Nicolas Cage, one step away from starring in the new season of True Detective
The first season of True Detective premiered in 2014, and its impact was immediate. The eight-episode miniseries, starring Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson , was one of the highest peaks of 21st-century television , and that success soon led to a second season, which didn't meet the expected results. The proposal to tell different stories in each season resulted in an erratic performance, and the shadow of the first year was never overcome. After a decent third season, and a fourth year that marked a change of direction, True Detective is preparing for a new batch of episodes, which could feature a big star at the helm of the story.
Jodie Foster 's lead role in True Detective 4 was proof of the public's interest in having a Hollywood figure helming the action. And following that path, Nicolas Cage is very close to being the lead in the fifth season of True Detective . According to Variety , the production of the aforementioned series is very close to closing a deal with Cage to star in the new episodes of the crime drama.
At the moment, there is no information about the plot of the fifth year of the series, only that it will take place in Jamaica Bay, an area located south of Long Island, New York.
If this information is confirmed, True Detective 5 would mark Nicolas Cage's second leading role on television, alongside the series Spider-Man Noir , which the actor is currently filming. In that series, the actor plays an alternate version of the superhero, who is dedicated to investigating various crimes in 1930s New York. This aging detective, wielding spider-like powers, is dedicated to hunting down various criminals and solving complex crimes. This series is slated to premiere sometime in 2026.
Earlier this year, Nicolas Cage openly spoke out against the use of Artificial Intelligence, joining the list of stars who publicly rejected it. "Robots can't dream for us," he said.
In February, the 52nd annual Saturn Awards for the Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror Films were held at the Hilton Universal City. Nicolas Cage won the Best Actor category for his work in Dream Scenario . And during his acceptance speech, he stated that there was "another world that worries him," that of AI.
“I'm a big believer in not letting robots dream for us. Robots can't reflect the human condition for us. That's a dead end. If an actor allows an AI robot to manipulate their performance even a little, an inch will eventually become a mile, and all the integrity, purity, and truth of art will be replaced solely by financial interests. We can't allow that to happen,” the actor maintained.
The protagonist of 60 Seconds reflected that “the work of all art” is “to hold up in a mirror the external and internal stories of the human condition through the reflective and emotional process of recreation,” and that is something a robot cannot do.
“If we let robots do it, they will be heartless, and over time, they will become dull and turn to mush. There will be no human response to life as we know it. It will be life as the robots tell us to know it,” he continued, and in closing, he called for “protection against AI interference” in “authentic and honest expressions.”
