At the Maui Film Festival, Marc Malkin from
E! Online had the opportunity to chat with the leading star of Sony and Marc Webb's
The Amazing Spider-Man revision, Andrew Garfield. Dishing on the seven-month filming experience, his reaction to the film's first image, which depicted of the actor suited up, among other things discussed, watch the interview below.
"It was so long, man," Garfield exclusively told me this weekend at the Maui Film Festival, where he was honored with the Shining Star Award. "It's crazy. I feel like I lost a sense of myself for awhile...It was very hard work. I worked my butt off."
"I saw it before that image was going to be released," Garfield said. "[Director Marc Webb] slipped me a little copy of it. I had to catch my breath a little. It was very very exciting. It was surreal."
The Amazing Spider-Man focuses more on Peter Parker’s high school days and the development of his powers while navigating the troubles of a brainy geek in high school. And starring Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Denis Leary, Rhys Ifans, Martin Sheen, and Sally Field, the films swings into theaters July 3, 2012 in 3D!
