Nicolas Cage Is The Surfer In New Stan Original Film

Nicolas Cage in 'The Surfer'
Our eclectic team of writers from around Australia – and a couple beyond – with decades of combined experience and interest in all fields.

A brand-new Stan Original Film has just wrapped in Western Australia, starring Nicolas Cage.


‘The Surfer’ is a psychological thriller starring the Academy Award-winner Cage, directed by Lorcan Finnegan (‘Vivarium’) and written by Thomas Martin. It’s an unnerving feature film shot in a single location in Yallingup (Western Australia), known for its iconic beaches.

‘The Surfer’ will also have a theatrical release in Australia in partnership with CinemaPlus.

When a man returns to Australia to buy back his family home after years in the US, he’s humiliated in front of his teenage son, by a group of local surfers who claim ownership over the secluded beach from his childhood. The man defies them, remaining at the beach and demanding acceptance.

The conflict escalates and he’s brought right to the edge of his sanity – his entire identity thrown into question.

Joining Nicolas Cage is an impressive Australian ensemble cast, including Julian McMahon (‘Nip/Tuck’), Nicholas Cassim (‘Mr Inbetween’), Miranda Tapsell (‘The Dry’), Alexander Bertrand (‘Australian Gangster’), Justin Rosniak (‘Last King of the Cross’), Rahel Romahn (‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’), Finn Little (Stan Exclusive Series ‘Yellowstone’) and Charlotte Maggi (‘Rebel Moon – Part One: A Child on Fire’).

The Stan Original Film ‘The Surfer’ has wrapped production in Western Australia.
