Andrew Garfield Says Lying About No Way Home Was The Right Thing To Do
Andrew Garfield says that lying about his appearance in the most recent MCU film, Spider-Man: No Way Home, was "absolutely" the right decision. No Way Home is the 27th entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe following the release of Eternals in November and marked Tom Holland's third solo-outing as the iconic web-slinging hero after 2017's Spider-Man: Homecoming and 2019's Spider-Man: Far From Home. He was joined by returning cast members Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Jon Favreau, and Marisa Tomei, with Doctor Strange stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Benedict Wong also featuring. Along with Garfield, the film saw multiple other actors from Sony's Spider-Man and The Amazing Spider-Man films reprise their roles including the likes of Willem Dafoe, Alfred Molina, Jamie Foxx, and Tobey Maguire, to name a few.
The story of the film picks up immediately after the events of the mid-credits scene from Far From Home, when Spider-Man's real identity as Peter Parker was revealed to the public by Mysterio via J. Jonah Jameson. Following this public revelation, Peter turns to the Sorcerer Supreme who helps him make his identity secret again with the use of his magic. However, the plan backfires as the spell goes completely awry, allowing villains and other characters from alternate realities to enter their universe, including Maguire and Garfield's versions of Peter Parker.
