Andrew Garfield has once again broken the internet, not by putting on the Spider-Man suit, but by flat-out refusing to do so. In a new interview with GQ, the actor was asked if he would reprise his role as the web-slinger in the upcoming Avengers: Doomsday. His answer was loud and clear, “No. Unequivocally. F***ing no.”
Of course, Marvel fans have heard this tune before. It’s almost a déjà vu moment from 2021, when Garfield spent months denying his involvement in Spider-Man: No Way Home, only to appear alongside Tobey Maguire and Tom Holland in what became one of the biggest cinematic moments of the decade. The trio swinging into the same frame sent audiences into chaos, broke box office records, and quite literally made theaters roar.
So naturally, when Garfield says “no” this time, no one’s entirely convinced. Fans on social media have been quick to joke that his “no” actually means “see you in the post-credits scene.” One user wrote, “He said the same thing last time. I’m keeping my popcorn ready.” Another commented, “I believe Andrew Garfield less than Marvel’s release dates.”
Still, the actor seems more serious now than ever. He made it clear that he isn’t part of the Avengers: Doomsday cast and doesn’t have any plans to return to the Spider-Verse. Whether that’s true or just another expertly executed denial, only time will tell.
For now, all we can do is remember how Garfield’s last denial ended, with thunderous applause, tears, and one of the most iconic superhero reunions ever filmed. And until Avengers: Doomsday hits theaters, fans will keep watching interviews, decoding hints, and hoping for one more “amazing” surprise.
