Spider-Man Movie

Spiderman 4 Trailer

“Spider-Man is a classic superhero — a young man who balances his responsibility to serve humanity and crush evil with the shyness and normalcy of someone struggling to find himself. The role demands an extraordinary actor. You need someone who can magically transform himself from Peter Parker into Spider-Man. An actor who will depict the vulnerability of youth and the strength and confidence of a legendary figure at the same moment. We have found that actor in Andrew Garfield. From the first time we saw him in the upcoming film The Social Network, to his glorious screen test, which floored all of us, we knew that we had found our new Peter Parker.”

Matt Tolmach, President of Columbia Pictures

“Though his name may be new to many, those who know this young actor’s work understand his extraordinary talents. He has a rare combination of intelligence, wit, and humanity. Mark my words, you will love Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker.”

Director Marc Webb

I did like Andrew Garfield’s performance in the movie Boy A. I’m a bit sad that Tobey Maguire won’t reprise his role, but I’m confident that Andrew Garfield will be great in the new Spiderman movie.

    They better make this as better than the other THREE. and i want 2 see if andrew can be a wimpy strong nerd as peter parker/spider-man. If this new actor is not as good as tobey, then they just screwed the whole spider-man serise up. And one more thing, “Are they going to put the same villains in the old movie into this new one…. or what” :-z

    Guys, you have no worries about Andrew Garfield, he is an incredible actor and he can play emotions very well!:) I have seen a few of his movies and can play a very emotional character pretty well- they wouldn’t of hired him other wise- and they will make sure everything goes to plan :) I know you’re big fans of Tobey, I have to agree I liked him as spider man, but sometimes they aren’t able to continue the role and you have to accept it- the new guy will be just as good and I’m betting he is already worrying about your reaction to him, so let him be:)

    As a life-long Spidey fan, this guy not only looks better as Parker than Maguire ever did, but he’s more skilled to play the part. I have no apprehension about the new flick being awesome.

    I don’t know why so many people are downing on the new Spider-Man movie just because Toby is not in it. if anybody read anything about the new movie, they’re rebooting it, taking it back to high school where it first started. So the obviously cant have to original actors if there basically re-doing the whole series. All respect to Toby as Spider-Man / Peter Parker, but the reboot looks great just from this one little glimpse. . .
