Andrew Garfield is keeping things completely real when it comes to his movie-watching habits and MCU rumors. While attending the Wednesday night premiere of his historical action drama *The Uprising*, the actor cleared the air about his fellow web-slinger Tom Holland and addressed the non-stop speculation surrounding future Marvel Studios projects. Despite sharing a unique bond with Holland over playing Peter Parker, Garfield candidly admitted that he has not yet gotten around to screening Holland's latest high-profile releases, including *Spider-Man: Brand New Day* and *The Odyssey*. Because he hasn't caught the films yet, Garfield explained that he is holding off on sending congratulations to his former co-star for now.

Is Andrew Garfield in Avengers Doomsday?

With every massive crossover event on the Marvel Studios calendar, fan speculation naturally turns to whether past heroes will make secret cameos. However, Garfield flatly denied that he will be showing up in the upcoming ensemble blockbuster *Avengers: Doomsday*. He insisted to reporters that he is not part of the project's cast list. Comic book fans remember all too well how Garfield spent months denying his secret role in 2021's smash hit *Spider-Man: No Way Home* prior to his surprise appearance alongside Holland and Tobey Maguire. Even with fans naturally remaining skeptical of any Marvel star's denials, Garfield maintains that he has no involvement in the next Avengers chapter.

Why Hasn't Andrew Garfield Contacted Tom Holland?

When asked why he hasn't reached out to celebrate Holland's massive success with his newest features, Garfield explained that he prioritizes honesty over superficial pleasantries. He stated that he avoids being disingenuous, preferring to actually watch a project before praising a fellow actor's work. Garfield emphasized that once he finally finds the time to sit down and view Holland's latest achievements, he will happily pass along his compliments. In the meantime, the star is remaining fully focused on his own projects like *The Uprising* while slowly working through his personal watch list.
