Cummings rep said at the time of his departure, Hes disappointed. Hes been attached to Spider-Man for a year and he was hopeful that it would make it to the stage and hed be a part of it.Bono and the Edge penned original music for Turn Off the Dark, which will be directed by Julie Cheap Rosetta Stone V3 Taymor, who previously worked with the U2 frontman in Across the Universe. Wood also appeared in the Beatles-themed film, and earned rave reviews from Bono. Shes the greatest actor of her generation, shes the one to watch, he said. She happens to sing like a bird, its like a true voice. Shes a very pure spirit and a very bright mind and she brings the part of [Mary Jane] to life really. No word yet who has replaced Wood and Cumming in the musical.The Edge described Turn Off the Dark as a blend of genres. It touches on opera, it touches on rockroll, he said. There are some real character-driven songs as well, very unusual song types for us. It is much more like opera than a straight musical. Were actually not calling it a musical for that reason because we dont want to put people off. Combine all this with my nonsense and ideas. Stuff I could never write or never had a perspective to write from in FOB.
