Andrew Garfield opens up about his mom’s passing during ‘The Eyes of Tammy Faye’ filming: “...Those last two weeks I got to be with her were probably the most profound two weeks of my life. It was full of grace in the midst of the terrible tragedy.”
has extricated himself from with a little superhuman charm. Garfield, who played the webslinger in two Sony films in 2012 and 2014, returned to that church — where the couple used to preach — over many subsequent Sundays with his colleague Jessica Chastain.
“He sent me a video of his very first makeup test, and he was already doing his accent. To be honest, it scared me a little bit. It was a kick in my butt, working with Andrew. He’s someone that you have to show up for every day or no one is going to notice you in the movie,” she says. The film feels particularly timely, Garfield says, given the consumerist frenzy populating social media, which exists so people can share photos of elaborate vacations and shopping binges.
News of her imminent passing came during filming in late 2019, at which point Chastain and Searchlight Pictures co-chief David Greenbaum sent Garfield back to England to be by his mother’s side. Miranda had been toying with the idea of adapting “Tick, Tick” as a film for years. As much a student of musical theater as one of its modern masters, the “Hamilton” creator caught Garfield in the London staging of “Angels in America’’ and says he was blown away.
When not spinning webs as Spider-Man, Garfield played the betrayed Eduardo Saverin in the Oscar-winning “The Social Network,” a reformed juvenile killer in the harrowing “Boy A,” a young father facing financial ruin in “99 Homes” and a tortured priest in Martin Scorsese’s “Silence.” Even his take on Peter Parker was considered by critics to be the broodiest of the bunch. It’s safe to say that music and laughter have not come easy to Garfield in Hollywood.
