Andrew Garfield is not swinging to a big screen as your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man again any time soon.

“I’m gonna disappoint you,” Garfield, 41, told GQ in a new interview published on Thursday, Jan. 2, when asked about rumors he will appear in a fourth Spider-Man movie starring Tom Holland. “Yeah, no. But I know no one’s gonna trust anything I say from now on.”

Garfield’s comment refers to the times he denied he was starring in Spider-Man: No Way Home before that movie hit theaters in 2021. The We Live in Time star played the version of Peter Parker he previously portrayed in The Amazing Spider-Man (2012) and The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014) in the multiverse-spanning Marvel epic that also saw Tobey Maguire return to Spidey.

Garfield did share his prerequisites for returning to the Marvel fold though.

“If it felt in line with my soul and was gonna be fun,” he told GQ. “Maybe I’m gonna have like five kids at some point, and I’m gonna need to start saving up for the school tuition or something.”

In October, Garfield told PEOPLE that it would take a “great idea, a great concept” for him to play Peter Parker again. “Something that is surprising and odd and fun, joyful. It has to be worthwhile,” he said.

“I’m so happy that they had the courage to do it. It’s such a great idea,” Garfield told PEOPLE of No Way Home. “I would never have had that foresight. So I’m really just proud and happy that I get to be a part of that. But if there’s something that can be concocted and thought up that feels additive to the canon of that character, then for sure.”

Holland’s take on Spider-Man debuted in 2016’s Captain America: Civil War, which led to his first solo movie, Spider-Man: Homecoming in 2017. Spider-Man: Far from Home followed in 2019, and No Way Home in 2021. It was unclear if a fourth Holland-starring movie was on the way until the actor told Jimmy Fallon it was “happening.”

“Next summer, we start shooting, everything’s good to go. We’re nearly there,” Holland, 28, said on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in October 2024. “Super exciting. Yeah, I can’t wait.”

Garfield recently starred in We Live in Time, his first movie since 2021, and is next set to star in Luca Guadagnino’s After the Hunt with Julia Roberts. Meanwhile, Holland is set to star in Christopher Nolan’s upcoming adaptation of Homer’s The Odyssey.
