Tobey Maguire Talks ‘Real Connection’ With Spider-Man: No Way Home Co-Stars

During an interview for Spider-Man: No Way Home – The Art of the Movie book (which was conducted prior to the SAG-AFTRA strike), Tobey Maguire opened up about his experience filming Sony Pictures‘ blockbuster 2021 movie, revealing that he developed a “real connection” with fellow Spider-Man actors Andrew Garfield and Tom Holland. The Golden Globe nominee expressed how much fun he had on the set of No Way Home, describing it as a “special” experience.

“Working with Andrew and Tom was so dear to me, it really was special – a very rich experience for me, all around,” he said (via TheDirect). “It kind of reinvigorated my interest in performing. It felt like a real brotherhood, which was what we were aiming for, too, for us and for the characters.”

He added, “But then to have those dynamics play out – feeling a real connection and love for these guys, and having fun and having a laugh – all of that was energizing and reinvigorating for me.”
