Penn & Teller’s magic act vanished from Las Vegas this weekend … Penn Jillette was sidelined due to an ankle injury.

Penn took to Facebook to announce the news Saturday, writing, “We are sorry to have to cancel this weekend’s shows. I broke my ankle yesterday and on doctor’s orders, I am not able to do the show.”

He added … “Thanks so much for understanding and we hope to see you soon.”

Of course, the iconic duo has been wowing audiences for 50 years now, performing nearly 300 live shows every year. Their show was called “The single best show in Vegas” by the Los Angeles Times, and their hit series “Penn & Teller: Fool Us!” — where up-and-coming magicians try to fool the famous pair — has been renewed for a 12th season.

The good news is, tickets are still on sale for this upcoming weekend, suggesting Penn expects a quick recovery.

Some guys have plenty of confidence in their old friends … can you guess who this former professional wrestler is?

We ran into this dude while he was signing autographs and asked him if he had any advice for his old pal John Cena as he prepared to leave the ring behind … but he was confident his buddy had a pretty bright future outside of wrestling.

Filmmaker Roger Allers — perhaps best known for co-directing Walt Disney Feature Animation’s “The Lion King” — has died.

Film producer Dave Bossert confirmed the death on Facebook, writing, “I am deeply saddened by the news that our friend Roger Allers has passed on to his next journey. We were just trading emails this past week while he was traveling in Egypt, which makes this loss feel all the more unreal.”

Bossert worked with Allers on many films through the ’80s and ’90s and described Allers as “one of the kindest people you could hope to know and work alongside.”

According to Bossert, even after the phenomenal success of “The Lion King,” the success “never went to his head.”

“Roger treated everyone with genuine kindness and respect, regardless of title or position,” Bossert wrote.

Before co-directing 1994’s ‘Lion King’ with Rob Minkoff, Allers spent years as an animator and writer, working on notable projects including “Beauty and the Beast,” “Oliver & Company,” “Sesame Street,” “The Electric Company,” “The Little Mermaid,” and “Aladdin.”

Allers married Leslee Hackenson in 1977 before reportedly filing for divorce in 2020. They shared two children — a daughter, Leah, and a son, Aidan.

He was 76.
