New Spider-Man Chosen

Andrew Garfield was announced as the new Peter Parker/Spider-Man at a Sony press junket in Cancun, Mexico for international journalists attending a media tour promoting upcoming films from Sony Pictures Entertainment, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Apparently, “Garfield was caught somewhat by surprise himself. The actor was in Cancun as part of the studio’s event, as an actor in Social Network, when he was called into a suite with [Sony co-chairman Amy Pascal] just before the news conference and told that he was going to be doing some web-slinging.”
