Now I Am Become Taymor

Look, I understand that none of my childhood pop culture interest were particularly original, but how many times can you rape one childhood?

Tony Award winner Julie Taymor is set to direct a Broadway musical based on the adventures of the superhero Spider-Man, according to a statement from Marvel Studios. U2 musicians Bono and The Edge will compose an original score for the project. A reading will be held this summer, but no casting or Broadway dates have yet been announced.

Via. I'm going to retreat into action figures now.
