Errr... wha?

From Playbill (via GalleyCat):

As previously reported, Julie Taymor will direct the forthcoming musical version of the Marvel Comics hero with music provided by Bono and The Edge of the band U2.

The Marvel character in question?  Spiderman, of course.  Because, you know.  It just makes so much sense.

I'd see it just for the Geek Chorus, if I could get over my Bono Issues.
