The Amazing Spider-Man actor Andrew Garfield is once again pushing for a gay Spider-Man, asking, “why can’t he be into boys?”
\n\nGarfield, who starred as Spider-Man in two films in 2012 and 2014, made the same point back in 2013 when he was starring in The Amazing Spider-Man 2 in a viral interview where he pondered over why there had not been a gay Spider-Man already. Garfield added that he even had a discussion about the idea with producer Matt Tolmach about making Spider-Man’s love interest a male, adding that it would be easy to go from “Mary Jane” to merely “MJ.”
\n\nAt the time he said the suggestion was “kind of joking, but kind of not joking about MJ… I was like, ‘What if MJ is a dude?” And he added, “Why can’t we discover that Peter is exploring his sexuality? It’s hardly even groundbreaking! … So why can’t he be gay? Why can’t he be into boys?”
\n\nIn fact, Garfield claimed that he actually shopped the idea around with the hope that actor Michael B. Jordan could co-star as “M.J.” Garfield said Jorden is “so charismatic and talented. It’d be even better — we’d have interracial bisexuality!”
