What would you do if you found yourself
face-to-face with Spider-Man?
If you're Emma Stone, apparently you've
just got to put your hands on him.
I sat down with Stone and her costar (and
real-life beau) Andrew Garfield to talk about their upcoming movie, "The Amazing
Spider-Man," and I asked them both their reactions to seeing Garfield in the
full Spidey costume for the first time. Stone admitted that when she saw him in
the suit, she got a bit handsy.
"It was so tactile," Stone said, "I
immediately was just touching him. Because you never expect to be in the room
with Spider-Man, and the suit was just so well made and so
beautiful."
Garfield answered that his reaction to
seeing himself in the costume inspired a mix of feelings: "It was overwhelming,
of course, and surreal, and you kind of can't believe it. And that kind of
remained throughout, actually. I didn't quite believe it, that it was me in the
suit." He went on to say that the feeling of disbelief helped ground him. He
said, "I think if I started to believe it then I'd lose my mind a
little."
Garfield explained that the process of
designing the suit and tailoring it to fit him perfectly was an arduous
four-month long task. He said, "I had to fly certain places to get certain body
scans, and my body was changing because I was training."
