The 'Renfield' star was asked by Stephen Colbert about his earliest memory—and Cage had a whopper of an answer.

Nicolas Cage claims he remembers being inside his mother's womb, and, well, we need a minute to process that.

But honestly, if anyone could make that statement believable, it would be him.


Cage was on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert earlier this week where he participated in "The Colbert Questionert."

After answering life's tough questions like "Apples or oranges?" and "Window or aisle?" Cage was asked about his earliest memory.

The Renfield star pondered a moment and then revealed:

"Listen, 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 or something."

He continued:

"I know that sounds powerfully abstract, but that somehow seems like maybe it happened."

He completed his response:

"Now that I am no longer in utero, I would have to imagine perhaps it was vocal vibrations resonating through to me in that stage going way back."
"That comes to mind."

Viewers of the segment were highly entertained by Cage's response... but also not in the least surprised.












After hearing Cage out, Colbert replied:

"I buy it. I buy it."

And, honestly, we think we might, too.

Ilhan Omar Claps Back Hard After Nancy Mace Tries To Insult Her With Bizarre Post Following Iran Attack

Minnesota Democratic Representative Ilhan Omar clapped back at South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace after Mace attempted to insult her and Michigan Democratic Representative Rashida Tlaib after President Donald Trump ordered an attack on various sites in Iran on Saturday morning that killed Iranian leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and other top officials.

Omar and Tlaib were the first two Muslim women elected to Congress. Both have faced repeated attacks from members of the Republican Party tied to their religion, including being labeled part of the so-called “Jihad Squad,” a term suggesting they are sympathetic to extremism or seek to impose Islamist rule in the United States.

Pete Hegseth Ripped After Trying To Claim That The U.S. 'Didn't Start This War' With Iran

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was criticized after he claimed that the U.S. "didn't start this war" with Iran—just days after the Trump administration authorized an attack on various sites in Iran with the joint efforts of Israel over the weekend.

The war against Iran is already spreading beyond its initial battlefield. Iranian reprisals have struck Gulf states hosting U.S. bases—including Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia—while Hezbollah has entered the fight, firing rockets into Israel and ending a month-long ceasefire.

'SNL' Turns Trump Diss About U.S. Women's Olympic Hockey Team On Its Head With Sweet Monologue Moment

Connor Storrie’s debut Saturday Night Live monologue had just about everything: jokes, a childhood throwback, a few perfectly placed Heated Rivalry innuendos, and—because this is apparently the most athletic season in Studio 8H history—both the gold-winning players from the U.S. men’s and women’s Olympic hockey teams.

The appearance came just days after controversy over invitations to the White House and President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address, giving the night an edge that felt bigger than a typical celebrity-cameo parade.
