As we all know, The iteration of Hollywood's updates is very fast.
Some actors may become popular because they participated in a successful movie.
There are also actors who may have caught fire with a movie, but quickly disappeared from the public's field of vision.
Take, for example, Andrew Garfield, who is talking about today.
Born in Los Angeles in 1983 to an American father and an English mother, Garfield himself is a dual Citizen of the United States and Britain.
Garfield's childhood was not as much as other stars, his father did not suffer a car accident, his mother has always lived well, and a happy family brings a good education.
There may be children's shoes that say that bringing a good education will have any impact on the star path? Angelina Jolie was a bad girl when she was young, but didn't she become popular later?
However, for Garfield, this really helped him a lot.
After graduating from drama school in 2004, Garfield, like many British actors, first went to stage drama.
Of course, his results were also very good, and he soon won a "Best Newcomer Award" for his stage play "Eagle and Boy".
After two years on stage, in a theatrical performance, Garfield's performance caught the attention of a big guy named Scott Rudin.
The Scott Rudin is an American film, television, and theater producer, but a well-known bad-tempered boss.
Scott Rudin felt that Garfield had a lot of potential, so he tried to contact him.
I have to say that as mentioned above, Garfield grew up in a happy family and had a good tutor, and his personality is very humble.
In this way, Scott Rudin felt that the young man was promising.
Of course, we all know that people who have a bad temper and eat soft and don't eat hard will always like to have a good temper.
So Garfield, with the help of Scott Rudin, was able to really enter Hollywood to make movies.
Like most other movie stars, Garfield started out in Hollywood with a few small roles.
However, Scott Rudin soon helped him get a big project.
The Social Network.
After the film was approved, Scott Rudin kept recommending Garfield to director David Finch, and finally Garfield was able to join the group.
Moreover, his performance in the film is also quite eye-catching, which has also allowed him to be nominated for several awards such as the Golden Globe Award, and the Media such as the Wall Street Journal in the United States has also reported on the actor's activity.
Garfield, who began to have a reputation, immediately received one of the most important roles in his career.
Spider-Man.
I believe that the vast majority of people also recognized this actor because of the "Amazing Spider-Man" series.
In fact, as the second version of the Spider-Man movie, Garfield is actually carrying a lot of pressure.
The reason is simple, the previous version of Toby Maguire's Spider-Man trilogy is really great.
When Garfield received Spider-Man, he also admitted that "this is a huge challenge." ”
Of course, Garfield is not saying that it is impossible to surpass its predecessors, because Toby's "Spider-Man" trilogy, the North American box office is actually declining.
As long as Garfield stops the downward trend of the Spider-Man movie box office at the box office, it is actually a success.
To this end, Garfield studied the characteristics of spiders and learned yoga, hoping to incorporate these into the performance.
Unfortunately, The Amazing Spider-Man grossed less than Spider-Man 3 at the North American box office, at just $262 million.
However, Garfield's Spider-Man has received most media acclaim.
But as I said many times before, capital looks at interests, commercial films are not allowed to be popular, no matter how well you play the role, what is the use of making money?
However, the following "The Amazing Spider-Man 2", the North American box office has fallen to more than $200 million, and the downward trend of Spider-Man movies must be stopped by the filmmaker Sony Pictures.
As a result, everyone knows that the original "The Amazing Spider-Man 3" was cut off, and the rebooted Spider-Man was classified into the Marvel Universe, played by Dutch brother Tom Holland.
Strictly speaking, it's not right to blame the actors for a movie's success or failure, not to mention that Garfield's performance in the "The Extraordinary" series is not bad.
It can only be said that in Hollywood, where capital controls everything, these are very normal things.
When Garfield learned that he could no longer play Spider-Man, although he was devastated, he still said that he was very optimistic about Spider-Man of the Dutch brother, even if he was a good audience.
Of course, it is said that it is so, but he has been starring in and has paid a lot of effort for it, saying that it is gone, and then he immediately has to watch others wear the robes that once belonged to him.
No matter how good the personality and the humble person is, his heart will inevitably be affected.
Even, at that time, the reason why Garfield broke up with the female ticket Stone Sister, some media believed that Garfield was hit by the loss of Spider-Man, resulting in the feelings of the two sides began to cool.
In fact, for Garfield, although it is a pity that he can no longer play Spider-Man, he still has his own pursuits.
Yes, it's his old stage play.
In fact, except for the first few years in Hollywood and the play of Spider-Man, Garfield has never forgotten to perform on stage.
For example, in the year he received "The Amazing Spider-Man", he also filmed the drama "The Death of a Salesman", which also made him nominated for the Tony Award for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama.
Incidentally, the producer of Death of a Salesman is Scott Rudin.
After the end of Spider-Man's career, Garfield's "Angel in America" drama won him the Tony Award for Best Actor in one fell swoop.
At the same time, although he did not stop in Hollywood.
His performance in 2016's "Silence" received a lot of media awards, and the same year's "Hacksaw Ridge" also made him an Oscar nomination for best actor.
Did Andrew Garfield's career count as smooth?
Of course not, after all, the starring "The Amazing Spider-Man" has been cut.
But Hollywood is like this, every day is people coming and going, some people leave, some people come in, some people fall down and get up again, and some people pounce on the street and keep sinking.
If this road is not smooth, then find another way, if not, then chisel out one yourself.
