We knew this day was coming and now it's official - Nicolas Cage has gone TOTALLY off the rails.

In a recent interview, Nicolas Cage discussed his relationship with George Lucas, creator of the Star Wars franchise, and his family's connection to Mr. Lucas.

For those that don't know, Nicolas Cage is Godfather director Francis Ford Coppola's nephew. Coppola and Lucas worked on one another's films and, unsurprisingly, knew Nicolas quite well.

Cage worked with Hayden Christensen on schlock-fest Outcast and praised his co-star's acting abilities.

Let's pause here for a minute and let that sink. Nicolas Cage praised Hayden Christen's acting.

The veteran actor said Christensen had a "dark and still soulful performance" in the Star Wars prequels that he connected with.

"He's got that sad thing that I've always been accused of having in my eyes," Cage continued.
