Nicolas Cage has said he plans to retire from acting in films and has “maybe three or four more movies” left to do before he switches his attention to TV.

In an interview with Uproxx, Cage said: “I feel that I’ve, at this point – after 45 years of doing this; that in over 100 movies – I feel I’ve pretty much said what I’ve had to say with cinema. And I’d like to leave on a high note and say, ‘Adios’.”
