Nicolas Cage is reteaming with his “Leaving Las Vegas” helmer Mike Figgis on thriller “Exit 147.”

“Exit 147″ is repped in international markets by Umedia and written by Travis Milloy (“Pandorum”). Cage will star as a cop with a warped sense of justice.

The plot of “Exit 147″ intertwines various characters and narratives, including Cage’s policeman, a woman escaping her abusive partner, a man that Cage arrests — all get embroiled in a series of sadistic mind games.

“This is the kind of story that turns up once in a blue moon. It is the perfect vehicle for Nicolas and I am excited to be back in business with this great actor. I love this combination of dark and scary balanced with edgy humor,” said Figgis, who added that it was a “dream project for a small ensemble of actors.”

Cage last worked with Figgis on “Leaving Last Vegas,” which was nominated for four Academy Awards and four Golden Globes, and earned Cage an Oscar and Golden Globe for his perf as an alcoholic Hollywood screenwriter who drinks himself to death in Las Vegas.

“Exit 147″ is produced by Lenny Beckerman of Uber Content, Adrian Politowski and Karl Richards of Umedia, Jason Michael Berman of Mandalay Pictures, and Cathy Schulman. Matthew Rhodes, and Annie Stewart are executive producing.

Umedia is also financing the picture, which will start shooting in January.

The plot of this movie from IMDbPro is: A man driving through the desert at night is stopped and held captive by a sadistic sheriff.

PS:This movie was originally planned to be directed by Julian Jarrold and Taylor Kitsch as the leading actor in 2013, but it didn't happen for some reason.
