Andrew Garfield  Was "Blown Away" By THE AVENGERS; Says He's Up For Joining The Team In A Sequel

Ok, it's probably never going to happen, but the actor jokes that he is ready and waiting for the Samuel L. Jackson phone call after seeing and loving Joss Whedon's superhero ensemble flick..

Spider-Man in The Avengers? I'm sure we all remember that rumor of a cameo that was doing the rounds, but could it really be a possibility in a future movie? Well, probably not..but that doesn't stop Andrew Garfield doing a bit of wishful thinking. While speaking to Vulture the actor reveals that he saw the movie and is a huge fan, adding that he was jealous of not being apart of it and is more than happy to join the team if Nick Fury ever calls him up to the roster..



Q: Have you seen The Avengers? If Sony would let you assemble, would you? After all, Spidey eventually becomes a member of the team in the comics.

AG: I saw it, and I was blown away. And I'm going to see it again this weekend. I have no problem adding to the amount of money it's making! [Laughs.] Joss Whedon is a genius, and it's an incredible cast. I was very, very jealous, and I wanted to jump on the screen and play with them. It killed me that I wasn't in it, but I understand why, and I'm not insulted. But hey, if Samuel L. Jackson wants to give me a shout, I'm there for the next one!


It seems a good lot of the cast members from various Marvel related CBMs would be very interested in some kind of team up, now all we need are the studios to get on board. That's something that is very unlikely t0 happen, but ya just never know!

The Amazing Spider-Man is the story of Peter Parker (Garfield), an outcast high schooler who was abandoned by his parents as a boy, leaving him to be raised by his Uncle Ben (Sheen) and Aunt May (Field). Like most teenagers, Peter is trying to figure out who he is and how he got to be the person he is today. Peter is also finding his way with his first high school crush, Gwen Stacy (Stone), and together, they struggle with love, commitment, and secrets. As Peter discovers a mysterious briefcase that belonged to his father, he begins a quest to understand his parents' disappearance - leading him directly to Oscorp and the lab of Dr Curt Connors (Ifans), his father's former partner. As Spider-Man is set on a collision course with Connors' alter-ego, The Lizard, Peter will make life-altering choices to use his powers and shape his destiny to become a hero.<


The Amazing Spider-Man stars Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Denis Leary, Rhys Ifans, Martin Sheen, and Sally Field, the films swings into theaters July 3, 2012 in 3D.

Would LOVE to see this happen. Sony would be a bunch idiots for not making some sort of deal with Disney/Marvel. I think the audience (and especially the fanboys) would love to see Spidey fighting alongside Iron Man, Thor and Captain America.

If Sony could somehow make a deal with Disney it is possible. Unlikely, but possible. Imagine how much dough Avengers 2 would roll in if Spidey was in it. It would be a win for both studios. MAKE IT HAPPEN!

to be fair, with the amount of money Marvel's raking in from the Avengers, I'd be surprised if they hadn't thought about buying some of the rights back, since they'll never get them by waiting for the other studios to stop making the films.

I would give anything to see Nova stand with Cap and ol' Shell-head.

I can already hear the screams and joy out of us fanboys already just by thinking of it.

And Spidey teaming up or helping The Avengers against God knows what? Oh, boy...I can see it now.

:D

Stay EPIC, my friends!

The chances of this being made is depending on how TASM will perform.

Whedon writing Spidey dialog would be awesome - and imagine how much Spidey could antagonize Hulk and Iron Man.

That would rock. I really do love Spiderman on The Avengers.

TheAmazingSpidey63 - 5/21/2012, 9:29 AM
Man, now that you-know-who made an appearance in The Avengers, the MCU is now opened to a whole new level for movies that will have cosmic/magical elements and characters. We can hopefully now have a Captain Marvel film, a Nova film, a Guardians of the Galaxy film, a Dr. Strange film, an Adam Warlock film (with an appearance from you-know-who), and, hell, many, many more.
Hell, if they ever (though it will take quite some time for this kind of film) make this into a movie (with the same direction Marvel and Joss did with The Avengers) then I'll be so very happy.


:D

I think if they start adding heroes just to please fans theyll start losing there grip on story and good movies. In order to make big bucks. I think maybe spidey but they shouldnt keep getting a shitload of heros cuase beleive it or not THAT big of a roster i just cant see working. If they can pull it off thas awesome but if they cant just dont try.

thalidomide - 5/21/2012, 9:29 AM
Well other than that TASM is still with Sony so there's a little or no chance that this will happen :(

@thalidomide - Well, who knows, dude? The most unespected thing can happen. I guess we'll have to wait and see what the future holds for us fanboys.

If the ycan pull it off they could say spidey's film takes place after avengers. Hence why he not fighting aliens in the film. But u do have a point it might damage story to do that.

No ..... [frick] this shit . I don't want marvel studios sharing anything with Sony or fox . Marvel ONLY PRODUCTIONS ALL THE WAY OR GET THE [frick] OUT OF HERE!!!!
Marvel studios .... Nuff said .
TheOverlord
TheOverlord - 5/21/2012, 9:33 AM
That would be one way to top the first Avengers movie. And this would make a ton of money for both studios. No reason why it couldn't or shouldn't happen. (Even better if Marvel just buys the rights back or buys Sony Pictures all together.)
