Andrew Garfield Says Jessica Chastain ‘Rearranged’ Filming Schedule for ‘The Eyes of Tammy Faye’ So He Could See His Mother Before She Died
Andrew Garfield says Jessica Chastain 'rearranged' the filming schedule for 'The Eyes of Tammy Faye' so he could spend time with his dying mother.
Andrew Garfield recalled in a recent interview with People how Jessica Chastain ensured he would spend time with his mother, Lynn, before she died in 2019 from pancreatic cancer.
