This morning we had quite the Spider-man extravaganza out on the plaza. The entire cast was on-hand to promote the film, in advance of its official premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival this evening. I took a bunch of photos of the excitement. Read on...

James Franco mingles with the crowd before his interview with Al.

 

New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg gets ready to kick off "Spider-Man Week in NYC," with the official proclamation from the Mayor's office in hand. Spider-man himself, Tobey Maguire, looks on.

 

Kirsten Dunst and Topher Grace watch as Meredith gets ready to interview Mayor Michael Bloomberg. Kirsten will be back for an interview on Wednesday.

This corner of the plaza got lucky, with both Thomas Haden Church (left) and Topher Grace mingling and signing autographs. They were both hanging with the crowd before they spoke to Al about Spider-man 3.

Let me begin be saying...I watch your show every morning. However, a little disappointed this morning with your "Spiderman segment". While you inroduced the actors and spoke about the up-coming movie, I was expecting to see more than a 15 second shot and a couple beats of the drum of the Port Chester High School Marching Band (they to were part of the making of a Spiderman III............I know a very small part). Hopefully your audience out in the "plaza" were able to enjoy them, I'm sure they heard more of them then TV viewers.
