Yup, same thing Cage does. He does little work, only has to show up for a few days of filming, and gets paid a significant portion of the budget.

It has meant he had far more time to spend with his family.

Not the case with Cage, dude was in huge debt with the IRS plus he over spent for years.

Sorry, meant the types of films he does. Bruce doesn't do the same volume as Cage as he doesn't need to.

Actually Cage does it now because he enjoys it. IRS got paid off.

If you read an interview with him, he swears up and down that he cherry picks roles because he wholeheartedly thinks they’re amazing. Even during the IRS shenanigans. He’s crazy enough that I believe him though.

Well, amazing or just interesting in some way. Like I saw an interview where he said he took the job on that bad FNAF ripoff movie specifically because he thought it would be fun to play a mute badass.

Although the one I was really disappointed in was "Prisoners of the Ghostland" which seriously should have been a lot better than it was.
