While most people are praising Marvel and Sony for finally joining forces to bring Spider-Man to the MCU, previous Spider-Man actor Andrew Garfield has claimed to be petitioning for that resolve all along.

In a recent interview with Uproxx, Garfield was asked on his thoughts and feelings about the iconic superhero role being handed over to Tom Holland.

"I'm really, really grateful for the whole ride of it," Garfield said. "And I'm really excited for the next one."

"And I've been petitioning to hook up with Marvel since the beginning, so I'm really glad they're finally doing it," he added.

He also goes on to clear up any confusion surrounding him being chosen to continue the role after the Sony deal with Marvel.

"To be honest [pauses], all the ins and outs of what happened is a more tender conversation that maybe I don't want to talk about in public in a press situation," he said. "But all I can say is that I'm stoked to go and watch a Marvel film of Spider-Man."

Garfield was also asked for any possible details on what 'The Amazing Spider-Man 3' would have been.

"I was actually starting to workshop ideas with Alex Kurtzman, who was going to be writing it. We thought to kind of start from the base level, the foundational level of where have we left Peter and where do we want to see him go and what's logical. And how do we build upon where we left off with this deep, desperate moment with Gwen? So, yeah, we got to some pretty heavy places and I was really excited to kind of explore it and be involved on the ground level like that. But, anyway, it wasn't meant to be. As I say, I'm just really excited that I get to watch."
