Andrew Garfield is standing by his longtime belief that Spider-Man could be gay.
More than a decade after first proposing the idea, the "Amazing Spider-Man" star revisited his 2013 comments in a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly. Garfield said his support for a more inclusive version of the Marvel superhero has not changed.
"I just still believe that anyone can be in that suit," Garfield told the outlet while promoting his upcoming historical drama, "The Uprising," which is set to arrive in theaters Sept. 11.
Garfield said his original remarks were partly an "exercise of rebellion" but reflected a belief he continues to hold. Spider-Man's widespread appeal, he argued, comes from the character's ability to represent people across different backgrounds and identities.
