While in an interview with the media portal, Emma Stone claimed that she loved doing Spider-Man. The actress explained, "I mean, I really loved doing Spider-Man. I loved everyone I worked with. I met Andrew there. I met Sally Field and Marc Webb was wonderful. It was really a special time in my life."
She further added, "The recurring theme is the people; more than kind of like the film itself, it's what sticks with me for so long. And so I have only, like, the fondest memories of this whole experience."
However, the only complaint the Poor Things star had about the film was the press tours. She recalled covering nine countries in two weeks and being completely jet-lagged: "I felt truly psychotic the entire time."
Previously in the interviews, Andrew Garfield too has sung praises of filming The Amazing Spider-Man series. In his 2021 conversation with Variety, the actor stated that his experience was 'beautiful' because he 'got to meet Emma [Stone] and work with her' on the sets.
Meanwhile, the actor and the Eddington star went on to date for four years and called it quits by the end of 2015.
As for the film, Stone's character of Gwen Stacy passes away in the final moments, while Garfield reprises his role of Spider-Man/Peter Parker in the latest release of the franchise, Spider-Man: No Way Home, alongside Toby Maguire and Tom Holland.
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is available to stream on Prime Video.

Terence Stamp, British actor who portrayed General Zod in early Superman films, dies at 87

Terence Stamp, who made his name as an actor in 1960s London and went on to play the arch-villain General Zod in the Hollywood hits 'Superman' and 'Superman II', has died aged 87, his family said on Sunday. The Oscar-nominated actor starred in films ranging from Pier Paolo Pasolini's 'Theorem' in 1968 and 'A Season in Hell' in 1971 to 'The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert' in 1994 in which he played a transgender woman. The family said in a statement to Reuters that Stamp died on Sunday morning. 'He leaves behind an extraordinary body of work, both as an actor and as a writer that will continue to touch and inspire people for years to come,' the family said. 'We ask for privacy at this sad time.' Born in London's East End in 1938, the son of a tugboat stoker, he endured the bombing of the city during World War Two before leaving school to work initially in advertising, eventually winning a scholarship to go to drama school. Famous for his good looks and impeccable dress sense, he formed one of Britain's most glamorous couples with Julie Christie, with whom he starred in 'Far From the Madding Crowd' in 1967. He also dated the model Jean Shrimpton and was chosen as a muse by photographer David Bailey. After failing to land the role of James Bond to succeed Sean Connery, he appeared in Italian films and worked with Federico Fellini in the late 1960s. He dropped out of the limelight and studied yoga in India before landing his most high-profile role – as General Zod, the megalomaniacal leader of the Kryptonians, in 'Superman' in 1978 and its sequel in 1980. He went on to appear in a string of other films, including 'Valkyrie' with Tom Cruise in 2008, 'The Adjustment Bureau' with Matt Damon in 2011 and movies directed by Tim Burton.
