Nicolas Cage Is a New Charity Ambassador

NEW YORK-- World-famous actor Nicolas Cage is staring in a new line of luxury ads and giving all his compensation to charity.

Cage is to be the third international brand ambassador for Montblanc. As of November 2006, Montblanc will be featuring Nicolas Cage in a campaign entitled "Helping others gives success true meaning". Cage will be donating his compensation to support the Californian project "Heal the Bay.”

The new campaign continues the brand's series of advertising motifs with famous Hollywood stars and Oscar winners, including Julianne Moore and Johnny Depp, highlighting both luxury products and commitment to charitable causes.

"Helping others gives success true meaning" is the theme of the campaign with Nicolas Cage for Montblanc, which will be launched this month and is to be promoted in a wide selection of publications, including international lifestyle and fashion magazines.

Cage won his first Academy Award in 1996 for his role in "Leaving Las Vegas.” He has since been nominated twice for an Academy Award and four times for a Golden Globe Award; his most recent film is "World Trade Center", directed by Oliver Stone for Paramount Pictures. Next year, Cage will be seen starring in the Marvel Comics and Sony Pictures film "Ghost Rider".

He is also involved in a number of charities and projects, and has made generous donations to humanitarian aid programs.
