Does Disney buying Marvel mean 'Spider-Man: Turn On The Dark' is back to Broadway?
The Broadway musical Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark may not be as dead as previously thought.
According to a report in Variety, the rumor mill is spinning with word that the financially troubled production will resume production this week or maybe next, with at least some folks being called back to work. The production stalled earlier last month due to "cash-flow" issues. There is no official word as of yet.
They're saying there is no connection to production on the musical picking up again and Disney acquiring Marvel, but I don't believe that for a minute. Disney has tremendous experience working on Broadway, including Julie Taymor's previous adaption of The Lion King for Broadway.
No word yet on if the musical will open on time... it had been set to begin previews on February 25, 2010, and officially open in March.
