It's one of the hottest couples of the moment. Andrew Garfield
and Emma Stone front the cover
of Teen Vogue for the August 2012 issue. Inside the issue the two
renowned actors discuss on a variety of topics of interest and even
go into some detail on how their love story began. But first things
first. The two stars naturally began discussing their upcoming
movie, the predictable blockbuster 'The Amazing SpiderMan'.
For Andrew Garfield, the role felt a dream came true and an
astounding responsibility: "It took me a month to decide if I
wanted to do the screen test, but ultimately it was a no-brainer.
I've been a fan of Spider-Man since I was a kid, and I just knew
that if I got the chance, there was no possibility of saying no.
But there's always a pressure about it, of wanting to honor the
thing that you care so much about. It's like a great relationship;
it's like taking care of a child, or—", he stated trying to
highlight the importance of the role.
For Emma too, this was quite a significant decision, more than
career-wise: "The idea of it was incredibly daunting. But I really
liked the scenes that they sent me, and when I looked into the
story of Gwen Stacy, which is epic and tragic and incredible, I
loved it so much. Something was telling me that I needed to be her.
And then I tested with him, and that sealed the deal. Because
meeting Andrew, and working with Andrew—cover your ears, Andrew,
earmuffs—It was one of the greatest experiences I've ever had."
Emma goes on to show her admiration for her boyfriend's
professional skills: "Really, the way he is as an actor is just
completely different from anyone I've ever worked with. I never
went to school for this, so getting to be a sponge of certain
people is very vital to me."
She also made quite a strong impression on him, naturally: "It was
like I woke up when she came in. She was the last person to
screen-test, and I was so bored of it by then that I was mucking
about—I'd been pretending I was Tom Hanks or Seth Rogen. And then
she came in, and it was like diving into white-water rapids and
having no desire to hang on to the side. Throughout shooting, it
was wild and exciting. I couldn't help but try to stay with her,
keep pace with her, and not let her get away. [Laughs]. Like an
animal preying on a smaller animal, but a wily smaller animal."
The magazine also gives us the chance to discover how the two of
them were like in high school. For Emma, things were pretty
straight forward: "Well, I was homeschooled in seventh and eighth
grades, and I moved out to L.A. when I was fifteen.' She did,
however go to prom: 'I did go to prom with a friend. Mostly we just
sat there like, "So, this is prom.' For Andrew things were slightly
different:'My school in England didn't have prom. But I did go to a
mixed school, girls and boys, so that was exciting. I got into
quite a lot of trouble, but I was also very navel-gaze-y as well.
Broody."
We also get the chance to find out about Emma's new project for
fall, 'Gangster Squad': "Yes, it's based on a true story about a
mob boss, played by Sean Penn. I'm the girl on his arm, but then I
start fooling around with one of the cops who's trying to catch
him."(Ryan Gosling). This is how we manage to find out Andrew's man
crush: "That freaking dreamboat ... I think I'm more attracted to
Ryan Gosling than any woman could ever be. [Emma laughs] I think
about him so often. I'm not joking!have a proper man crush. Years
ago, we did a screen test together, and he was just so inspiring.
He reminded me of what I imagined Pacino and De Niro were like back
in the day, that kind of truthful, visceral, lived-in acting. I was
like, That's what I want to follow."
