Nicolas Cage turned down the role of Neo in The Matrix!

Over the past decade, Nicolas Cage has become one of the easiest actors in Hollywood to make fun of. It's a combination of the hair, the transforming face and the awful movies.

That makes it easy to forget that Cage was once one of the game's most sought after actors. So sought after, in fact, that the 47-year-old actor has had to turn down his fair share of roles.

After being offered the role of Aragorn in Lord of the Rings, he was offered to play Neo in “The Matrix” but he decided to turn down that part because the movie was being shot in Australia and he also didn’t feel mature enough as an actor.
