Things are looking dire for Julie Taymor's $45 million Spider-Man musical: After producers ran out of money, placing the Broadway show on hiatus, the New York Post is reporting that actors (including Evan Rachel Wood and Alan Cumming) have been released from their contracts.

Who knew Taymor might eventually pine for the comparatively easy days of working with Joe Roth? [NYP]
