Nicolas Cage from Willy’s Wonderland
Nicolas Cage plays the silent protagonist of the trippy horror movie Willy’s Wonderland. When he finds himself with a flat tire, he’s offered an easy gig; clean the amusement park Willy’s Wonderland overnight and his car repairs will be paid for. However, the task proves to be far from simple when the blood-thirsty animatronic creatures begin coming to life. Cage’s costume has two main phases; as the Drifter at the beginning of the film, he wears sunglasses and a leather jacket with red stripes down one sleeve over a grey henley. He swaps the henley and the jacket for a Willy’s Wonderland brand t-shirt when he agrees to be the Janitor. Finding exact matches for the jacket and t-shirt can be tough, though replicas can be found. Otherwise, it’s okay to use pieces that are close, even if they aren’t perfect. Don’t forget to top off your look with a black digital watch and oval belt buckle.
