Synopsis: In one of the film’s earliest sequences, A frantic “Nic” — once a box-office king, now more famous for the sheer volume of his jobs — ruins a lunch meeting with a producer type at the lush industry haunts Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles. At valet pickup, he can’t help but release a full monologue in the man’s vaguely horrified face, and that’s Cage’s problem: Whether it’s a skeptical spectator, his mortified teenage daughter (Lily Sheen), or his most recent ex-wife, he’s always overwhelming whoever’s in the room with the raw tiger-blood fury of his passions. He’s also known for playing fast and loose with money, so when his sleazy agent (Neil Patrick Harris) offers him $1 million to attend a Spanish billionaire’s birthday party, he hesitantly accepts; there’s a $600,000 post-divorce hotel bill that won’t go away. He also realizes, at least to some extent, that he needs to make a comeback. Arriving bleary-eyed at a sun-drenched private villa in Mallorca, he’s both relieved and surprised to discover that his eager host, Javi (Pedro Pascal), is a Cage super-fan of the highest, geekiest order; a man content at first to bask in his celebrity guest’s glow, though he does, of course, have a screenplay he’d love him to check out. Javi appears to be a pretty lovely person beneath his fanboy passion and Gucci loafers. However, Vivian (Tiffany Haddish) and Martin (Ike Barinholtz), two CIA spies with their own purpose, disrupt their slow dance of male bonding. They want the actor to assist them in reuniting with the kidnapped adolescent daughter of a Catalan presidential candidate, whom they say Javi, a violent international arms dealer, is holding hostage on his property. And, as Cage points out, why not? As a thespian, his self-proclaimed “nouveau shamanic” powers are nothing if not prepared for Mission: Impossible intrigue.
