Andrew Garfield says cinemagoers should be able to express emotions without feeling bad about it.
Andrew shared his thoughts after learning that a woman who saw his new movie We Live in Time in the cinema cried a lot and apologized to people around her.
The Never Let Me Go actor said it’s a “shame” that cinemagoers can’t enjoy a movie and express emotions without feeling apologetic about it.
“That someone would feel that they had to apologies,” he told The Guardian. “I think that speaks to a cultural thing that we have, particularly in the UK, where outward expressions of emotion are deemed somehow inappropriate or shameful.”
This comes as The Amazing Spider-Man star recently revealed if he’ll feature in Tom Holland's upcoming Spider-Man 4. When asked about it by GQ UK, he replied, “I’m gonna disappoint you.”
"Yeah, no. But I know no one’s gonna trust anything I say from now on,” he added, referring to the time he denied he was in Spider-Man: No Way Home even though he was.
In the 2021 movie, Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire’s Spider Men joined Tom Holland in fighting off a major threat in the climax of the movie.
