IESB talked exclusively with actress Evan Rachel Wood today at the junket for THE WRESTLER in Beverly Hills.
{sidebar id=1}We will post our entire video interview with Ms. Wood shortly and THE WRESTLER is easily one of the best films of the year.
But first, she gave us some casting information in regards to Marvel Entertainment's SPIDER-MAN the musical that's been in development for some time.
Wood told the IESB that she has been cast as MARY JANE in the musical and that rehearsals start in June of 2009.
This should bring the show to the Broadway stage by early to mid 2010 I would assume.
So who will be her PETER PARKER? Will it be Jim Sturgess, her Across the Universe co-star who has been long rumored (and the perfect fit)?
Wood said they are, "still trying to convince him."
As previously announced, the Broadway show will be helmed by Julie Taymor with Bono and The Edge of U2 providing the music and lyrics.
Stay tuned to the IESB for further updates and for our complete exclusive video interview with Evan Rachel Wood!
