As soon as Andrew Garfield’s reaction was recorded, the audience took a min to respond and then broke into applause and laughter. As the Oscars’ producer, Molly McNearney told Variety, “I went up to Michelle, Michael, Pedro, Andrew, Steven Spielberg, and we told them minutes before the show started, ‘you’re going to be on camera. Jimmy’s going to refer to you as part of his security team. If you could just show some kind of physical support or give him a fist bump.”
While talking further about it, Molly mentioned all the celebs were all okay with it and supportive of it. However, when Andrew Garfield was asked to do the web-sling, he “made his own choice” did something extraordinary, which was “even better”.
Here’s how Twitter has been reacting to it, check out the thread:
