For those who missed “The Social Network” and a few other movies in which Andrew Garfield had supporting parts, they most likely first saw him dressed as a legendary superhero. As Tobey Maguire had done before him, Garfield returned to the character of Peter Parker in “The Amazing Spider-Man” in 2012. Following a period of two years, Emma Stone, who played Garfield’s romantic interest in the film, made a reappearance in “The Amazing Spider-Man 2.” However, Garfield would never again don this outfit; Tom Holland would play the part in the upcoming comic book movies.
Thankfully, Garfield proved that he was much more than just an MCU member. According to The Hollywood Reporter, one of his amazing performances was in the 2016 movie “Hacksaw Ridge,” for which he was nominated for his first Oscar, best actor in a leading role. According to a summary by the New York Times, Garfield had a successful year in 2021 as well. He starred in “The Eyes of Tammy Faye” and “Tick, Tick… Boom!”
Away from the screen, Garfield captivated audiences as the lead actor in the Broadway version of “Angels in America.” He even defeated Denzel Washington to win the Tony Award for outstanding actor for his efforts. But the actor with the challenging life was hidden beneath all the awards. Garfield suffered numerous setbacks during his film career in addition to personal tragedy. He never stopped surprising his audience in spite of obstacles and other hardships, occasionally drawing on personal experiences. This is his hidden reality.
Not only is Andrew Garfield charming and skilled, but he also shows a great deal of consideration for those in need. Throughout a significant portion of his career, the actor has supported charity projects using his influence. For instance, in 2014, he and his ex-partner Emma Stone took advantage of the chance to do good deed after they were noticed by paparazzi in New York City. “Their faces were covered with signs that bore handwritten messages directing attention to a number of youth and cancer organizations,” the Los Angeles Times said of the photos. Garfield posted the URLs of four organizations, including Autism Speaks and WWO, at the location where Stone’s sign pointed. He added, “Here’s to the stuff that matters,” to his sign. I hope you have a pleasant day.
According to E! News, Garfield and Stone fashioned such posters in 2012 when they realized that photographers were waiting for them outside a New York eatery. Garfield’s note asked people to donate Gilda’s Club NYC in addition to WWO.
In addition to holding placards, Garfield once took a risk in order to assist a charitable cause. On “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” he was a guest, and the host asked him if he could backflip in front of the live crowd. Ellen DeGeneres would donate funds to support research on breast cancer if she was successful. “You want me to harm myself for a worthy cause, perhaps? Let’s proceed,” Garfield declared. Naturally, the performer executed the landing flawlessly, even if he was “wearing loafers and very tight pants.” Consequently, DeGeneres gave $30,000.
