In May 2016, actor Tom Holland will be taking over the role of Spider-Man from Andrew Garfield for "Captain America: Civil War" and will go on to become the next web-slinger in the foreseeable Marvel Cinematic Universe Movies.

This means that it's over for Garfield in his role as Peter Parker, however, what most fans don't know is that he's been pushing for a Marvel Studios team-up long before they finally made the deal.

Garfield spoke with Uproxx on the issue during the roundtable panel for his new film, "99 Homes". It seems that there was no real conversation between the actor and the studio about the future of his role as Spider-Man, and it sounded like he was hesitant in talking about it. He shared with the outlet, "To be honest, all the ins and outs of what happened is a more tender conversation that maybe I don't want to talk about in public in a press situation. But all I can say is that I'm stoked to go and watch a Marvel film of Spider-Man."

During the roundtable, he also explained in a separate interview why he was never truly Spider-Man, however, his own vulnerability contributed to his interpretation of the role. While he initially joked about Spider-Man being a fictional character, he later explained, "I thought I was going to be Spider-Man, you know? I went into it going... ego shit came in. It's like, 'Okay, here it is. I'm f***ing Spider-Man. I f***ing made it.' All that shit. [laughs] I didn't actually make it. I was never Spider-Man."

"I was the actor that I am," he elaborated, "Struggling with trying to match up with something that I'd elevated so high in my mind." He continued, saying that with Spider-Man being such an icon, what he does as an actor is something that cannot live up to the symbol of being the web-slinging hero. What brought Peter Parker is that he was doing the same thing -- trying his best to live up to the hero he created himself to be.

Many agreed that if there's anything wrong with "The Amazing Spider-Man" films, it definitely wasn't Garfield. However, with the disparity between his age and Tom Holland's, Cinema Blend noted that it's clear that Marvel is thinking of going another direction for the hero.

Spider-Man fans will know how different the new friendly neighborhood web-slinger will be when "Captain America: Civil War" opens in theaters on May 6, 2016.
