Chabon's work, however, remains popular in Hollywood, with Rudin purchasing the film rights to "The Yiddish Policemen's Union", then titled "Hatzeplatz", in 2002, five years before the book would be published. The same year, Miramax bought the rights to "Summerland" and "Tales of Mystery and Imagination" (a planned collection of eight genre short stories that Chabon has not yet written), each of which was optioned for a sum in the mid-six figures. Chabon also wrote a draft for 2004's "Spider-Man 2", about a third of which was used in the final film. Soon after "Spider-Man 2" was released, director Sam Raimi mentioned that he hoped to hire Chabon to work on the film's sequel, "if I can get him," but Chabon never worked on "Spider-Man 3".
