Nicolas Cage compared the Marvel Cinematic Universe to a well-funded and glorified WWE during a conversation at Fan Expo Dallas. The actor said he makes the comparison with love, explaining that it is hard not to be reminded of the WWE when seeing actors in superhero outfits preparing for fight scenes.
Cage is not part of the upcoming film Avengers: Doomsday, so his remarks come as an outside observation rather than a comment on a project he is involved in.

Separately, Cage's own superhero-adjacent series Spider-Noir drew 2.6 billion viewing minutes in its first six weeks after all eight episodes were released at once. The show earned a near-perfect Rotten Tomatoes rating and 11 Primetime Emmy nominations, winning five.
