Original Recipe Spider-Man (thanks, Sue Sylvester) and The Amazing Spider-Man interview each other for VMAN Magazine as the reboot’s promotional trail heats up. This is adorable, the ‘old’ Spider-Man (from 2002!) Tobey Maguire was drafted by the magazine to shoot the fanboy s**t about the new movie with Andrew Garfield. Making it clear he’s not butthurt, Maguire gushed: ‘I was certainly curious as to who was going to play Peter Parker. When I heard it was you, I was literally like, ‘[Bleeping] perfect!’ I just want it to be great, and I thought, ‘What a great actor Andrew is. I’m glad that’s what’s happening here.” Maguire continued about how the earlier movies changed his life, ‘So much shifted in my life the weekend the movie came out.’ But Garfield is prepared: ‘I just feel such a great responsibility to the story and to the fans, because I know in my heart how much this character means to people, because it means that much to me. I feel a great wave of reassurance after hearing everything you’ve said.’ Asked about the casting, Garfield knew a bunch of the guys auditioning, awkward, he says: ‘I’m friends with a few of the guys who were up for it. We compared notes and war stories, and we kind of got past the ridiculousness of it all… Knowing that when you take off that bodysuit someone else is going to be stepping into your sweat immediately after. It’s a weird kind of cattle call.’
