Nicolas Cage has said he was 'too drunk' to get married in annulment papers filed four days after he tied the knot in Las Vegas.

In court documents the actor claims he and now ex-wife Erika Koike were intoxicated and he 'lacked understanding of his actions in marrying [Koike] to the extent that he was incapable of agreeing to the marriage'.

The Blast reports how Cage's lawyers stated: 'Prior to obtaining a marriage license and participating in a marriage ceremony, [Cage] and [Koike] were both drinking to the point of intoxication.

'As a result of his intoxication, when [Koike] suggested to [Cage] that they should marry, [Cage] reacted on impulse and without the ability to recognize or understand the full impact of his actions.'

The document also states Koike didn’t 'disclose to [Cage] the full nature and extent of her relationship with another person' and didn’t inform him of her 'criminal history' including 'additional active criminal proceedings'.

She is understood to have pleaded not guilty to a DUI charge in Las Vegas and is due back in court in June.

Just hours after their impulsive walk down the aisle the couple were seen in the midst of screaming match outside of a Las Vegas casino.

The 55-year-old Oscar winner had earlier been caught on video applying for a marriage license at a Las Vegas courthouse on Saturday in a somewhat agitated state.

The couple tied the knot the same day that they applied for the license but the honeymoon period didn't last long.

The Con Air actor filed legal documents seeking an annulment of his four-day marriage to his girlfriend who also agreed that the union was a 'mistake.'

In footage obtained by DailyMail.com, Cage was filmed making a scene while applying for a marriage license with his much younger girlfriend, bizarrely telling onlookers she was going to take all of his money.

The couple were spotted at the Clark County Court House Marriage Licence Bureau in downtown Las Vegas around 11 a.m. on Saturday and Cage appeared to be 'very out of it' and was 'most likely drunk', an eyewitness told DailyMail.com.

Cage, dressed in a dark jacket, red shirt and dark pants, was filmed slowly walking behind his girlfriend, muttering to himself.

At one point, the nephew of The Godfather film director Francis Ford Coppola raised his voice and started shouting about how Koike's 'boyfriend' is a drug dealer and that 'he isn't doing it' - seemingly referring to getting a marriage license.

The video shows Koike calmly telling Cage: 'I never asked you to do this', before he smiles and gently pushes her through the hallway, saying 'come on, let's go'.

'They started by filling the application in one of the machines,' the source told DailyMail.com. 'The whole time he was yelling "she is going to take all my money" and "her ex is a druggy, her ex is a druggy."'

'The woman only kept saying "Baby, I am not asking you to do this,"' the source added.

Because the couple were making such a scene, they were taken into a private room and later left the courthouse with papers, according to the source.

The Face/Off star was first spotted with Koike last April while he was filming in Puerto Rico.

They've been seen together a few times since, including heading to dinner together in Beverly Hills in May 2018, but have mostly stayed out of the spotlight.
