Andrew Garfield spoke to ET at the Palm Springs International Film Awards -- where he was receiving the Desert Palm Achievement award for his work in 'Tick, Tick... Boom!' -- about the part he played in the 'Spider-Man' franchise's latest installment.
"First and foremost, I am a fan, so when Amy Pascal and Kevin Feige and John Watts asked to have a word with me and talk to me about an idea, and they pitched it, it was like I was the fans in the audience, watching it onscreen for the first time with like, the three Spider-Men across universes sharing a frame together," Garfield said about being asked to participate in one of the franchise's most monumental moments."And like, your head, your little head, it just explodes.
"I think one of the reasons why I think it's so appealing to so many people around the world, is that feeling of solitude that we can all -- and loneliness is maybe a better word -- that we can all relate to, as we are figuring out our giftedness, our ordinariness and how that meets our extraordinariness and going through adolescence and becoming a full person.
Garfield is admittedly still in disbelief that the legendary moment occurred and grateful for the brotherhood he's developed with both Holland and Maguire, with whom he snuck into a screening to see the movie.
