CNN
Nicolas Cage knows it may sound "pretentious," but he would prefer you refer to him as a "thespian."
The Oscar winner known for performances in such films as "Leaving Las Vegas" and "Face/Off" shared during a conversation on Variety's Awards Circuit podcast that he's not a fan of being called an "actor."
"For me it always implies, 'Oh, he's a great actor, therefore he's a great liar,'" Cage said.
