Nicolas cage "the croods"

Nicolas cage "the croods", Nicolas Cage has jokingly referred to his new film The Croods as a thoroughly "modern" prehistoric adventure movie.

Cage and Emma Stone lend their voices to The Croods as members of a caveman family who adventure out of their home with a risk-taking guide

In an interview with Flicks and Bits, the actor said the conflicts within the prehistoric family are extremely relatable for today's audiences.

"I think they're a completely modern family, clothed to be looking like Neanderthals," Cage explained. "The issues and the tensions that arise in the story of The Croods are things I think any family can relate to."

He continued: "The fact that [my character] Grug has a young daughter who's becoming a teenage young lady who wants to go exploring, maybe meet a boy, maybe fall in love… Grug is to an extent understandably over-protective. There's genuine fears and concerns with that. I think any father and daughter can relate to that dynamic.

"And it goes on, the mother-in-law is something that gets a lot of laughs because everyone knows what that can be like. For me The Croods is an extremely emotional movie because it does operate on those feelings we feel as fathers and sons, sons and daughters, daughters and fathers… it works on every level."

Cage also credited The Croods directors Kirk DeMico and Chris Sanders for letting him "experiment" while recording his lines.

"They allowed us to reach for something in the abstract, and they knew what would work when they heard it," he said. "They're not what I call 'precious' with the dialogue, which works very well for me because then I can riff with them."

The actor went on to say: "I think this is a very much a handmade, tailoring process that takes up to three years. And in that time a lot of experimentation can occur to tweak things and adjust things, and there's a great little scene.

"I don't think it was originally on the books, but the scene where Grug has a sort of meltdown because everyone's paying more attention to Guy, that was a very funny scene that was really a bit of a surprise. That was something that was new."

The Croods debuted at the top of the US box office in its opening weekend, taking $44.7 million.
