Actor Slits Throat and Real Blood Runs on an Austrian Stage!

Watch your back, actors!

This weekend, a thespian named Daniel Hoeveles , who is starring in the Vienna, Austria, production of the play Mary Stuart , was the unfortunate victim of what's presumed to be an evil switcharoo, according to a report.

A fake knife he uses in a suicide scene was apparently switched out for the real thing!!!!!

He slit his throat on stage with the real knife and slumped over with blood pouring from his neck while the audience broke into applause at the "special effect".

It wasn't until he didn't get up to take a bow that any one noticed something was wrong!!

Luckly, Hoevels missed a major artery. The doctor who treated him said, "Just a little bit deeper and he would have been drowning in his own blood."

Police are questioning everyone working on the play and will be carrying DNA tests.

Maybe it was the understudy?!

Crazy!

We thought LA actors were ruthless!

Dancing with the Stars is trying to check off another box on their 'stunt list'.

The show has featured deaf actress Marley Matlin and also artificially-limbed Heather Mills..

Well, it looks like DWTS might be able to check 'visually impaired contestant' off the list!

In a recent interview, Stevie Wonder revealed that he's been in talks to join the show.

The music man said, "It'd be fun. It's not impossible, but right now it's just a thought… Come on. You've got to think. If I have 7 children, I've got to be able to dance right?"

Thoughts?

As if the Harry Potter empire couldn't make enough money, Warner Brothers is announcing a new "experience."

Starting on April 30th in Chicago at the Museum of Science and Industry, Harry Potter: The Exhibition will begin its international tour.

According to a press release, Brad Globe, President of Warner Bros Consumer Products, said "We are proud to present this unique exhibition, which captures the magic of Harry Potter and will give fans of all ages a front row seat to some of the most iconic artifacts and scenic elements from the beloved films."

Fans will be able to go and see props and costumes from the movie displayed in the museum.

The Harry Potter exhibit will run in Chicago through September 7th, 2009.

After Chicago, the exhibition will be displayed in other venues across the U.S. and internationally.

It will also be updated to include new artifacts and items from the upcoming Harry Potter flicks.

Tickets are on sale already for $26 for adults, $19 for children, and $25 for senior citizens, with discounted prices for everyone during the evening hours after the museum closes.

What do U think? Does Harry Potter still have it? Or has everyone's attention now turned to Twilight????

Oliver Stone is Dancing With the Devil

Oliver Stone has an odd interest in politics.

First he does his George Bush biopic W. and now he's doing a documentary about Venezuela's dictator "President" Hugo Chavez.

Stone said "It's about Chavez and the South American revolution."

Stone was present this past February with Chavez during the rescue of the hostages from the Columbian FARC group.

Though the documentary won't focus on the rescue, it will show "the opposition Chavez has faced at home and abroad, especially from the Bush administration, which has been vocal in its distaste for the populist socialism espoused by Venezuela's president."

Somehow we just know this flick is going to suck.

Especially since it's about Chavez!

Stone's been working on the movie for about six months already and hopes to have it ready for next year.

Will To Be Live Again - But Not On SNL

As we told you a few months ago, Saturday Night Live alum Will Ferrell will make his Broadway debut this January with his new self-penned show called, You're Welcome America. A Final Night with George W. Bush.

Ferrell's show will be autobiographical and include anecdotes about his work on SNL and he'll also do some of his famous impersonations.

And well, it looks like Ferrell is onto something with his new show.

In fact, HBO will air a live telecast in the spring of his Broadway show.

HBO is also now a producing partner of the stage show.

Ferrell's show is expected to last through March 15th. So we suspect that HBO will likely air the show sometime nearing the end.

The Broadway show will begin with previews on January 20th at the Cort Theater on Inauguration Day, and will officially open on February 5th.
