Nicolas Cage to ‘shake the fabric of reality’ with upcoming role in Dead by Daylight universe
“There is nothing more powerful than imagination,” the actor muses in a new teaser for his mysterious collaboration with the horror video game franchise.
“There is nothing more powerful than imagination,” the Con Air and National Treasure star intones. “It can shake the fabric of reality, transforming everything you may think you know.”
“It’s the performance of a lifetime,” gaming studio Behaviour Interactive wrote in its caption. “Dead by Daylight: Nicolas Cage. Coming to a realm near you.”
According to the clip, we can “learn more” about the mysterious collaboration on July 5.
Dead by Daylight is an online survival horror game that has previously licensed characters from horror franchises including A Nightmare on Elm Street and Hellraiser.
