Andrew Garfield isn’t sure he wants to fall under the banner of parenthood.
The Spider-Man actor, who plays a father in his new movie We Live In Time co-starring Florence Pugh, admitted the role made him reconsider whether he wants kids of his own.

“Life seems to be a perpetual practice of letting s–t go,” he told GQ in 2022. “Letting go of an idea of how a thing should look, or be, or feel. And that one’s a big one [to let go of], because of course I would’ve loved my mum to have met my kids, if I’m going to have kids. And she will. In spirit. She’ll be there for it. I know she’s there, for all the big ones.”
