Actor Nicolas Cage has shared his thoughts on what he believes happens when we die, and he also discussed how his earliest memory may have been when he was in the womb.
Appearing on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Cage began by describing what happens when we die, as he sees it. The Oscar-winner has a hopeful take on death, saying he believes that everyone's «spark» may go on, in some way or another.
«Nobody really knows. I don't know. They say that electricity is forever, eternal; the spark keeps going. I'd like to think whatever spark is animating our bodies, once the body passes on that the spark continues to go. But whether or not that electricity has consciousness or not, who could really say?» Cage said (via Variety).
Also in the interview, Cage said his earliest memory was actually in utero.
«I know this sounds really far out and I don't know if it's real or not, but sometimes I think I can go all the way back to in utero and feeling like I could see faces in the dark. I know that sounds powerfully abstract, but that somehow seems like maybe it happened,» he said.
Reflecting on this further, Cage said he now believes «vocal vibrations» may have been resonating to me, and this led his pre-natal mind to believe he was seeing faces. «That's going way back, so I don't know, but that comes to mind,» Cage said.
Cage's latest role is Dracula in the action-comedy Renfield, which is in theaters now.
