Andrew Garfield claims he hasn’t seen ‘Spider-man: Brand New Day’ yet… and says he’s out of Marvel for now

Andrew Garfield is now saying he hasn’t seen Spider-Man: Brand New Day, and that he won’t be turning up in a Marvel movie anytime soon.

If you’ve paid attention to Marvel actors for even a little while, you know the drill by now.

They swear up and down that they’re not in the next movie, and then later they stroll onto the screen anyway while the more trusting people in the audience go, “Wait, what? But he said he wouldn’t be in it!”

Marvel has pulled this trick so many times that it’s practically part of the marketing, and now Andrew Garfield is having his turn, trying to sell the idea that he’s totally, completely out of the franchise at this point. Sure. Of course. Wink, wink.

Spider-what? Doesn’t ring a bell

To be fair, Andrew Garfield isn’t exactly picking a side in the The Odyssey vs. Spider-Man: Brand New Day conversation either, because he says he hasn’t seen the former one too: “I don’t want to sound fake. For a movie to make money and for people to go see it is incredible, but I’ll talk more once I see Spider-man, which I’m really looking forward to seeing**. And I haven’t been able to see The Odyssey either. I’ll send Tom Holland a message when I see what he’s done”.

Believe it or not, Garfield says he hasn’t seen either of those movies, and on top of that, he insists we won’t be seeing him on the big screen anytime soon outside of The Uprising.

“I’m not in Avengers: Doomsday,” Garfield has now insisted for the umpteenth time to an audience that already assumes that if it’s not this one, then it’ll be Secret Wars. I mean, that Brand New Day post-credits scene had to mean something, right?**

After the reports that Marvel Studios is filming more scenes for Avengers: Doomsday so they can cram in, quite literally, even more cameos…

are we seriously still supposed to believe Andrew Garfield said no to a hefty paycheck for a single day of shooting? That’s the best and worst part of Marvel: they’ve gotten so good at the secrecy game… that nobody believes a word anymore!
