Chris Rock and Dave Chappelle — two comedians who've both been separately attacked onstage in recent months — will co-headline a joint comedy show later this year.

Live Nation announced Tuesday that Rock, 57, and Chappelle, 48, will join forces for a show at London's The O2 arena on Saturday, Sept. 3.

While performing a set at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles last month, Chappelle was knocked to the ground after a man in a black hoodie rushed the stage. That man was later identified by police as 23-year-old Isaiah Lee, who attempted to flee but was stopped by security guards and members of Chappelle's team.

Following the attack, several other people sprung into action to help Chappelle, including Rock, who had performed earlier in the night during the Netflix Is a Joke Festival.

Rock was struck onstage at the Academy Awards on March 27 by Best Actor winner Will Smith. After the comedian made a joke comparing Jada Pinkett Smith's shaved head to G.I. Jane, Smith, 53, walked onto the stage and smacked Rock before returning to his seat and shouting, "Keep my wife's name out of your f---ing mouth!"

Smith has since publicly apologized to Rock and resigned from the Academy, and he was banned from attending any Academy events for the next 10 years.

At a performance in London last month, Rock briefly joked about the Oscars incident, telling the crowd, according to The Telegraph, "I'm okay, if anybody was wondering. Got most of my hearing back."

"Don't expect me to talk about the bulls---," he added. "I'll talk about it at some point … on Netflix. Your tickets were expensive, but not that expensive."

While Rock hasn't yet addressed the incident at length, he did reference it when he sprung to Chappelle's side after Chappelle was attacked onstage: "I thought that was Will Smith!" Rock said of the assailant at the time.

Rock joined Chappelle onstage at a secret comedy show at The Comedy Store in L.A. last month for much of Chappelle's performance. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Chappelle joked during that show, days after he was attacked onstage, that many people reached out to him with well wishes after the incident, "A lot of people love me, it turns out."
