Apparently, Hollywood’s previous on-screen web-slinger was partly responsible for Sony and Marvel going in together on the next Spider-Man film!

According to a recent interview with Uproxx, Andrew Garfield says that he’d been pushing for Spidey’s return to Marvel for a while:

I’ve been petitioning to hook up with Marvel since the beginning, so I’m really glad they’re finally doing it. All the ins and outs of what happened is a more tender conversation that maybe I don’t want to talk about in public in a press situation. But all I can say is that I’m stoked to go and watch a Marvel film of Spider-Man.

Apparently, he wasn’t even in talks to reprise his role at any time during all that behind-the-scenes maneuvering. He’s just glad it happened!

Well, so are we! So thanks, Mr. Garfield! You really are a hero!
