Nicolas Cage's Joe Exotic Series Scrapped at Amazon

Nicolas Cage will not be playing Joe Exotic after all.

In a new report from Variety, the planned series at Amazon has been scrapped.

“We should clear the record,” Nicolas shared with the trade about the project. “I read two excellent scripts, which I did think were excellent, but I think Amazon ultimately felt that it was material that had become past tense because it took so long for it come together.”

He adds, “They felt at one point that it was lightning in a bottle, but that point has since faded into the distance and it’s no longer relevant.”

While this series about Joe Exotic, which was inspired by Netflix’s Tiger King, will not be going forward, there is another project that will.
