Nicolas Cage has reportedly been confirmed to play one of the main parts in Vidhu Vinod Chopra's next project Broken Horses.
Chopra is presently in Los Angeles casting for the Bollywood gangster film, which begins shooting in early 2011, the Hindustan Times reports.
A source revealed: "Cage has been confirmed for one of the leading roles just a few days ago."
Broken Horses is a remake of Chopra's earlier hit, the Anil Kapoor and Madhuri Dixit starrer Parinda.
"Broken Horses keeps the soul of Parinda intact. But it explores the same genre in a diverse setup," added the source.
Chopra was recently honoured in a retrospective of his work at the First Indian Film Festival of London.
