Andrew Garfield on The Amazing Spider-Man franchise: 'I couldn't rescue those films'

Former Spider-Man actor Andrew Garfield is being pretty vocal about his feelings on playing the web-slinger in Sony's doomed reboot. The actor, who recently expressed his excitement over watching Spidey in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, spoke again about his take on the role and the challenges - both on and off screen - that he faced.

In his latest interview with Zaki's Corner, The Amazing Spider-Man star was asked what he learnt from 'being' Spider-Man and the actor replied: "Well, nothing, because I was never Spider-Man. Because Spider-Man's a fictional character. He's not real. [laughs] You know what's funny, to give you the vulnerable answer, I thought I was going to be Spider-Man, you know? I went into it going...ego shit came in. It's like, 'Okay, here it is. I'm f---ing Spider-Man. I f---ing made it.' All that shit. I didn't actually make it. I was never Spider-Man."
