Hear U2 Perform their Spider-Man Theme Song

Or, at least, I presume it’s Mephisto - - the synopsis THR has just refers to him as “the devil." Anyway, the producers in negotiations right now with Irish actor Ciaran Hinds about playing the prince of lies. He’s had a diverse filmography, but the role most relevant to genre fans is his turn as Dumbeldore’s young brother, Aberforth, in the next HARRY POTTER movies.
