Spider-Man the Musical, Directed by Julie Taymor, Music by U2

Yes. That’s right. For real. They’re taking Spider Man to Broadway as a musical.

"We imagine that no expense will be spared in helping Taymore realize her vision for the project (whatever that may be), and eventually we’ll all be clamoring for tickets to watch superhero movie veteran and Broadway staple Hugh Jackman swinging to and fro on an elaborate system of pulleys created especially for the production, belting out Bono’s musical interpretation of Peter Parker’s trademark one-liners, and battling villains in exquisitely bedazzled spandex"==Defamer

My, what a strange, strange world we live in.

As a tribute, some dancing Venom:

    You’re just finding out about this? You really need to read more comic blogs. :) Personally, I’m holding out for Xanadu the Musical…and hey, maybe they’ll make a reality show out of the casting? I can’t wait till they find the new Micheal Pere!

    Hey, what can I say, I don’t have nearly enough time to read comics. Though I did read about a new Zombieverse they’ve created in the Marvel genre…looking forward to reading that. Someday.
