The Amazing Spider-Man (2012)

Following Tobey Maguire’s five-year tenure as the Web-Head, this reboot gave Garfield the chance to reinvent Peter Parker for a new generation.

With Emma Stone as Gwen Stacy and Rhys Ifans as The Lizard, the Marvel blockbuster launched his superhero era with heart and humour.

Garfield gushed: “I wore the costume as a kid, so this was literally a childhood dream come true.”
