Andrew Garfield details a bizarre trick during his screen test that got him cast as Spider-Man.

The Amazing Spider-Man star Andrew Garfield reveals how he managed to secure the coveted role of Peter Parker, aka Spider-Man, with the help of one particular trick. Garfield starred in The Amazing Spider-Man duology, with his last role in the franchise being in 2014's The Amazing Spider-Man 2.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Marvel has shared a few snippets from the upcoming book Spider-Man No Way Home: The Official Movie Special, which revealed Garfield's special trick to secure the title role in The Amazing Spider-Man. The Spider-Man actor was asked how was his original audition for the role.

"Because I was so nervous and wanted it so much, I figured out a way of doing the screen test. I gave myself an acting adjustment, I suppose, which was: you’re a 15-year-old and you’re making a Spider-Man short film with mates. All the crew are friends. There’s no pressure. You get to make it up as you go along, and it’s about the joy of being this character. I was able to trick my ego to be occupied in a corner.

All three Spider-Man live-action movie actors are great performers, and each brought a unique spin as Peter and Spider-Man, with Garfield showing a more confident and quippy version. The Amazing Spider-Man 3 could have followed his trauma in the years after Gwen Stacy died — even stopping to pull his punches against villains along the way. Given the latest events, he is now trying to get back to his more vibrant self after meeting his "Spider-brothers" in Spider-Man: No Way Home.

If Garfield does not decide to return for a full-on lead role as Spider-Man, there are a few different avenues the actor could explore to further his Spider-Man resume. He could put on the Spidey suit for Sony's Spider-Man Universe, interacting with villains/anti-heroes like Venom, Morbius, and Kraven the Hunter.
