Andrew Garfield says he'd be down to reprise his role as Peter Parker – as long as it brings joy.
"It was really healing for me," Garfield told Esquire. "For sure, I would 100 percent come back if it was the right thing, if it’s additive to the culture, if there’s a great concept or something that hasn’t been done before that’s unique and odd and exciting and that you can sink your teeth into. I love that character, and it brings joy. If part of what I bring is joy, then I’m joyful in return."
After a fourth Spider-Man movie starring Tobey Maguire was ultimately canceled, Sony rebooted the series, this time called The Amazing Spider-Man. Garfield starred as Peter Parker, with Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy. The film grossed $758 million against a budget of $200 million, with a sequel being swiftly greenlit.
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 hit theaters in 2014 to similar box office success, but a third film was ultimately cancelled. Thankfully, we got to see Garfield reprise the role in Spider-Man: No Way Home alongside Jamie Foxx's Electro (which I think is one of the most underrated on-screen supervillain performances of all time and yes, you can fight me on that).
Garfield can be seen next in the romantic comedy We Live in Time, which is set to have a limited theatrical run in the United States beginning on October 11 before hitting the UK and Ireland on January 1.
