I don't hate it, but another Brit?


I mean come on.

Not that we need yet another Spider-Man movie anyway, but why this obsession with British actors?

Andrew Garfield is technically American seeing that he was born in the city of Los Angeles

But once he opens his mouth, you know he's not American;-)

Spiderman was brought into The Marvel universe because he's a big part of the phase 3 story that marvel is about to start with.

I dont think its an obsession, if the actor knocks out the audition they get the part regardless of Nationality.

Because they're reliable actors and they're cheaper.

Nothing complicated - British actors are just more talented and well rounded. The american acting scene is more fake these days then ever! Think about it? Why is it that some of your best actors are 50+?
