Andrew Garfield On The Pressure Of Playing Spider-Man!

Andrew Garfield On The Pressure Of Playing Spider-Man!

Not much in the way of new information about the upcoming movie but hit the jump to hear more from the actor on what it was like to discover that he'd won the role of a lifetime as the Friendly Neighbourhood Spider-Man...

"When I found out about being cast in 'Spider-Man', it was like this bubble developed around me," the actor said when he was once again quizzed about being told that he'd won the role of Peter Parker in the Marc Webb directed reboot.

"I was floating in it for a while. And then, suddenly, it evaporated, and I was like, 'Well, I'm just an actor. I don't get to actually be Spider-Man.'"

"But maybe I'll have moments where I'm convinced that I am and those periods of fantasy will get me through." Garfield then went on to talk about how he plans on coping with landing such a huge role: "I think it's going to be a little bit more complicated than what I imagined!"

"And, of course, I'm going to feel a great pressure, which might be one of Peter Parker's great struggles, in having to live up to this thing that he is supposed to be or symbolises. It will be interesting. I think the more I can tie into my own reality, the better and more enriching it will be for everyone involved."

Spider-Man 3D is set to be released on July 3, 2012!
