Actor Nicolas Cage has been targeted by the International Revenue Service (IRS) again for failing to pay taxes on gifts he issued over the last seven years.

The IRS filed a federal tax lien against the National Treasure star on March 17th in Los Angeles for neglecting to pay the required 35 per cent tax on all large gifts. The document, obtained by TMZ.com, reveals Cage gave away roughly $1.8 million worth of gifts since 2004 and reportedly owes the government just over $600,000 in unpaid taxes.

In 2009, it was reported the movie star owed $14 million to the IRS after receiving demands ...

Nicolas Kim Coppola, nephew of director Francis Ford Coppola, wanted to build his career on his own merits. So the Oscar winner dropped the familiar surname in favor of Cage and has been going his own way ever since -- which is, to say, every way possible.

With the acting chops to move our souls and the ripped biceps of an action star, you'll have equal chances finding him in your local art house as in your mall's multiplex. Cage has worn endless hats -- and hairstyles.

And with his new flick "Drive Angry 3D" hitting theaters, we thought this would be a good time to look back at Cage's fi...

George Clooney's representative is baffled by reports the star is helping cash-strapped Nicolas Cage settle his debts - because he barely knows the National Treasure actor.

Cage filed suit against his former business manager Samuel Levin last month, alleging he had sent the star "down a path of financial ruin" by misleading him and overcharging for his services.

The accusations stem from a $6.26 million tax lien Cage has been handed by America's Internal Revenue Service, alleging he failed to pay income tax on wages dating back to 2007.

Nicolas Cage is taking his former business manager to court in a multi-million dollar lawsuit, accusing the adviser of sending the actor "down a path toward financial ruin."

The National Treasure star has been hit with a $6.26 million tax lien from Internal Revenue Service (IRS), alleging he failed to pay income tax on wages dating back to 2007. Cage is also facing other claims of unpaid tax related to his earnings between 2002 and 2004, while he was accused of defaulting on a $2 million loan earlier this month.

The actor has blamed financial mismanagement for his money woes and is ...

Last Tuesday I had the opportunity to catch "Dead Snow" on Demand, and it was everything I hoped it would be. To enjoy the film though you truly need to suspend your disbelief, because if Nazi zombies are not enough, there are tons of really ridiculous, impossible events that occur.

This self-aware horror film makes many hilarious references both directly and indirectly to other movies of the genre. Characters are incredibly cliché and the dialogue is woefully written, but it is an action packed gore-fest featuring some of the most delightfully brutal horror movie deaths.

Tomorrow Nicolas Cage's latest movie Knowing will be released on DVD. When you sit down to watch a Cage movie you're at worst getting an enjoyable movie, as best, you're getting an Oscar-worthy film. Yes, we're saying it - Nicolas Cage does not make bad movies, which is something that can be said of very few in Hollywood.

Part of the reason why his films aren't groan worthy is because Cage has the gift of being able to weed out bad scripts exceptionally well. Plus Cage is able to transform a halfway decent script into a greatly enjoyable movie.

Dan Brown's novels have a single extraordinary trick to them that play out in both film adaptations, "The Da Vinci Code" and "Angels and Demons." Essentially, the movies (and books, respectively) are tours of Europe's most famous landmarks given at break-neck speed and cloaked in a cheesy dinner murder mystery that gives them an edge most museum or Vatican tours don't have. In that context, "Angels & Demons" is a success. In all others however, it fails miserably.

The National Enquirer claimed last week that Olsen and Bartha were to wed in a lavish $1 million ceremony on the French Riviera next summer. But Olsen's representative has denied the rumors, insisting the young stars are happy just dating.

Nicole Caruso tells People.com, "Contrary to several tabloid reports, Ashley Olsen is not engaged to be married. Ashley is dating Justin Bartha and they are very happy."

According to the National Enquirer, 22-year-old Olsen's wedding party will include twin sister Mary-Kate, her 19-year-old sister Lizzie and half-sister Taylor, 12. Her two brothers are said to have been enlisted as groomsmen for the event.

And the star has reportedly tapped her famous friends to help her celebrate.

Director Jerry Bruckheimer has urged Hollywood studios and striking Writers Guild members to sit down and end the industrial action that is crippling the TV and movie industries.

The National Treasure film maker insists innocent crew members are suffering because the two parties haven't reached a deal after weeks of picketing.

He says, "For me, it's awful. But it's more awful for crews. It's really sad that two sides can't get together and make a deal. They should have made a deal six months ago."

With every surplus of holiday cheer comes a few Scrooges. Some can't stand all the mushiness, or perhaps they just want to have something blow up to go along with their eggnog. Maybe they just like to sit on the edge of their seats instead of on Santa's lap. Fair enough.

For those people, there have been a few real holiday film gems over the years. Some are disturbing, such as Santa going on a killing spree. Others are entertaining, like Die Hard's Christmas party gone awry.

Cage, who is filming the sequel to National Treasure with Helen Mirren, was a surprise guest at designer Christina Fulton's Single Mom line launch party, held at trendy Los Angeles store Sugar.

He arrived with wife Alice Kim, stayed long enough to give his ex-girlfriend's new line the thumbs up and then left the party in style - in a vintage Rolls Royce.
