Did you mean to write Marlowe?

Besides that, its not that McKellen couldn't refer to Macbeth directly, there are euphemisms. He had originally posted that he believes that Shakespeare had little or no direct influence on the LOTR. Though this was a while ago. Who knows what's his take on the subject now? I certainly don't.
