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!
