Andrew Garfield's return as Peter Parker in Spider-Man: No Way Home has ended up being one of the most celebrated parts of the movie. Since the blockbuster arrived in theaters last December, fans have taken to social media to make it clear they want Sony Pictures to give the actor another shot at playing the web-slinger again with the #MakeTASM3 hashtag.
It's no great surprise that Garfield had reservations about suiting up again, of course, and he shared some of those during a fun interview on BBC's The Graham Norton Show.
Asked by the host if playing Spider-Man again felt like a "high-risk thing to do," the actor responded by saying, "Yeah, it was a...stupid idea [Laughs]. It was a really, really scary thing to attempt, yeah!" Given his age, Garfield also had to stop and think about donning a spandex suit again.
"Especially just the costume," he acknowledged. "A 38-year-old man in a spandex - you know. They are [unforgiving]. It was intimidating, very intimidating."
In the video below, Garfield also tells that same story about sneaking into a theater alongside Spider-Man: No Way Home co-star Tobey Maguire to see firsthand how audiences reacted to their return. It was a very special moment for fans, and while the Oscar-nominee is having fun joking around here, he's previously expressed interest in once again playing the wall-crawler if it feels right.
Spider-Man: No Way Home is now playing in theaters.
