Weston Cage Coppola, 33, is actor Nicolas Cage’s eldest son. Per People, The Face/Off actor has three children from three different relationships and marriages: he shares Weston with Fulton and has another son, 18-year-old Kal-El Cage, with his ex-wife Alice Kim; as well as one-year-old daughter August Francesca, with his current wife, Riko Shibata.

In case you were wondering why his children have “Coppola” in their name, it’s because Cage is related to The Godfather director Francis Ford Coppola, who is his uncle.
