According to the LA Times, Wood is no longer attached to the show. Ouch.

How much longer till it loses Alan Cumming? And then, how much longer till it just... fades away?

They should, seriously, just give it up all ready

Agreed.

Ditto.

And Spider, your avatar makes me want to cry.

Well if she is bowing out due to scheduling conflicts, at least that means Spiderman has a schedule.

Too bad-she would have gotten me in the door. I love her voice and I think she is a fine actress.

"Well if she is bowing out due to scheduling conflicts, at least that means Spiderman has a schedule."

More likely, she didn't like the idea of not being able to schedule other opportunities while this flounders around for a few more years.

It means SHE has a schedule, not Spidey.

This thread is funny for so many reasons. I was just walking by the Hilton on the way home and saw the February 2010 sign and giggled.

That's a tough break. I still do hope to see a Julie Taymor directed show on Broadway - whether it is Spiderman or something else.

It's time to let this just die. The longer they keep on with this charade the sadder the whole thing becomes.

I think part of the problem is Julie Taymor. Someone needs to reign her in.

That may be a good point. I was just nostalgic for how creative she was with The Lion King, though.

I think "Spider-Man Loses Wood" would be a pretty good headline for everyone's general feeling about this show.

I know the joke has been made before, but I just had to add to the previous post.

SPIDER-MAN KEEPS CUMMING, LOSES WOOD.

As juvenile as it may be, I laughed.

Didn't this happen once before already...?

I seriously believe they are keeping up the charade in order to get all the legal implications ironed out... who loses what, how much more goes into repairing the theatre and whose going to foot the bill etc. Kinda hard to keep throwing money at a project that isn't gonna happen.

Dear Julie,

LET IT GO! MOVE ON!

Love, Me

Reeve whathisface who is supposed to play Spider-Man tweeted this today:

"Just finished a pretty intense Spiderman workout. Wow. I'll be feeling this one in the morning. What I do for the sake of art... haha. "
