Nicolas Cage to star as Tiger King's Joe Exotic in new limited TV series following Netflix original's success

The Joe Exotic phenomenon keeps growing, with Nicolas Cage to star in a TV miniseries about the colorful wild animal owner made famous by the Tiger King docuseries. The TV series is the first for Cage, who has played a range of characters in movies including Leaving Las Vegas, for which he won an Oscar, Moonstruck and National Treasure. Imagine Television Studios and CBS Television Studios are among the producers of the limited, eight-part project. [caption id=“attachment_6295891” align=“alignnone” width=“825”]Nicolas Cage. Image from Facebook Nicolas Cage. Image from Facebook[/caption] It will explore how Joe Shreibvogel became Joe Exotic and detail his effort to keep his Oklahoma zoo open “even at the risk of losing his sanity,” the producers said in a statement Monday. It’s based on the Texas Monthly magazine article Joe Exotic: A Dark Journey Into the World of a Man Gone Wild by Leif Reigstad. Dan Laguna, who with producer Paul Young optioned the article, will write and executive produce the series, which will be seeking a distribution deal soon, producers said. Netflix’s Tiger King has made Joe Exotic an object of fascination and controversy. He is now known as Joseph Maldonado-Passage and is serving a federal prison sentence for his conviction in a murder-for-hire plot and for animal abuse.
