Crush of the Week: Andrew Garfield

Say hello to your new Peter Parker, girls—and our Crush of the Week: Andrew Garfield. This cutie first caught our eye as Eduardo Saverin in The Social Network, the film which earned him a Golden Globe nomination for Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role. Then seeing him in the dark drama Never Let Me Go sealed the deal, and now he’s the only reason we’ll watch the Spider-Man reboot, where he’ll replace Tobey Maguire as the new Peter Parker.
Though he is L.A. born, the 27-year-old actor was raised in England, which means he comes with an irresistible British accent. He started taking acting classes at 15, so playing Mark Zuckerberg’s best friend in this summer’s smash hit The Social Network wasn’t his first role. Perhaps you’ve seen him in The Other Boleyn Girl or The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus. Spider-Man director Marc Webb says of Garfield: “Though his name may be new to many, those who know this young actor’s work understand his extraordinary talents. He has a rare combination of intelligence, wit, and humanity. Mark my words, you will love Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker.” Done and done. The new Spider-Man movie starts production this month, and it comes out in 3D on July 3, 2012.
