Not really. But this web-exclusive sketch from Team Coco does something incredible…
Yes, it makes me laugh at The Big Bang Theory‘s Simon Helberg, who is generally the least funny thing about that show (quite a feat), yet does the best Cage I’ve ever seen. Here he gives us nutty Nic as both Abe Lincoln and Mary Todd Lincoln. The real Cage totally should have played both roles.
Try to make Jim Parsons this funny next, Conan. I dare you to try .
