Michael Madsen Little Crazy? Yes. Suicidal? No!
Michael Madsen was taken to the hospital in London after a night of drinking -- but reports of him being placed on suicide watch are "not even close" ... sources tell TMZ.
We're told Madsen did have "an incident" -- boozing, followed by an ambulance ride, followed by several attempts to escape the ambulance -- but a source close to the actor says it was "nothing even close to suicide watch," adding, "He would never do that."
We're told Madsen is already on his way back to the States.
Back in 2008, Madsen was taken to a hospital on a 5150 hold.

Kevin Costner Rejected 'Field of Dreams' Offer
TMZ has learned Kevin Costner was privately offered first dibs to buy the famous corn-filled property where he made "Field of Dreams" -- but Kevin turned it down.
The owners of the 193-acre Iowa farm put the legendary field up for sale this week for $5.4 million -- but before it was offered to the public, we're told it was offered to Kevin ... twice!
According to former major league pitcher Ken Sanders -- the guy overseeing the sale -- Kevin got a crack at the place once last year, but decided to pass. The owners reached out to KC again earlier this week ... but the actor still didn't seem willing to go the distance.
A rep for Costner didn't comment.

'Bruno' Bingo Lawsuit Accuser Is a Loser
Sacha Baron Cohen scored a crushing victory over the woman who accused him of sabotaging her bingo game back in 2007 and causing her serious emotional damage in the process -- all for a scene for the movie "Bruno."
The judge in the case not only ruled against the bingo lady -- Richelle Olson -- he also ordered the accuser to fork over $17k to pay for all of Team Bruno's attorney's fees.
As TMZ first reported, Olson wanted more than $25,000 in damages -- claiming Cohen, in full Bruno character, wreaked havoc at her Palmdale, CA bingo game back in 2007 and ordered his camera crew to attack when she tried to take his mic away.
Olson later changed her story and claimed she was never beaten, just merely emotionally damaged from Cohen's use of "vulgar" language ... a story that didn't quite add up according to legal papers, filed in L.A. County Superior Court.
As for any footage that was shot during the encounter, the Bingo scene was ultimately cut from the movie.

Lindsay Lohan Dumped from Film
Lindsay Lohan was axed from a movie because she's not "bankable" -- this according a source connected with the production of the flick.
Lindsay was slated to star in "The Other Side," a movie about a grad student working on a deserted island.
David Michaels, the writer/director, tells TMZ, "Our team simply chose to move on from Lindsay and we'll soon be announcing a replacement."
But sources connected with the film tell us the people financing the film were skittish about relying on Lindsay.
The movie also stars Woody Harrelson, Giovanni Ribisi, Dave Matthews and Alanis Morissette.
And there's this twist ... at one point Brittany Murphy was attached to the movie.
Lindsay's rep had no comment.
BTW -- Lindsay was out at Chateau Marmont and Trousdale last night. Photo of her leaving below. Not too difficult to understand where Mr. Michaels was coming from.
