Andrew Garfield ‘Would 100% Come Back’ as Spider-Man if It’s ‘Additive to the Culture,’ Assumed Tobey Maguire Wouldn’t Return for ‘No Way Home’


Andrew Garfield will not return as Spider-Man unless the project is "additive to culture" and "unique."

It was the underperformance of his Spider-Man sequel that resulted in Sony coming to an agreement with Disney to share the character so that he could officially enter the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which opened the door to Tom Holland’s iteration of the web-slinger. “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,” the actor told Esquire. Garfield has always remained open to returning as Spider-Man if the circumstances are right, after all he knows that the comic book role will be “the top line of my obituary.” He next stars opposite Florence Pugh in the A24 romance drama “We Live in Time,” in theaters Oct. 11.
