Nicholas Cage to voice VERN in Amazon’s adaptation of Eoin Colfer’s HIGHFIRE

As reported by the Hollywood Reporter, Nicolas Cage will be starring in and executive producing a drama for Amazon based on the book Highfire, by Eoin Colfer. Published in January (how long ago does that feel…?), Highfire follows the tale of VERN – a hard-drinking, TV-binge-watching, last-of-his-kind dragon hiding out from the world in a swamp.

The Hollywood Reporter indicates that Cage will only be voicing the character, so it looks like we’ll be getting a CGI dragon! You can learn more about and read the first chapter of HIGHFIRE on our dedicated HIGHFIRE page!
