Andrew Garfield had a brilliant response to fans who told him he was not their favorite actor to have played Spider-Man.

The 40-year-old British and American actor earned worldwide recognition in 2012 when he was cast opposite Emma Stone as Spider-Man/Peter Parker in Marc Webb's The Amazing Spider-Man, a reboot of the Spider-Man film series featuring Tobey Maguire.

He also starred in the 2014 sequel film, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, and was contracted to reprise his role in a third film that was ultimately canceled.

Tom Holland was the last actor to take up the mantle of playing Peter Parker in the Marvel Cinematic Universe films, starting with a cameo in 2017's Captain America: Civil War that preceded the MCU trilogy of Spider-Man films that featured him as the eponymous superhero.

In 2021, Holland was joined by Maguire and Garfield reprising their roles as their versions of Spider-Man in the multiverse-colliding event of Spider-Man: No Way Home.

While the three actors respectively put their unique stamp on their portrayals in the cannon films and imbued Spider-Man with gravitas stemming from authentic life experiences, it was inevitable for the fandom to compare notes and rank their favorite actor.

Garfield had this to say at a panel when asked his thoughts on those who've spoken negatively about his contribution to the character.

“I’m 40 years old. And I know myself now."
"And so if you love me, love me. And if you don’t love me that’s your loss.”

Fans were here for his self-love response and disagreed with the naysayers.

The Trump Administration Just Canceled Major Funding For Alzheimer's Research Due To 'DEI'—And People Are Beyond Furious

Back in March 2025, it was revealed that the administration of MAGA Republican President Donald Trump had slashed funding for Alzheimer’s research as part of their purge of all things diversity, equity, or inclusion (DEI) related.

It was also later revealed that most of the cuts were done by Elon Musk's untrained, unqualified Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) personnel—who couldn't define or describe diversity, equity, or inclusion even after making $16.5 billion of initially listed cuts across 1,127 cancelled or adjusted federal contracts because of "DEI"—using AI filters.

Video Of McDonald's Worker Dropping Food On Floor Before Putting It Back On Tray Sparks Food Safety Debate

We've all heard of the "five-second rule," where when you drop a piece of food on a safe surface, you can still eat it if you've picked it back up within five seconds. Most people won't bat an eye at this when they're at home or with friends, again, if the food is dropped in a safe and clean location, like on a kitchen counter while making a plate.

But a floor really should never be included among the safe and clean surface options, especially when that floor is in a public space, and the five-second rule shouldn't even exist in food service spaces.
