Fan Expo Dallas is a convention where pop culture enthusiasts gather to celebrate entertainment. Nicolas Cage made notable remarks there, criticizing superhero films for prioritizing spectacle over storytelling.

The actor, who starred in the cancelled Spider-Noir, says the franchise has lost its way, trading mystery for mayhem.

Nicolas Cage told a Fan Expo Dallas crowd the MCU has become a well-funded version of pro wrestling, even as his own Marvel series Spider-Noir was cancelled after one season.
