Hugh Jackman and Daniel Craig hit Broadway

First it was Doctor Who meets Captain Picard in Hamlet. Now it's James Bond meeting Wolverine.

Hugh Jackman and Daniel Craig will appear in the Broadway production A Steady Rain this fall, a play about two Chicago policemen and how the events of a few days change their lives forever.

Jackman has been on the New York stage before, winning a Tony for his role in the musical The Boy from Oz, but this is Craig's Broadway debut, although he has appeared in the West End.

A Steady Rain is expected to open on September 29 and run for 12 weeks. Previews begin on September 10 at the Schoenfeld Theater. Tickets are expected to sell very quickly, for some reason. Let the fangirl drooling begin.

May they go break a leg. ;-)
