At China's Huading Awards, Nicolas Cage was named the greatest actor ever. Cage accepted the award in person, as he was in Hong Kong shooting a movie called “Outcast” with
Hayden Christensen. He is most known to us comic fans as the guy who played 'Big Daddy' in the first Kick-Ass movie, and Ghost Rider... twice. While Cage is an Oscar-winning actor, he has also appeared in several movies that have... not exactly been critical favorites. The Huading Awards are China’s premier awards show where the honorees are determined by fan votes and recognize the best from various genres of entertainment, including film, television, dance, theater, and music.
“I believe in the genius loci of a place, the genie of the place is what I call it. I absorb that energy and it affects performance wherever I go,” Cage said on the red carpet.
“… Making a movie in China, I’m buzzing with good energy, I feel great here. I love the people I’m working with, I love the crew, and there’s a genuine warmth and enthusiasm that I get from my conversations.” Obviously there are a lot of great actors that didn't win, but this is apparently the actor China has voted for. Well, sound of below!
