James McAvoy played the titular character in Macbeth last night in London, but the theatrical production took a turn for the REAL when an audience member fell iill and collapsed!

Not even skipping a beat, James switched mindsets from Shakespeare to superhero and jumped into the audience to offer his assistance!!!

We hear that if you missed out on the week-long series of one man shows from Mike Tyson in Vegas, you missed out on something really special — and kinda weird!

Regardless how you truly feel about Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth, it's coming to Broadway!

It's true!

And get this: Spike Lee is set to helm it!

Spike Freakin' Lee!

He's in final talks after discussing what changes need to be made as they transition to the Broadway stage.

We're hearing that Spike even brought in theater owner Jimmy Nederlander Jr., who owns a lots Broadway venues and is interested in hosting the Tyson show at one of them.

Oh, and this is all happening fast — we could be seeing Mike's tattooed face on Broadway by the end of summer!

Did U see the first run?? How was it??

So, would you be surprised to hear that Joe Namath actually went to the premiere of Namath at the HBO theater in NYC??

No??

Us either!

But we're still super glad to see him out there, and that he's giving it his support. He's a legend in the sport, and football and his name are pretty much inseparable at this point!

The HBO documentary must have been a trip for the sports star to watch, because we're willing to bet that watching yourself in anything is super weird.

We wonder if he liked it!

Seems like kind of a waste to just have your super expensive Super Bowl ad just on TV, right?

Right! Well it looks like those Super Bowl ads might make their way to the silver screen after the big sports night.

Screenvision is reportedly trying to get those ads onto their 15,000 screens — especially because of a survey they took the last time:

"The survey results indicated that among those groups who recalled seeing the ads both on TV and in theaters, "brand affinity" (favorable opinion) was 41 percent higher and "brand awareness" 27 percent higher than among those just seeing the ads on TV."

That's pretty significant, and if you ask us, totally worth it too.

Maybe we should look into a FitPerez commercial to put into theaters??

Ha!
