Nicolas Cage has clarified his previous remarks, in which he said he is “currently a little bit homeless” after a sinkhole damaged his home.
“I went to Comic-Con, and I was riffing with a very good interviewer, and he just had to ask, because it was Halloween night, ‘What are you doing for Halloween?’ Now, when I said that, I meant my house is not available for trick-or-treaters,” he said.
He then quipped, “Now, I have to watch my words so much to the letter.”

The Longlegs actor continued, “Now, I have to watch my words so much to the letter. We’re content. We’re fine. We’re not destitute. We’re okay. I was just meaning that the house is not available for decorations and for candy to hand out to the children, which I like to do because I like Halloween.”

He continued, “I mean, it’s pretty brutal. Two Premier Protein shakes and one meal a day. It’s usually a Caesar salad. But with that, I got to enjoy the pasta and then I added—look, I’m 62, so I’m not going to gain 60 pounds. That’s dangerous. But I added the other 30 with [prosthetics].”
