Yikes! Does this show Jude Law giving a lady snapper a left hook? Splash News is reporting that Jude, who’s currently appearing as Hamlet in London’s West End, lost his rag with the photog outside London’s Automat bar late last night.

“He hit me full on the face, it was a real stinger, it was really sore,” they report her saying. Jude has been dealing pretty well with the nightly hordes of fans that mob him outside London’s Wyndham’s Theatre, signing autographs with good humor. So far, there’s no official word on this incident. But, um, it looks like that calm demeanor may have abandoned him here. [Photo: Splash News Online]

Update: Jude Law’s lawyer Graham Shear has commented on the photo: “Last night’s incident was an accident. Jude was blinded by the camera flashes when he left the restaurant, raised his hand to shield himself and inadvertently struck somebody standing very close. He apologized and left.”
