Cage’s most recent film, “Renfield,” hit theaters on Friday — and co-star Nicholas Hoult also had to devour some creepy crawlers in that one.
Nicolas Cage will do anything for a movie role — but maybe not twice.
Cage claimed on the film’s DVD commentary track that he was the one that begged for the live insects, as the original script allegedly called for Cage to simply swallow a raw egg. Meanwhile, in the new vampire horror comedy “Renfield,” which hit theaters Friday, it was co-star Nicholas Hoult’s turn to ingest some creepy crawlers — though his experience was a little sweeter.. “I also had crickets that were actually quite yummy; they were salt and vinegar flavored or barbecue smoky flavored.”
