Surprised he didnt get Spiderman/Peter Parker


I think he would of been a perfect Peter Parker ..His avg looks, intelligent quiet, shy reserved characters he plays would of been dead on for spidey. I think he embodies who parker is in the movie "21". It probably didnt work out becasue he looks older than a high schooler which is the setting of the reboot.

Just watched his film "One Day" and the whole time I thought he was actually Andrew Garfield.

I first knew him than Andrew Garfield and I kept imagining before that he is Spidey but Andrew is an excellent choice as well... I just couldn't help interchanging the 2 of them!

Well, he didn't get it because he's 34 years old - that should say it all. Even Andrew Garfield, who is five years younger than him, looks way too old to play a high school student (even though his TASM performance was very good).
