Pressure to please as Spider-Man frustrated Andrew Garfield

“The pressure to get it right, to please everyone… It’s not going to happen. You end up pleasing no one, or everyone just a little bit. Like, ‘Eh, that was good.’

“(The films are) mass-marketed, like ‘We want 50-year-old…men to love it, gay teenagers to love it, 11-year-old girls to love it. That’s canning Coke.” he said.

The 32-year-old actor’s run as Spider-Man did not go as planned, but that will not stop him from taking up high-profile projects in the future.

“I was well up for the challenge, and I still am. I’m not going to shy away from something that a lot of people are going to see,” he said.
