Nicolas Cage revealed he thought he was an "alien" as a child

When Nicolas Cage was a child, he had the strangest belief that he was an alien. As a result, he was shocked when doctors informed him that he was indeed human. The 58-year-old Hollywood celebrity claimed he was taken aback when a checkup revealed "normal organs and a normal skeleton" in him. Additionally, Cage claimed that before this visit, he thought he was from another planet. The Gone in 60 Seconds actor admitted to Rampstyle magazine that he was socially uncomfortable and had a hard time connecting with others. He disclosed, "My father told me he felt like he had to introduce himself to me because I was such an alien. I was shocked the day I went to the doctor’s office as a child and I found out that I had normal organs and a normal skeleton because I was certain I was from another planet."
