Would be the greatest casting since Hugh Jackman as wolverine.

Iām always slightly amused whenever an actor comes out and says theyād like to play a role in a movie, without anyone involved in the movie asking them first. Has that ever really worked out?

Idk about putting him in the next Batman movie, but if Nicholas Cage gets to cameo as Egghead in a hypothetical Suicide Squad sequel (sorta like what they did with Calendar Man), I think thatād be really cool!

On one hand, respect for Cage pulling out an obscure character.
On the other hand, may I offer a better role for his skills:
I mean, read this in Nicās voice and tell me Iām wrong.

OH MY GOD I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING.
If Eggman and Professor Pyg teamed up, they would be called āBacon and Eggs.ā I can picture a Robin throwing them on the steps of GCPD saying āBreakfast is served.ā

Rarely, if ever. Most of the time when we see stuff like this itās usually a designed attention grab of some spotlight. Itās also a clear indicator that heās got a stack of scripts on his desk that heās not happy with and heās letting Tinseltown biz peeps know that heās fishing for new opps. Gottaā say tho I do love the idea of him reprising the late great Vincent Priceās role as Egghead. 
Not so much in Reevesā franchise (the character just doesnāt seem to fit the storyline), but here-
Yes, YES PLEEZ.

This is gonna sound weird, but I think I have to explain it in order to convey how I feel now that Iām seeing this.
First off (this is the oddball part, bare with me here), but my mom has said that Nicolas Cage looks like my dad. Now, I have never met my father, because reasons, but I am the spinning image of my father, and if my father looks similarly to Nicholas Cageā¦
This is one of those things that has never left my mind ever since she said this to me, and for many years I have never looked at him the same way again (needless to say the movie Face Off can be weird for me to watch).
Why is this important? Well, even though this is nothing official, or confirmed, and this is just something that he shared his thoughts onā¦ the idea of Eggman being played by a guy who looks like my father, who I look likeā¦ I just donāt know.
Obviouslyā¦ this is just me. Iām not saying this as any reason as to why he shouldnāt. Being an actor that gets a role as a character is his job and itās what keeps the lights on for him, and my teeny tiny weird brain thought isnāt something that is going to keep this from happening (see, I even admit this, unlike some internet incels). This is just what instantly popped into my head when I saw this thread.
I guess the only question I have now is what potential story/movie would Eggman need to show up, but if The Suicide Squad was able to bring in obscure characters and make them the highlights of the movie, then whatever happens happens 
I donāt hate this idea, I donāt love this idea. All I know is that if this ever does come into fruition, all Iāll be thinking about is āWhy does Eggman look like my father?ā which I admit is a very funny thought

The thought that comes to my mind is maybe a rival crime lord?

Whatā¦you think heās getting tired of doing DTV movie after DTV movie, and wants to be in something that people will actually, you know, see? Nah. 
Anywhozā¦
I donāt think Egghead would fit Reevesā take on Batman, but in the DCEU and in āSuicide Squad Tres: Three Times The Mess!ā as directed by James Gunn?
As Lex said in Superman Returns, āBring it on!ā 
imagines Cagehead making egg puns, to which Peacemaker says āOh my God, dude! Would you shut the **** up about eggs, already?!ā as Harley giggles nearby

I think it would be a truly missed opportunity not to be able to hear and see Cage pastiche any and all wording in his on screen dialogue that begin with the letters ex to egg (ie: eggcellent, eggsistential, and so on) ala Vincent Priceās unforgettable BāMan '66 performances. This facet of his performance alone would truly be worth the price of admission, without a doubt.
Can I get some amens on this pleez Excellent @xLOVEandDoomPatrolx and Mr. @biff_pow.

As a fan of NC (yes! Including Willyās Wonderland, somehow!), Iām content to let him do whatever he wants and support him in any role.
