"My dad, my brother, and my mother": The only three people Andrew Garfield trusted with his spider-man secret

When Andrew Garfield suited up as Spider-Man in Spider-Man: No Way Home, only three people knew about it: "My dad, my brother, and my mother," as he confessed on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. The web of deceit he spun to keep this monumental secret for a good two years, is worthy of a Peter Parker plotline itself!

Garfield's Great Spider-Man Secret

In his chat with Ellen DeGeneres, Garfield took a walk down memory lane, reminiscing about his time in the iconic red and blue suit. The actor had first donned it in 2012 for The Amazing Spider-Man, but his return to the franchise was far more secretive and equally exhilarating.

"I lied to people for a good two years and I lied to the internet for two years, and it felt great," Garfield admitted, seemingly relishing the successful secret-keeping endeavor. The cameo appearance saw him join Tom Holland and Tobey Maguire in a superhero team-up for the ages.

Even Emma Stone Was Kept In The Dark!

Garfield's secrecy was so profound, he even denied his involvement to his former Spider-Man co-star Emma Stone. "She was like, 'Are you in this new Spider-Man film?' And I was like, 'I don't know what you're talking about!' ...I kept it going, even with her, it's hilarious," he revealed on the Happy, Sad, Confused podcast.

After the blockbuster's enormous success, crossing over $1.69 billion worldwide, Garfield has hinted that he might consider donning the Spider-Man suit again. If this happens, it will surely be a delight for his newfound surge of fans.

As reported by IGN, Garfield's secretive return as Spider-Man created a wave of excitement, and with the film's astounding box office collection, it is evident that the world loved the surprise.
