Andrew Garfield Reveals His Condition for Returning as Spider-Man, Tied to His Ambitions; Find Out What It Is

In a recent statement, Andrew Garfield hinted at potentially playing Spider-Man once more, though only under an unconventional circumstance. The actor has reaffirmed his interest in taking up the role again, but he’s suggested that this might happen if something exceptionally extraordinary – far beyond the norm for superhero films – were to occur.

At Middle East Film & Comic Con, according to Entertainment Tonight, Garfield expressed that any potential role would need to be quite unusual. He’s interested in something truly bizarre or unique, something offbeat, unexpected, and shocking – similar to the creative liberty they enjoy with the animated ‘Spider-Verse’ films.

Reflecting on his past exit from the role of Spider-Man, Garfield previously mentioned that he hadn’t definitively closed the door on Spidey. He expressed that any potential return to the superhero genre would need to align with his creative preferences and offer something impactful, culturally relevant, or emotionally resonant.

He expressed his readiness to return if the situation was fitting, if it enriched the culture, if there was a groundbreaking, unusual, and thrilling idea yet unexplored. He also mentioned his fondness for that character and the happiness it brings. If part of what he offers is joy, then he too finds joy in the return.

In 2012, Andrew Garfield first donned the Spider-Man suit in The Amazing Spider-Man, and then reappeared as the character in its 2014 sequel. To the joy of fans, he returned to the role in 2021’s Spider-Man: No Way Home, a film that grossed an impressive $1.9 billion globally. However, Garfield managed to keep his cameo for the movie a secret from both fans and media quite effectively.

Despite his assertions to the contrary, it’s understandable that fans might remain skeptical about him not being in Spider-Man 4. He confided to GQ, “I’m afraid I’ll let you down. Yes, absolutely not. But I realize no one will believe anything I say from now on.

Despite the movie’s box office triumph, the actor remains hesitant about reprising the character, expressing a preference for an innovative, daring script—something far from the typical superhero genre.
