The musical that has fluctuated between dead, struggling and almost alive for the past several weeks might just cling on to life...
The Hollywood Reporter's ShowBiz 411 blog reports that 'Turn off the Dark' has finally found its financial backers in the form of Jim Stern of Endgame Productions and Norton Herrick, a real estate mogul who has had previous investing success in Hollywood and on Broadway.
According to the article, the role of Peter Parker (which insiders say has already been cast but not yet announced) will be the only one to sing Bono and the Edge's many musical numbers. As for Spider-Man, the webslinging hero will be played by "five different blue and red wall crawlers and flyers."
