A Los Angeles showing of “The Irishman” could have ended in disaster for Al Pacino.

A spy tells us that director Martin Scorsese introduced all the stars of the Netflix movie on the stage at TCL Chinese Theater in Hollywood Thursday night and “before the film they all had to head from the stage and up [the auditorium] steps to their seats. Because it was pitch black in the theater, Pacino tripped twice coming up the stairs. The other actors helped him.”

There was a reception later at the Hollywood Roosevelt with guests including Pacino, Ray Romano and Sebastian Maniscalco.
