Andrew Garfield has made his fears known about the public discovering his his Spider-Man: No Way Home cameo. The Tick, Tick…Boom! actor, 38, opened up during an interview on the Happy Sad Confused podcast about how he was terrified about the person from DoorDash who delivered his tacos on set would uncover the mystery.

“This was my first night in Atlanta and I’m with two of my best friends, one of whom is on The Walking Dead, which shoots out there. We’re at the house that they’re putting me up in and I ordered takeout for us.”

Due to Covid, Garfield thought he kept his identity sealed by having to wear masks and hats. However, the delivery guy was able to figure out the actor behind the mask. Garfield elaborated how the delivery guy believed he delivered the food to Andrew Garfield himself.

“This is my first night! I’m like, Oh my god, I’m gonna get rumbled that I’m in Atlanta immediately,” he said. “Lo and behold, the guy goes like, ‘I think I just delivered food to Andrew Garfield.'” 

Garfield further explained how the delivery guy asked him to ID despite not ordering any alcohol. In addition, he asked the delivery guy to social-distance due to his fear of catching Covid. If Garfield tested positive, it would halt production.

“I think he called me rude, which I definitely wasn’t,” he said. “I did ask to do social distancing, but I obviously upset the man. I didn’t mean to and I apologize for anything that may have been misconstrued as being rude — I don’t like upsetting people.”

Ultimately, Garfield had one of his friends show the delivery guy their ID. After the incident, the presumed delivery guy posted his experience with Garfield and rumors began to spread. Garfield vehemently denied this until recently he confirmed it was true. Garfield attempted to keep his role a secret and lied to the news outlets about it. He even kept this secret from his close friend/former girlfriend, Emma Stone about it. The only people who knew about it were his parents and brother.

Spider-Man: No Way Home is available in theaters. Fans can stream The Amazing Spider-Man on Amazon Prime and check out the rest of the interview here.
