TV Spot for SPIDER-MAN TURN OFF THE DARK

A new TV spot has been released for the upcoming comic book adapted Broadway musical, Spider-Man Turn of the Dark. The musical was directed by Julie Taymor, and there's no doubt this is an incredibly ambitious stage production. 

I wasn't really sure what to expect from this thing, I thought the costumes looked pretty laughable, but this TV spot makes the musical look pretty cool, that doesn't mean it will be good though. I won't be heading out to New York anytime soon to watch it, but if I lived there I would check it out. Watch the trailer below and tell us what you think!

Here's another clip showing off some behind the scenes production:

Here is the official rundown on the new Spider-Man Broadway musical:

Featuring direction by Tony® Award-winner Julie Taymor, music and lyrics by 22-time Grammy® Award-winners Bono and The Edge, a book co-written by Taymor and Glen Berger and one of the most iconic title characters of all time, SPIDER-MAN Turn Off The Dark is the most ambitious production ever undertaken on Broadway and finds astonishingly fresh ways to tell a story inspired by over 40 years of Marvel comic books. The show follows the story of teenager Peter Parker, whose unremarkable life is turned upside-down when he’s bitten by a genetically altered spider and wakes up the next morning clinging to his bedroom ceiling. This bullied science-geek suddenly endowed with incredible powers soon learns, however, that with great power comes great responsibility as villains put both his physical strength and strength of character to the test. SPIDER-MAN Turn Off The Dark will thrill the audience through a unique entertainment experience in ways never- before-dreamed-possible in live theater.
