Headline: Ian McKellen forced to cancel UK tour after horror fall

Caption: Last month, the 85-year-old acting legend fell off stage at the Noël Coward theatre in London where he was performing in a production of Player Kings, which merges Shakespeare's Henry IV Parts 1 and 2. Theatregoers were horrified when the actor lost his footing during a fight scene and fell, with reports at the time stating he screamed out in. Now the star has released a statement to reveal he won't be going on tour with the production, explaining, "Two weeks after my accident on stage, my injuries improve day by day.”
