Andrew Garfield Says ‘The Uprising’ Is A “Soul Cry”: “Everything Is Terribly Wrong” [Interview]

Andrew Garfield joins The Playlist’s The Discourse Podcast to discuss Paul Greengrass’ “The Uprising,” the historical epic’s contemporary political urgency, and why he sees the film as a “soul cry” for a world where “everything is terribly wrong.” He also breaks down Greengrass’ immersive filmmaking style and reveals the advice Matt Damon gave him before production. Garfield also talks about his still-unformed idea for a “weird” return as Spider-Man, playing OpenAI CEO Sam Altman in Luca Guadagnino’s “Artificial,” and wrapping “Wild Things” opposite Jude Law as Siegfried & Roy. “The Uprising” opens in theaters September 10.
