Bono And The Edge 'Proud' Of U2's Spider-Man Musical

September 13, 2010
Bono And The Edge 'Proud' Of U2's Spider-Man MusicalU2’s Bono and The Edge have said they are “proud” of their involvement in the forthcoming Broadway musical adaption of Spider-Man.

The pair have created the score for the production, which is due to open in New York at Christmas.

“We’re very, very proud of what we’ve got here,” Bono said during an appearance on Good Morning America

The Edge also praised actor Reeve Carney, who plays the lead role of Peter Parker.

“One of the great things about this casting is that we've got Reeve, who’s this amazing singer but we’ve also brought in his band,” he said.

“So we’ve got the sound of a real authentic rock and roll band performing at the show, which for us being a band, is great.”

You can watch a video of Carney performing ‘Boy Falls From The Sky’.

Preview performances for Spider-man: Turn Off the Dark will start on November 14 at Foxwoods Theatre, followed by the official opening on December 21.
