Hollywood actor Nicolas Cage has rejoined the cast of upcoming thriller Trespass, just days after he opted out of the film.

The Ghost Rider star threw movie bosses into a panic when he dropped out of the film this week, 14 days before the cameras were due to roll in Louisiana.

The shoot was pushed back to allow producers time to find a replacement, but the actor is back on board the film project that is now due to begin shooting Aug 30, reports imdb.com.

The film will see Cage and Nicole Kidman as a married couple who are kidnapped under strange circumstances.
