Posted by Lindsey McElroy on 6/29/09 • Categorized as Celebrities

“Spider-man” is spinning its way to Broadway and has nabbed some big names for lead roles along the way.

According to TVGuide.com, Evan Rachel Wood and Alan Cumming have been cast as Mary Jane Watson and Norman Osborn/the Green Goblin in “Spider-Man, Turn Off the Dark.”

Though the lead role of Peter Parker (a.k.a. Spiderman) hasn’t been cast yet, previews for the show are set to begin in February 2010.

Cumming won a Tony award for his performance in “Cabaret” while Wood is best known for her film roles in “Thirteen,” “Across the Universe,” and “The Wrestler.”

Twitterers had mixed feelings on the casting:
