Nicolas Cage has sported many questionable hairstyles and unconvincing wigs throughout his illustrious career, ranging from Valley Girl‘s bouffant to Ghost Rider‘s blatantly obvious hairpiece via Con Air‘s long, luxurious locks and whatever the hell he’s got on his head in 1993’s Deadfall.

Cage is currently shooting gritty Western Butcher’s Crossing in the wilds of Montana, and Variety have revealed the first look at the one of the internet’s favorite actors in character, which you can see below.
Butcher’s Crossing finds Cage as a buffalo hunter in rural 1870s America who takes a young Harvard dropout under his wing, before they head off on a journey that threatens both their safety and sanity.
