Nicolas Cage is set to fulfil a lifelong dream and spend Christmas in the U.K.
The Hollywood star has always wanted to celebrate the festive season in England so is flying all his family over from the States.
Cage - who has a two-year-old son, Kal-El, with wife Alice Kim, said, "This year I'm doing something new. I'm going to be in the U.K. I've always wanted to have a Charles Dickens-style traditional English Christmas ever since I was small so I'll be bringing the whole family over and we'll spend it in England. Maybe it will snow. Maybe!"
Cage is fast becoming a committed Anglophile.
Earlier this year, the "Ghost Rider' spent nearly $10 million on a British castle.
Isabel Briggs - the seller of the 18th Century gothic abode, located near Bath - said, "There is a bit of fantasy about the castle but what appealed to him is the rather romantic landscape - we have a beautiful valley with its own woods. When he visited in May he walked all around the estate and decided that this was for him."
The 60-acre estate boasts an orangery, two cottages, a ruined chapel and 11 acres of woodland.
Cage already has an impressive property portfolio, with 14 homes dotted around the globe worth around $66 million. They include a Californian beach house which once belonged to late actor John Wayne.
