Jude Law: Matinee Man

Jude Law chats on his cellphone in downtown New York City as he heads to a matinee performance of his Broadway play, Hamlet, on Wednesday (November 25).

Hamlet’s limited run is expected to end on Sunday (December 6). So far, the production has grossed over $5.5 million (it cost $2.5 million to create). The highest weekly attendance figure posted so far is around 90%. Jude sure knows how to pack in those audiences!

Hamlet has grossed over 8million dollars so far with 2 more weeks of performance to go. The highest attendance record is 97% . Jude’s Hamlet is a big hit considering this is a 3 1/4 hour production and it is Shakespeare.

He has done a lot in attracting new and young audiences to a serious play(with verse spoken to boot!)and for that alone he should be commended. They may have been originally lured by his star name but he more than lived up to the role.

Congratulations, Jude! You deserves it. You Hamlet is great.

He is with Hamlet since 29 may, I hope he has a good holiday.
Hamlet is a hard performance.

Congrats to Jude. He’s a good actor and great looking guy. Too bad he’s such a serial cheater, if not for that flaw, he’d be damn near perfect!

Seeing these pictures, I can only think: I want to be a cell phone … he is looking better these days. Go on Jude!

I am so happy Hamlet ended up being this huge succes for him - and he deserved it too because he is really outstanding in the role. 3½ hours and he steals your attention during the whole show. Very well done Jude! I hope you’ll celebrate by having a loooong holiday and lots of time off with the kids.

Thanks Jared for more photos - Jude looks quite delicious here IMO. Love the boots!

@7, if you weren’t so stupid, you’d only be ugly, and not ugly and stupid. too damn bad.

Why don’t he come to LA and do Hamlet? Think it over, people.

OH MY HOW WITTY WE ARE!

*rolls eyes*

Try and make sense next time ’cause you’re coming across as an idiot. Jude Law is a serial cheater, I would never go out with him if I had a chance, but he is talented and good looking. Those are the facts. Sorry if you can’t handle the truth dear.

Thanks Jared :)

He and Sadie are divorced, aren’t they?

Serial cheater? He cheated on Sienna obviously but we know of no more cheating. Also he is single now and has been for quite a while - I would hardly call him a serial cheater.

He’s a fine man IMO. Sexy and talented too *blows Jude lots of kisses*

Looking good again, Jude !!!!

Congratulations, Jude!

YUM!! Love the pullover, jacket, jeans, boots…sexay!
*blows kisses and winks at Jude*

His hair looks good today.

Jared, You need to get better info. Hamlet has grossed over 8 million as of last week.

I am happy for him. He deserves all the success. I hope his Sherlock Holmes will be a big hit. So far it’s shaping up like a massive crowd pleaser.

I am going to see his Hamlet again this coming Tuesday. *dance of joy*

No doubt his Hamlet will reach the club of the 10 million $ earnings¡ He’s been able to make this tortured character to be understood and beloved thanks to his wonderful acting skills. I wish I could go to see it again to NY to warm his very last performances, I’ve heard is slightly different from the one I saw in London past june. Go, Jude¡¡¡ You’re now on the edge of the wave and even will get higher with your comming movie a Hot-son¡¡

Yeah he’s on the phone to me…”Yes Fiona, I’ll meet you after the play and we’ll go for a nice meal and then we’ll go back to mine and give those students something to talk about!” lol Then tomorrow we’ll go shopping and see about getting you that Chanel handbag you want! Oh yeah that was a dream I had the other night lol!!!

has the deadbeat even seen his new child?
