How long before we stop needing to give spoiler warnings on these?
I don’t need to tell you there are Spider-Man: No Way Home spoilers in this piece. But I will.
So, spoiler warning.
Anyway, Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire are in No Way Home joining up with Tom Holland for some fan-pleasing multiverse madness. And it turns out Garfield and Maguire snuck into a screening together to watch the movie.
Garfield told the story in an interview with Entertainment Tonight, explaining how he managed to sneak into a screening with fellow Spider-Man Maguire without anyone realising they were there.
“I snuck into a theater on opening night and just watched with my baseball cap on and my mask. In fact, I was also with Tobey, me and Tobey snuck into a theater together and no one knew we were there. It was just a really beautiful thing to share together,” Garfield said.
He added that he “still can’t believe” the return of his and Maguire’s versions of the superhero happened, describing his relationship with his fellow Spider-Men as a “brotherhood.”
Discussing his decision to return to the franchise, the actor admitted it was a very easy decision.

“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,” he told Entertainment Weekly.
“And like, your head, your little head, it just explodes. So, that’s the main thing in me that I feel about it.
“And then, the fact that I get to be one of those people wearing the suit next to my actual Spider-Man hero, Tobey Maguire, and the brilliant, incredibly talented, heartfelt, funny, good, sweet, perfect Spider-Man of Tom Holland, and I get to be the middle brother, and I get to be in awe of my older brother and in full longing to protect my younger brother.”
Fans absolutely loved the return of Maguire and Garfield, with many calling for them to return in their own standalone films once more, a possibility that Garfield has confirmed he’d be interested in.
