Yahoo link Nicolas Cage's latest role: proud papa.
The Oscar-winning actor and his wife, Alice Kim Cage, welcomed son Kal-el Coppola Cage into the world Monday morning, Cage's publicist, Annett Wolf, confirmed.
"They are healthy and happy and it's quite lovely," Wolf said in a statement.
Cage's new superboy was born in New York City. None of his vital statistics were released...or word on any potential superpowers: The tyke's unusual moniker, Kal-el, is also the birth name of Superman.
(Sidenote: Cage was briefly slated to play Clark Kent in a Tim Burton remake before the project was scrapped to make way for a younger incarnation.)
It's the first child for Kim, 21, and the second for Cage, who has a 14-year-old son from a previous relationship with actor Kristina Fulton.
Cage, 41, and Kim first met in February 2004, when the Moonstruck star visited a sushi restaurant where his then-wife was a waitress. The duo tied the knot in a private ceremony in June of the same year, just two months after Cage finalized his divorce from Lisa Marie Presley.
Prior to his vow-swapping with Elvis' offspring, the erstwhile Family Man was famously--and tumultuously--married to recent Emmy winner Patricia Arquette.
The duo's relationship had more than its share of ups and downs, even by Hollywood standards, with the movie star couple managing to marry, divorce, reconcile and divorce again between 1995-2001.
In addition to manning diaper duty for the next few months, Cage has an ambitious slate ahead of him.
The Lord of War star has no fewer than seven films in the works, including a follow-up to last year's action blockbuster National Treasure and an untitled September 11 project with director Oliver Stone.
Cage next hits the big screen in the dramedy The Weather Man, opposite Michael Caine and Hope Davis, out Oct. 28. -Breanna

I thought you were kidding around in the header, Smallville Girl.  Poor child. :rolleyes: LabRat

I adore Superman, but that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Cage has cursed this child for life  .

Poor kid. Hopefully, he'll just go by "Kal." But... wow. That's pretty impressive. I forsee him having trouble some day with bike locks ... Paul
When in doubt, think about penguins. It probably won't help, but at least it'll be fun.

I saw that, too! I wonder if Kal-El or some derivative of that is going to be the next "in" name?
OTOH, it's better than "Apple," IMHO.
I believe there's a hero in all of us that keeps us honest, gives us strength, makes us noble, and finally allows us to die with pride, even though sometimes we have to be steady and give up the thing we want the most. Even our dreams. -- Aunt May, Spider-Man 2

Kryptonite, anyone? Oh dear.
I've converted to lurk-ism... hopefully only temporary.

Yeah, I'm in the poor kid camp. Like Paul said, hopefully he'll just be "Kal".
Only the rich and famous can get away with doing such a thing to their kids...
Wonder if he has a daughter if he'll name her Lois? Guess that would be kind of incestuous, though.
