Andrew Garfield made a memorable appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, discussing his upcoming hosting gig on Saturday Night Live and his role as Spider-Man. The charming actor shared his excitement and nerves about hosting SNL, revealing that he had even had nightmares about the experience. Garfield admitted that he once dreamt about sending someone else on stage in his place because he was so terrified. But despite his fears, he expressed his enthusiasm for the show and his hope to do a good job.
During the interview, Fallon presented Garfield with an action figure of Spider-Man, which Garfield playfully denied having any involvement in. Fallon then showed off a special edition Slow Jam Spider-Man action figure, teasing that Garfield could almost pull off the character as well as he could. The entertaining banter between the two celebrities kept the audience laughing and engaged.
Garfield also shared his admiration for his co-star Emma Stone, describing her as “magic.” He recalled a lip sync battle they had on the show, where Stone completely dominated and left the audience in awe of her talents. The actor jokingly advised against giving Stone any opportunities to showcase her skills, as she would undoubtedly outshine everyone else.
The conversation shifted to Garfield’s portrayal of Spider-Man in The Amazing Spider-Man 2. Fallon played a clip from the film, showcasing an exciting chase scene involving Spider-Man and the Green Goblin. The audience erupted in cheers as they watched the action unfold on screen.
Towards the end of the interview, Fallon brought up Garfield’s newfound hobby of playing the guitar. The actor bashfully admitted that he was still a beginner but treated the audience to a heartfelt rendition of the Spider-Man theme song. Although Garfield claimed to lack the vocal prowess of Adele Nazeem (a playful reference to John Travolta’s infamous mispronunciation of Idina Menzel’s name at the Oscars), he confidently strummed his guitar and delivered an endearing performance that charmed the crowd.
Garfield’s appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon was filled with humor, charisma, and a genuine love for his craft. The actor’s excitement for his upcoming SNL hosting gig and his portrayal of Spider-Man in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 shone through, making for an entertaining and lively interview that left fans eager to see more.
