When we caught up with The Amazing Spider-Man’s Andrew Garfield last night at the Worldwide Orphans 15th Anniversary Benefit Gala in NYC, he certainly had a lot to say about the highly anticipated sequel. Reuniting Garfield with director Marc Webb and costar Emma Stone, The Amazing Spider-Man 2 hits theaters in 3D on May 2, 2014, and Garfield is excited to explore playing Peter Parker even further.
“It is a responsibility to play that role. And I don’t take it lightly,” Garfield tells Hollywood.com. “I think there’s so much to explore within that mythology and within the tension between living a double life, struggling with being good, struggling with choosing good behavior over bad behavior with the pressures of a city on your shoulders. I think it’s a microcosm of being a father. I’m sure that fathers feel the same pressure that Spider-Man feels and to be a hero to their kids. It’s all linked.”
Garfield was less forthcoming about Peter’s future with Stone’s Gwen Stacey. “That’s up to the writers,” Garfield tells Hollywood.com. “I’m not going to give you the answer you’re looking for. It’s a bold question… In terms of exploring Peter, I want to keep exploring that theme of being fatherless, being motherless, and searching for purpose… That character is a classic orphan. He’s one of the most famous fictional orphans.”
When we see Spider-Man swing back onto the big screen, expect to see a newly redesigned spidey-suit. This was not merely for appearance purposes, however. “Well the suit is undergoing a redesign because I couldn’t urinate in it last time,” Garfield said. “So I’m less nervous because that’s going to be nice.” And as for the beard Garfield has been sporting as of late, don’t assume that we’re going to see a scruffy Peter Parker. “I just like having a beard,” Garfield said. “I never thought I’d be able to grow a beard when I was a kid. Here we are. This is 29 years in the making and I’m proud. I’m just proud to have facial hair. I never thought it would happen.“

Marc Webb’s The Amazing Spider-Man is out on DVD, Blu-Ray, and other various media platforms today. The following is a review of the Blu-Ray film as well as the extras the disc showcases.
The Film:
Venturing into the world of comic books is tricky. It’s even trickier when you’re setting out to turn the comic that started in 1962, in the comic magazine Amazing Fantasy and since then has become something akin to an international symbol for comics, into a film that has already been done before.
From 2002 to 2007 known horror director Sam Raimi took on the challenge of bringing the story of comic book character Peter Parker who becomes vigilante crime fighter Spider-Man to the screen. Under Raimi’s direction Tobey Maguire, (Pleasantville, Brothers) takes on the main role, of Peter Parker, with Kristen Dunst, (Melancholia, On the Road) playing love interest Mary Jane Watson. For its time period its worthy of being in the collection of Spider-Man and Marvel fans but it’s not without its flaws that – after three films – become too glaringly obvious to ignore. At one point, a fourth Raimi film was discussed but didn’t look too promising and might have succeeded in making the already obvious flaws, in the trilogy, much worse.
When production on the fourth Raimi film in the series didn’t occur the dreaded word “reboot” started flying around on all corners of the Internet. Most, including myself, were skeptical. Why was this needed and why so soon? This was the more than needed reboot to a film that I didn’t even know I wanted.
Marc Webb’s Spider-Man trilogy (yes, it’s being billed as a trilogy), in my mind, is going to be thought of as the definitive word on Spider-Man and Peter Parker’s heroic journey to become the title character.
The Amazing Spider-Man is the first part of Webb’s trilogy and it succeeds in doing two things the Raimi version didn’t. It stays true to the comic book source material as much as it can and it makes you care more about the characters.

In addition to recasting a brand-new web slinger for The Amazing Spider-Man, it was crucial that newcomer Andrew Garfield’s Peter Parker had the proper chemistry with Emma Stone’s Gwen Stacy. Watch an exclusive clip of the two on and off-screen love birds’ screen test from the new The Amazing Spider-Man Blu-ray!
“She came in and she was like a shot of espresso,” says Andrew. “She’s incredibly energetic and enthusiastic and she had this sense of play and fun which was incredibly exciting.”
Director Marc Webb, whose previous big-screen foray was the romantic (500) Days of Summer, explains, “When we tested them, there was fireworks. She could take on Andrew’s improvisation and witticisms and one-up him. I mean, it was amazing to see them go back and forth. … It became an obvious combination, because that’s what people are there for.”
And Emma adds, “Marc Webb’s biggest goal has been working out that relationship, and making sure it feels authentic, and he kind of brings it all back down to earth, even though we’re operating in a superhero universe. It’s certainly important to Andrew and I that this relationship would exist in a world of no superheroes.”
The Amazing Spider-Man Blu-ray, featuring a very cool second-screen app with multiple interactive features, is out Friday.
