"Spider-Man has his own conflicts, tortured but also having fun with what he can do," the 28-year-old actor said when he was once again quizzed about what it feels like to be cast as the iconic Marvel superhero.
"It's that attitude towards life like, 'Today's a good day to die. You gotta go out with a with a bang.' I think that's definitely an Indiana Jones quality, that fearlessness, throwing caution to the wind. I'm very excited to jump into that."
Garfield then went on to talk about approaching the age of 30, and playing younger characters as he does in
The Social Network and the upcoming
Spider-Man reboot:
"I still look 18 years old, and I can convince people that I'm a teenager still."
"I have my teen side. I'm still very insecure and I can get rebellious and act out and kick and scream and mope around like teenagers do. So the majority of me is still a teenager."
