Actor Nicolas Cage's upcoming live-action series Highfire has moved from Amazon Studios to streaming service Paramount+.

Davey Holmes is adapting the novel and will executive produce alongside Cage.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Nicolas Cage Reveals Why He Turned Down The Matrix and The Lord of the Rings, Says He Needed to Be Home With His Son.
The 56-year-old actor will lend his voice to the titular character, a vodka-drinking, Flashdance-loving dragon who lives an isolated existence in the bayous of Louisiana.
Highfire is described as a genre-bending and a gritty crime-thriller with doses of magical realism. Colfer's novel, which was published in January 2020, is set in a world where dragons once ruled the earth, and Lord Highfire ruled the dragons.
Now, however, all Highfire rules is his shack in Honey Island Swamp. He now goes by Vern and spends his days hiding out among the alligators, watching cable TV and drinking obscene amounts of vodka. Vern is prepared to do whatever it takes, even if that means violence, to protect his own hide.슬롯 머신 사이트 추천The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent: Lily Sheen Says Nicolas Cage Gave Her Life Lessons on Set.
Vern's world soon collides with that of Squib, a teenager mixed up in running booze for the local mob, and their mutual struggle for survival becomes entangled in a most unlikely friendship. Highfire comes from Hollywood studio MGM.
