Nicolas Cage shares ultimate fate of iconic snakeskin jacket from 'Wild at Heart'

Nicolas Cage recently addressed the iconic snakeskin jacket from the 1990 movie Wild at Heart which cemented his individuality.

In a new interview with The Guardian, Nicolas Cage was asked whether he still possessed the snakeskin jacket.

For those unversed, Nicolas donned the jacket while playing the role as Sailor Ripley in David Lynch's 1990 film, Wild at Heart.

In response to this query, Nicolas recounted, “I found the snakeskin jacket in a secondhand store on Melrose in Los Angeles called Aaardvark’s.”

“It reminded me of the jacket Brando wears in The Fugitive Kind – and I knew at some point I was gonna put it in a movie,” he admitted about the sentimental value of that piece.

Speaking of the jacket’s ultimate fate, the actor shared that now it lies with his co-star, Laura Dern, who played the role of Lula Pace Fortune.

“I ended up giving it to Laura Dern because she was such a terrific actor, I enjoyed our time together on that movie with David Lynch, so I wanted her to have it,” he remarked in conclusion.
