Nicolas Cage Admits He Didn't Expect To Have 3 Kids With 3 Women

Nicolas Cage has made some rare comments about fatherhood.

Speaking with The New Yorker ahead of the release of his new horror film “Longlegs,” the Oscar winner, 60, opened up about his relationship with his three kids, whom he shares with three different women.

“They’re all different experiences. Each one has a different mother,” he said of his daughter August, 1, and sons Kal-El, 18, and Weston, 33, in the story published Monday.

The “Renfield” actor shares Weston with ex Christina Fulton, Kal-El with ex-wife Alice Kim and August with wife Riko Shibata.

Cage wed four times before Shibata in 2021. He tied the knot with Patricia Arquette in 1995, Lisa Marie Presley in 2002, Kim in 2004 and Erika Koike in 2019. His marriage to Koike lasted only four days.

After interviewer Susan Orlean commented that fathering a 2-year-old is an “attention-suck,” Cage admitted his “levels of worry” have increased since becoming a girl dad.

“Yeah, and a girl. My first daughter — so this is all different levels of worry and protection and taking it into overdrive,” he said.

Cage went on to juxtapose being a father of three to acting in Hollywood for more than 40 years.

“Being a dad — to me, it’s not an art form, it’s… How do I put this? It’s like breathing. Everything is about her,” he shared. “You know, I can make a movie or not make a movie. I can’t stop being a dad. With her, it’s life. It’s my survival.”
