A Baldur's Gate 3 fan had the entire community in stitches with a Nicolas Cage compilation - and even the game's developers took notice.
If Baldur's Gate 3 was a movie or TV show, which actors would portray the main characters? Timothée Chalamet as Astarion, perhaps? Or Jenna Ortega as Shadowheart? One member of the huge fanbase surrounding the DnD game has a different idea...
Bladur's Gate Mod: Nicolas Cage As... Everyone?
A Reddit user transferred the face of the beloved actor Nicolas Cage to various Baldur's Gate 3 characters. Probably using an AI tool, cause some of the fusions look a little too natural.

The post was well received in the comments, with some wanting Khaga to be portrayed by Cage in a movie. But the other characters are also quite impressive. I mean, who could resist a Nicolas Gale? But let's be real, if you ask me, Nicolas Cage would actually be a perfect fit for the role of Raphael if we'll ever get a Baldur's Gate 3 movie.
One Twitter user was just as touched as many others who saw the post on Reddit and published a selection of the edited images on the platform, with the words "I saw this so now you have to too."
And that, dear children, is how this pleasant little gallery caught the attention of the developers of Baldur's Gate 3, who reacted cautiously.
Could you not

The studio's Twitter account only had three words left for this masterpiece: "Could you not." Too bad, I would have hoped for a little more enthusiasm, but it's nice to see that they take it with humor.
