Andrew Garfield’s term as Peter Parker in the Amazing Spider-Man franchise was cut short due to the deal struck by Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures to share the characters across films, but the actor isn’t bitter. In fact, he’s looking forward to seeing what the next Spider-Man, Tom Holland, brings to the role.

“It feels lovely, especially because Tom Holland is a really, really great actor,” Garfield told ET. “He was in this movie The Impossible and he was just this incredibly powerful, sensitive, just wonderful young actor.”
Garfield also admits that it feels good to be a fan again, rather than carrying the weight of such a popular character.
“I’m just really excited to just be a fan again as opposed to bearing the weight of it,” Garfield said.
Garfield will get his first chance to see Holland as the new Spider-Man in Captain America: Civil War. Check out when Captain America: Civil War and other movies are coming out in ComicBook.com’s Movie Release Schedule.
