Oscar winner Nic, a workaholic who makes a lot of bad movies just to keep on the road, in characters and out of his own head (he told me as much once) has a real plum, here.

He plays a “nobody” college professor who starts turning up in people’s dreams — lots and lots of people’s dreams.

Julianne Nicholson, Lily Bird, Michael Cera, Tim Meadows and Dylan Baker are just some of the faces we recognize in the supporting cast.

Norwegian writer-director Kristoffer Borgli convinced Cage to sign up, and A24 convinced him to make his English-language satire debut with this one.

Looks dark but kind of adorable.
