NEW SPIDER-MAN EPISODE
"Heroes and Villains," a new episode of Spider-Man, will premiere on MTV on Friday at 10 p.m. (ET).
Here's how Sony Television describes the episode:
"Adjacent to Empire State University, The Villeroy Towers, an urban high-rise tenement, is slated for destruction and the tenants have allied with ESU's student body in protest. The Villeroy Towers residents are at a disadvantage in this fight to save their home until an anonymous donor endows them with one million dollars. This generosity comes shortly after the theft of a pricey gem from the Metropolitan Museum.
"Spider-Man discovers the guilty party is a modern day Robin Hood named Turbo Jet (Harold Parino) armed with a homemade propulsion system who steals from the wealthy and gives to the poor. Still, stealing is stealing and Spider-Man and Turbo Jet go head to head. Making matters worse, Oscorp is the company behind the Villeroy's demolition - all in the name of progress - forcing Harry Osborn (Ian Ziering) right in the center of this controversy.
"When Turbo Jet takes Mary Jane Watson (Lisa Loeb) hostage during a rally, Spider-Man sets out to prove that Turbo Jet's good intentions are highly flawed."
