or when I was in New Orleans."
Fair enough. But, uh ... why a pyramid? And why'd he start this project so far in advance?
