VIDEO FLASH: Spider-Man‘s Bono, Reeve Carney in "Rise Above 1" Music Video

A music video for “Rise Above 1,” the first single from the album Music from Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark, has been released.


Directed by Aaron Platt and Joseph Toma and shot in New York, the video features co-author Bono and star Reeve Carney, and features a look into the making of the musical, now playing at the Foxwoods Theatre.

With music and lyrics by Bono and The Edge and a book by Glen Berger, Julie Taymor and Glen Berger, Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark is inspired by over 40 years of Marvel comic books. It follows the story of teenager Peter Parker, whose unremarkable life is turned upside-down when he’s bitten by a genetically altered spider and must learn that with great powers comes great responsibility.

In addition to Carney, the principal cast for the production includes Jennifer Damiano as Mary Jane Watson, Patrick Page as Norman Osborn/The Green Goblin, and T.V. Carpio as Arachne.
