Hopefully, next time [Spider-Man] will be a half-Hispanic, half-African American actor.
Andrew Garfield at an Amazing Spider-Man promotional event today in New York City.
Sony hosted events with the film’s principals in different cities around the world today, all simultaneously and linked up via some kind of video technology that I will never, ever understand. Stars Andrew Garfield (New York City), Emma Stone (Rio de Janeiro), Rhys Ifans (London) and director Marc Webb (Los Angeles) presented a new and much improved trailer for The Amazing Spider-Man (as well as a “sizzle reel” that you will not see which revealed even more footage) and answered some questions about the film. Among Garfield’s remarks was one that delighted the assembled fans and press in attendance: he said that he hopes the next Spider-Man will be “a half-Hispanic, half-African American actor,” an obvious reference to Ultimate Spider-Man star Miles Morales.
Read more from the event, including a review of the new footage.
