I thought Spider-Man 3 was a musical

I don't know if you guys know who Julie Taymor is but if there is a director that could pull this show off it would be her. In the theatre world she is one of the best. That being said, my god, who thought that this would be a good idea? Sounds like a money grab to me.

Taymor did the Lion King theatre show and Across the Universe the film. She is money. Along with Edge and Bono handling the music I am definitely there if it comes around my area.

Julie Taymor’s stage musical Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark still has the dumbest possible name, but it also has a new girl playing Mary Jane. Tony-nominated Jennifer Damiano (of Broadway’s Next to Normal) has stepped into the role vacated by Evan Rachel Wood a few months ago. Spider-Man is likely to be the most expensive musical in history, budgeted at $50m-plus after delays and re-hirings. Music and lyrics are by Bono and The Edge; Taymor and Glen Berger wrote the book.
