Nicolas Cage will continue his pattern of appearing in flicks alongside blond actresses who are younger, more attractive, and sexier than him: Malin Akerman has been picked to appear in the new Cage film Medallion. The Simon West–helmed film features Cage as a father and former thief who has only a few hours to find his daughter, who has been kidnapped and locked in the trunk of a medallion taxi cab. Akerman will play Cage’s former girlfriend — and fellow bank robber — who helps him save his daughter. The Italian Job meets Taken, anyone? [HR]
