Rep of cage did not immediately respond to requests for ABCNews.com for comments.

But according to TMZ, Cage shows until last week on the filming of "Medallion", the film is shot in New Orleans, ready to work.

Although that his arrest appears to not have affected its production schedule, Scott Basinger, an expert on addiction and recovery at the Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, said that it should be a wake-up call for the Cage.

"If you have been arrested for drunkenness, charged with domestic violence and continue to have financial issues, one of the things that you might want to look at is how much alcohol and drugs are playing a role in that," Basinger told ABCNews.com.

"My first thought is that it should probably have an assessment all azimuths", he said. "And secondly, it would be a wonderful candidate for a treatment centre.

But it will go?

Cage, who was realistic about his drug and alcohol use in his 20s, reportedly rejects rehab and 12-step programs such as other people do things.

Last year, while promoting "The sorcerer's Apprentice", Cage talked of how he and his cat, Louis, together, made psychedelic mushrooms Cage said David Letterman after a competition to look at a day with the cat "have no doubt that he was my brother."

He added, "I am none of the things anymore.".

But since the interview, Cage took a series of alcohol-related incidents.

Before his recent arrest in New Orleans, Cage was escorted home in March, following a verbal brawl apparently drunk with customers in a bar in New Orleans during Mardi Gras.

In December, he obtained in a similar fight with patterns in a discotheque in Romania, where he has been the filming of 'Ghost Rider 2.

Basinger said that cage exposes some of the behaviours hallmark of someone with a drug problem, including continue to drink despite the consequences. He said that the explosions of anger Cage are another red flag.

"Men use anger to cover fear," said Basinger. From Academy Award winner [for "Leaving Las Vegas"] straight to DVD movies, I am sure that this is a big comedown for him. And if I due to the 14 million IRS, I be irritable, restless and discontent too. ?

Basinger said that it is certainly plausible that Cage was able to stop drinking and using drugs on his own before. But he hopes that a person close to him will encourage him to try rehab this time.

"My hope is someone in the life of the network interface card, someone who deals with him, will intensify rather than watch this trainwreck get aggravated,"Basinger said."".
