Nicolas Cage confirms True Detective season 5 talks, shares update on series status ...Middle East

The mystery drama takes an anthology format, exploring different characters and a macabre new case in each season, with a handful of thematic links and subtle Easter eggs connecting the lot.

Cage would fit nicely in that group, but the Spider-Noir star has clarified that his involvement is still very much tentative, admitting he has "no idea" how the project is progressing.

True Detective: Night Country, the fourth and most recent instalment, saw Mexican filmmaker Issa López take the reins from series creator Nic Pizzolatto – and deliver the show's highest ratings to date (via THR).

López is reportedly staying in the top job for season 5, which is a key factor for Cage, who voiced his admiration for the writer-director and said he "would be thrilled" to collaborate with her.

Spider-Noir marks Cage's first major TV role, after years spent "adamant" that he wouldn't move to the small screen; that stance began to soften during the COVID-19 pandemic, when his son introduced him to Breaking Bad.

"I waited for something that I thought would be special, and I can tell you that with Spider-Noir, the vision that I had in my imagination manifested in the exact way that I'd hoped," he teased.
