Memeskins has created a hilarious Nicolas Cage [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casetify-1) case, in which the actor's face is superimposed onto Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa.

The iPhone case is a continuation of 'Nic Cage as Everyone,' a single topic blog which, since its launch in 2009, has been dedicated to photoshopping the actor's face into any and every photograph possible. Though it's been five years, the meme continues to be absolutely hilarious (not to mention profitable).

The blog was created as a form of [fan-art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/salvador-dal-collection) intended to honor the American actor and his impressive body of work. It was established on the “belief that everything in life would be better with a little more Nic Cage." Whether or not this is true, the Nicolas Cage iPhone case is unarguably comical.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Actor-inspired Phone Cases:** More actors could be featured on phone cases, creating opportunities for fan memorabilia companies.
- **Meme-based Fashion Items:** Meme-inspired products could attract a younger and wider demographic in the retail industry.
- **Celebrity Fan Art Merchandising:** Merchandise featuring fan art could be a lucrative market for actors and their fanbase.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Phone Accessories:** Companies specializing in phone accessories can tap into fan culture by offering cases with popular actors' images.
- **Retail Industry:** Retailers that target a younger market could diversify their offerings with meme-based fashion items.
- **Entertainment Merchandising:** Merchandise based on pop culture phenomena like fan art a la 'Nic Cage as Everyone' could be a lucrative avenue for companies or celebrities.
