It’s no longer a secret: Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire are in “Spider-Man: No Way Home”. A big surprise that totally ignited the fans. Andrew Garfield has just spoken about his appearance in Jon Watts’ film and explained how Kevin Feige had convinced him to come back.
Spider-Man – No Way Home : an unprecedented meeting
In theaters since December 15, Spider-Man: No Way Home a hit at the box office. In barely a month of operation, the feature film has already grossed more than $ 1.5 billion in box office revenue. A triumph which can obviously be explained by the returns of many characters from the previous sagas of the weaver. And among these returns, we must highlight the historic appearances of Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire in the roles of Peter Parker.
During the months leading up to the film’s release, Andrew Garfield has repeatedly said he would not be in the work of Jon Watts. The actor has lied successively so that the fans can enjoy the surprise. Today, the actor comes out of his silence and reveals how Kevin Feige proposed this crazy project to him.
Andrew Garfield on his comeback
In a recent interview with Variety, Andrew Garfield discussed his return in Spider-Man: No Way Home and how Kevin Feige convinced him. Garfield said in particular that he could not refuse such an opportunity:
I didn’t expect to have a conversation about potentially playing Peter Parker again. I felt very excited to be a fan again. But I got this call from Amy Pascal and Kevin Feige. Jon Watts had an idea. It was immediately obvious. It sounded incredibly fun, incredibly witty, trippy, and thematically interesting. On a basic level, as a Spider-Man fan, the mere idea of seeing three Spider-Men in the same setting was enough. The pitch was really, really appealing.
Obviously, the idea of reprising the character of Peter Parker also aroused the envy of Andrew Garfield. His involvement in the narrative, and his relationship with fellow Peter Parker were a driving force behind his agreement:
We have talked a lot about mentoring. We’ve talked a lot about fellowship and what it’s like to be the older brother, the younger brother, and the brother in between. There is also something exciting about seeing someone you love walk a path you’ve already taken. This character is isolated in his emotional experience and his physical experience. But what happens when this loneliness is over and you realize that you have never been alone and that there are other brothers who are going through the exact same thing? It is a great spiritual journey to take.
Could Andrew Garfield do more?
It must be said that the actor did well to accept the proposal so much he convinced the public. Andrew Garfield offers a touching and inspired performance which made fans want to see more of this version of Spider-Man. So much so that the latter are massively campaigning on the networks for Sony to produce a third film The Amazing Spider-Man. But for the moment, there is nothing official on the matter – only rumors – and we must therefore take this idea with enormous tweezers. In any case, Andrew Garfield is ready to come back!
