In 1976, Cage's parents divorced and he moved to Beverly Hills with his father. He is the nephew of both Francis Ford Coppola and Talia Shire.

His next notable roles were in the 1983 movies Rumble Fish and Valley Girl, which was his breakout role. He won an Academy Award for Best Actor for his role in Leaving Las Vegas (1995). He has developed a reputation for alternating roles in action movies with more serious character-driven dramas, and an occasional black comedy. He has a son, Weston Coppola Cage (born 1990), with model Kristina Fulton. On April 8, 1995, he married actress Patricia Arquette. They divorced in 2001. On August 10, 2001, he married Lisa Marie Presley and filed for divorce less than four months later.
