We haven’t seen the last of Andrew Garfield’s Spider-Man though. In an interview with Guardian, Garfield stated that he was “naive” for thinking he could bring his vision of Spider-Man as a modern myth into the role in a big budget film: “I signed up to serve the story and serve this incredible character that I've been dressing as since I was three, and then it gets compromised and it breaks your heart. One of the emails in the 2014 Sony hack implies that the studio chiefs took Garfield’s illness personally: "Here we are about one hour away from our Gala event and Andrew decides he doesn't want to attend,” the email alert read, “He has a rather scruffy beard and he just wants to be left alone."

Sony was planning to announce “The Amazing Spider-Man 3” at a special event, but Garfield was sick with jet lag and couldn’t make it. Aside from the slight dip in the response at the box office for the second film, there is the possibility that it was personal. The reasons are still not entirely known. Sony has since started its own shared universe of Marvel characters, and Garfield has appeared in acclaimed films such as Hacksaw Ridge and Silence.Garfield was reportedly set to make $2 million for his appearance in the third film, but the film was never made. Actor Tom Holland stepped in, and has since played Spider-Man in two solo films, Captain America: Civil War, and two Avengers movies. Garfield’s run as Spider-Man ended with the second film, with Sony choosing to arrive at an arrangement with Marvel Studios to allow the character to appear in the MCU films. More recently, in one of Variety’s Actors on Actors sessions, he told Amy Adams, “I signed up to serve the story and serve this incredible character that I’ve been dressing as since I was three, and then it gets compromised and it breaks your heart. Once you start removing things and saying, ‘No, that doesn’t work,’ then the thread is broken, and it’s hard to go with the flow of the story.”Īlso read: The real reason Marvel fired Edward Norton from Avengers, replaced him with Mark Ruffalo as Hulk He told the Daily Beast in 2014, “I think what happened was, through the pre-production, production, and post-production, when you have something that works as a whole, and then you start removing portions of it – because there was even more of it than was in the final cut, and everything was related. Garfield had always been candid about his second Spider-Man film’s poor reception, and not shy about assigning blame. And that might have been difficult for some people.” What I’ll proudly say is that I didn’t compromise who I was, I was only ever myself. Asked about if he was fired from the role, he told the Guardian in 2016, “No, I don’t think so.
