Boing Boing - A directory of wonderful thingsMichael Jackson wanted to make "Spider Man" movie, says Stan LeePosted by Xeni Jardin, August 1, 2009 7:15 AM | permalinkMTV Splash Page blog editor Rick Marshall says, "I interviewed Stan Lee during Comic-con, and asked him about that late-'90s deal that almost had him and Michael Jackson buying Marvel Comics. During his response, he mentioned that Jackson wanted to buy the rights to Spider-Man so he could make a movie... or possibly to star in it?! It's an intriguing "What If?" scenario, if nothing else." Neat video of Mr. Lee's reply to that odd question is here: What If Michael Jackson Made 'Spider-Man'? Stan Lee Explains How It Almost Happened!
What If Michael Jackson Made 'Spider-Man'? Stan Lee Explains How It Almost Happened!Posted 7/30/09 11:35 am ET by Rick Marshall in Hot Stuff, Marvel, News, VideoLast month, Michael Jackson's death prompted a recollection of how close he and Stan Lee came to buying Marvel Comics. The piece received quite a bit of attention, so when I had the chance to talk with Lee during this year's Comic-Con in San Diego, I had to ask the legendary co-creator of the X-Men, Fantastic Four, Hulk and countless other comic book superheroes about his professional and personal relationship with the King of Pop.While Lee had kind words for the recently deceased pop culture icon, his mention of Jackson's interest in another of Lee's famous co-creations perked up my ears. In the grand tradition of Marvel Comics' famous series, Lee's response offered up a "What If?" tale involving Jackson and Spider-Man tailor-made for an alternate Marvel universe."I had been to his place in Neverland ... and he wanted to do Spider-Man," Lee told MTV News. "I'm not sure whether he just wanted to produce it or wanted to play the role, you know? Our conversation never got that far along."According to Lee, Jackson had hoped to add ownership of Peter Parker and Co. to his already impressive collection of comics and comic book memorabilia."He thought I'd be the one who could get him the rights and I told him I couldn't, he would have to go to the Marvel company," said Lee. "But we did become friendly... and he was a great guy."
Nice info ... I wonder why Michael's comic book Fated isn't published yet.It was planned for june 2010, but nothing happened.
It has been said that it's not published yet because there is no ending - apparently they were almost finished but didn't have the ending done (if my memory serves me correct). LOL. They'll finish it when Michael comes back.Blessings
