Exclusive first image of Nicolas Cage as football icon John Madden & Christian Bale as Raiders owner Al Davis in the movie Madden.

Deadline shared an exclusive first look at Cage as Madden on Wednesday, complete with 1970s-era Raiders apparel and a glistening Super Bowl ring. Christian Bale also appears in the promotional still as former Raiders owner Al Davis, his own hair and sunglasses resembling the late executive's style.
