Face/Off: How Nicolas Cage, Die Hard and a confused Johnny Depp helped make an action classic

John Travolta with Cage’s own face grafted on – as happens when the actors trade places in the 1997 actioner Face/Off – but when Cage met a life-size replica of himself. It had hair, wrinkles, remote controlled facial features, and an internal bladder system that allowed the Cage-a-like dummy to simulate breathing. He and Travolta had been recreated as robotised dummies for the film’s pivotal surgery scene, in which their faces are sliced off and swapped around.

Travolta had even been branded, amusingly in hindsight, “the coolest man alive” by Empire magazine in April 1996. In Face/Off, Cage and Travolta play mortal enemies: Cage is
