Actor Andrew Garfield is best known for his role as Peter Parker inThe Amazing Spider-Manseries. Having to succeed Tobey Maguire’sSpider-Manfranchise, which is regarded as a cult masterpiece, was stressful for Garfield when he was cast for the reboot.
Following Tobey Maguire’s time as the web-slinger in Sam Raimi’sSpider-ManTrilogy (2002-2007), Garfield played the dual role of Peter Parker/Spider-Man in the 2012 filmThe Amazing Spider-Manand its 2014 sequelThe Amazing Spider-Man 2.

Garfield responded toJosh Horowitz in theHappy Sad Confusedpodcastwhen questioned about donning his original outfit, he joked, “Yeah. I still fit, bruh.” He then went on to explain, “No, I had to get in shape.”
“I had to work on it with my trainer. I was very nervous about that. I was very nervous. I was like, no one wants to see an old, fat guy in a Spider-Man costume.”
The Spider-Man costume has always been made of a “spandex-like” material that tightly hugs the body of the person wearing it, which can be uncomfortable and irritating.

During an interview onThe Graham Norton Show, the actor stated:
“It was a stupid thing to do and a really scary thing to attempt especially in the costume – a 38-year-old should not be in Spandex! I’m far too old to be playing Spider-Man but they asked me back, which was the sweetest thing ever.”
