"Spider Man 3"


Tobey Maguire goes to see a show at New York's Broadhurst Theatre that his girl friend, Kirsten Dunst, is appearing in during "Spider Man 3" (Columbia/Sony, 2007). Sam Raimi directed. The Orpheum in Los Angeles is used for the interiors. During the show we pan across to this side wall view and then up to the boxes.



James Franco is up in one of the boxes, wishing bad things on Maguire.


Backstage with Maguire saying hello to Dunst. We're looking across toward stage left. 



Back at the Orpheum later. Dunst walks in and finds them rehearsing her replacement. Thanks to Lindsay Blake for noting the appearance of the Orpheum in the film in her Discover L.A. article "Go On Location: Historic Los Angeles Theatres Featured in Film."



Leaving the theatre, Dunst walks out onto 44th St. An acrobat is doing a Spider Man show above the street. That's the Helen Hayes Theatre across the street and the Broadhurst on the right. 

See the pages about the Orpheum Theatre on the Los Angeles Theatres site for more about this 1926 vintage vaudeville house.
