Andrew Garfield Says He Felt Emma Stone’s “Spirit” While Filming Spider-Man: No Way Home

According to the actor, it was this redemption for his version of Peter Parker that “sold me on the whole thing.”

He added, “My Spider-Man got to save his younger brother’s romantic relationship, potentially. And to heal the most traumatic moment of his own life through doing it for his younger brother, making sure that he didn’t have the same fate, there’s something cosmically beautiful about that. It meant getting a second chance at saving Gwen.” 

And, should Sony and Marvel be interested, Andrew shared that he is “definitely open” to returning to the character of Peter Parker in the future, too. 

“Peter and Spider-Man, those characters are all about service, to the greater good and the many. He’s a working-class boy from Queens that knows struggle and loss and is deeply empathetic,” he said. “I would try to borrow Peter Parker’s ethical framework in that, if there was an opportunity to step back in and tell more of that story, I would have to feel very sure and certain in myself. ”
