Nicolas Cage didn’t see his unconventional family coming.
“It’s not what I had originally thought would happen when I fell in love or got married — that I would have three different children with three different moms — but nonetheless that’s what’s happened,” the actor admitted to the New Yorker in an interview published Monday.
Cage, who shares son Weston, 33, with ex-girlfriend Christina Fulton, son Kal-El, 18, with ex-wife Alice Kim, and daughter August, 1, with wife Riko Shibata, called each kid’s upbringing a “different experience.”

The “Wicker Man” star, 60, explained, “Each one has a different mother. … So every child is different. There’s a different kind of level of attention.”
He noted that raising his youngest child has been unique since having a daughter led to “different levels of worry and protection … taking [fatherhood] into overdrive.”
Cage is “very immersed” in August at the moment and called her toddler years an “attention suck.”

In 2022, the “Leaving Las Vegas” star told the Los Angeles Times that he finally “got it right” with Shibata, whom he met through mutual friends while filming “Prisoners of the Ghostland” in Japan.
“I know five is a lot,” he added at the time, calling himself really happily married.”
