Nicolas Cage Sci-Fi Film ‘Knowing’

Nicolas Cage has certainly packed his schedule before the looming actors’ strike. He’s added yet another movie to his work load in the form of Knowing, the latest film from I, Robot helmer Alex Proyas.

The film is scheduled to start filming in March and sees Cage play a teacher who digs up a time capsule at his son’s primary school. Predictions in the time capsule are so on point, that it leads Cage’s character to believe the world is going to end in a week. When he finds out that he and his son are involved, things get a little scary.

The film is based on an idea from novelist Ryan Pearson, who also wrote the first draft of the script. The script was then polished by Proyas and Stuart Hazeldine.
