Despite his attempts to promote a film in which he really finds himself, every recent interview with Andrew Garfield has ended up becoming a discussion about whether he will appear in the upcoming “Spider-Man: No Way Home.”
The British actor played the role of the film in two “Amazing Spider-Man” films before Tom Holland took on the role of superhero.
It has been rumored for months that the three Peter Parkers – Holland, Garfield and Tobey Maguire, who starred in the original trilogy “Spider-Man” – will appear in the next sequel, which triggers the multiverse and a series of villains known to the movies. previous films.
Garfield has repeatedly rejected reports that he will reprise his role in “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” but fans are still convinced he will disguise himself as Spidey again.
During an appearance on “The Tonight Show” on Monday, Garfield directed an alleged leaked photo, which has since been removed from the Internet, which appears to show it on the set of the film.
“It simply came to our notice then. And yes I did see it. And it’s a Photoshop, “Garfield told host Jimmy Fallon, who jokingly insisted he was” pretty sure “the actor was involved in the project.” I’m trying to manage expectations. “
“I think Tom Holland is just the perfect Peter Parker and Spider-Man, so I’m very pleased,” Garfield said. “I just became a fan again, which is my favorite position. To be able to sit in the audience and say, ‘Yeah, you did it, mate. You didn’t do it as well as you could have done, eh?’ I get to be that guy who says, ‘Yeah, I really don’t like the dress “.
Garfield also firmly denied having played any role in “Spider-Man: No Way Home” in an interview with Variety earlier this month, stating in uncertain terms that he is not “participating” in the sequel.
“I understand why people freak out with this concept because I’m also a fan,” he told the dam. “You can’t help but imagine scenes and moments of ‘Oh my God, how the fuck would they do that?’ But it’s important for me to tell the registry that this is not something I’m aware of that I’m involved in. ”
“But I know I won’t be able to say anything that convinces anyone that I don’t know what’s going on,” he added. “No matter what I say, I’m fucked. Either it will be really disappointing for people or it will be really exciting. “
He also addressed the rumors in May, saying, “I can’t speak for anything but myself. They may do something, but I have no call.”
In the first trailer for “Spider-Man: No Way Home” released last month, Peter Parker accidentally plays with Doctor Strange’s spell, creating a rift that highlights the great evils of previous films, including Doc Ock by Alfred Molina and Electro by Jamie Foxx.
According to the synopsis of the film, it will be the first time that Spider-Man will not be able to “separate his normal life from the big bet of being a superhero.”
With or without Garfield, “Spider-Man: No Way Home” hits theaters on December 17th.
