Australia is fast becoming Hollywood 2.0 with a handful of stars in the country filming.
And according to The Daily Telegraph, the next big A-lister set to come Down Under is American actor Nicolas Cage, 57.
The renowned star, who is known for films including Face/Off, will reportedly soon be filming his adaption of the popular Netflix series Tiger King in Queensland. He will star in a new Amazon TV series as Joe Exotic.

The publication reports that ‘extras and crew’ are ‘being finalised’ for his upcoming scripted TV series, which is being produced by the actor’s company for Amazon.
The Daily Telegraph reported that filming will take place in Brisbane and on the Gold Coast.
In his role as Joe Exotic, the movie star will be sporting a very different look, possibly donning a long-blonde wig to mirror the man made famous in the original Netflix show.

Daily Mail Australia has contacted a representative of Nicolas for comment, in relation to this story.
If Nicolas does come to Australia, he will be in very good company.
Earlier this week Scott Eastwood, the son of iconic actor Clint Eastwood, gushed about how much he loves Australia when asked if he will be working on a project in the country anytime soon.

During a chat with KIIS FM’s Kyle and Jackie O, the American actor hinted he too was moving Down Under.
‘I’m trying to get back asap,’ Scott said, as he promoted his new film, Wrath of Man.
‘I was in Australia March 5 and then I flew home to America to go to [a film festival] and when I landed back home they said, “the world is shutting down, that festival isn’t happening”.’
As a result, Scott said he was disappointed that he had to leave.
‘I was like, “you made me leave Australia, do you know how much I love it there?”‘
‘Do you know how much I love it there?’ Scott has previously enjoyed trips to Australia and previously visited the Big Banana in Coffs Harbour, in NSW
