Transcript

I'm Andrew Garfield.

And I'm Florence Pugh.

And this is the Wired

Autocomplete Interview. Complete.

Well done. I helped you.

[upbeat jazzy music]

You heard it here first.

This has been an incredible day of exclusives.

[Florence guffaws]

[Andrew laughs]

Danke.

What did Florence Pugh see in Midsommar?

Ooh, what did I-

Yeah. See at the end?

What are you looking at?

So I have a different version to Ari, the director.

The idea is that she's now gone through a psychotic break.

From the moment she chooses, I believe accidentally,

Christian, her boyfriend, to get burnt,

she keeps on waking up and going back in

to this like, psychotic break,

and when that moment at the end happens

where everything is going up in flames,

I tried to embody what I was like when I was five

on Bonfire Night. Mm. Mm.

And just how- Nice.

Exciting it was to see flames,

and I wanted to revert back to a very, very small

and simple life of how simple things made

and make children feel. Mm.

Because in that moment,

I presumed that she wasn't there anymore.

What does Florence Pugh take in The Wonder?

Oh, a form of heroin, like, or opiates.

Yeah. And it's supposed to.

Yeah, you have like a similar high,

and she just feels great and groovy.

These are cool questions.

These are interesting things- They are.

To get to the bottom of.

What knife- Ooh.

Does Florence Pugh use? Oh.

You gave me a lovely knife.

I did give you a nice knife.

Knife. Knife.

I use mainly Japanese knives,

because I just think that they are the prettiest to hold,

they are the daintiest to use, and they're bloody sharp,

so you have to be really careful.

I've got loads of scars on my fingers.

You've been cutting yourself up, huh?

I've been cutting myself.

Burnt myself recently.

I was wondering about that. Yeah.

Burnt myself on a pan, 'cause I was making pasta.

Blink twice if you need rescuing from-

No, that was to myself, so I'll blink four times.

Okay.

Okay, and then you have a psychotic break?

[Florence laughs]

Where is Florence Pugh's accent from?

I mean, I grew up in the country-

Oxford? Yeah, I grew up in Oxford

in the countryside.

The country bumpkin does, every now and then, come out

when I talk to my old friends.

It's a nice voice. It's a nice accent.

Thanks. I think we can all agree.

[laughs] I don't think any of us would disagree with that.

[both laugh]

They call this the stupid era, like the witching hour,

where someone starts to go a little bit mad.

That's me right now.

Do you know what you're doing?

Yep. Cool.

What is Andrew Garfield's best movie?

[Andrew laughs]

I can't answer that.

Well, you have to. It's a game.

We can't leave until you answer that question.

We cannot go to our own premier

until you answer this question.

Answer the question. [Andrew screams]

Okay, well, I mean, objectively,

or like, like how much money a movie made,

or like- Literally,

answer the question. What the reviews, like the.

What is Andrew Garfield's best ever, ever, ever,

ever, ever, ever movie, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever?

I'm gonna say, I really love We Live in Time.

That's- I think it's a great film,

and I'm really excited to give it to the world.

But that's not what people would've,

that's not what people would've Googled.

Well, I don't know.

It's impossible to answer.

Well, you have to. It's a subjective thing.

You have to. I don't know.

Have to. I don't know.

Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down.

Do it.

That is a obtuse reference

that doesn't quite make sense, but I'm-

♪ Try it ♪ I liked it.

Do you not think it's Network?

The Paddy Chayefsky, Sidney Lumet film, Network?

[both laugh] [crew laughing]

No. I think it would be.

No, no, do you not.

I think that might be.

Oh, Social Network, I think like.

Yeah, let's.

I love that film, and I think a lot of.

Yeah. I know you do.

But I really also,

like Tick, Tick Boom! is so. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

But Hacksaw Ridge and Spider-Man.

So you're amazing

is what you're saying. No, no, I just,

I love, I love.

I'm very lucky that I've loved the films I've made.

When will Andrew Garfield be Spider-Man again?

Oh, I know, right?

I don't know. Ah.

Ah.

I don't know.

I don't know if ever. It's possible never.

It's possible maybe at some point.

I know. You'll get over it. No, that was acid burn.

Oh, right. I'm joking.

What if Andrew Garfield was in Civil War?

What if Andrew Garfield was in Civil War?

That is such an, that's.

Yeah, what if, man?

What if, whoever has asked that? What if?

[Florence] Are Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire friends?

Yeah, I'd say so.

Yeah? Friendly, yeah, for sure.

I love Tobey, I think he's great,

and we have a nice friendship.

Ah, we're back. More?

Wow, my name is so many times

on that piece of card. Pugh.

[both mimic laser guns blasting]

I think that's the first

question, isn't it? How to pronounce

Florence Pugh's last name.

[Florence mimics laser gun blasting]

[Andrew mimics laser gun blasting]

Or like a pew,

like a church pew. Pew.

How do you really pronounce it, though?

Pugh.

Yeah, it's- Be honest finally.

It's Hugh, but with a P.

Be honest finally.

All right, it's Pudge.

[Florence laughs] You heard it here first.

We'll be right back. We're back.

How old was Florence Pugh in Little Women?

How old was I?

I think I was

23. 23?

22, 23? 22, 23?

23. 23

It was the same year as- The same year as-

Midsommar. Midsommar, yeah.

Florence Pugh.

[Both] We Live in Time. [Florence laughs]

There you go.

Answer us that. Answer it.

Answer us that. Fucking answer it, Florence.

Answer us that

once and for all. This is what people

need to know. Once and for all,

answer this question. Florence Pugh

in We Live in Time. We Live in Time.

What do you think about that?

Not even what do you think.

No, just what.

Florence Pugh We Live in Time?

Florence Pugh, We Live in Time?

Go ahead.

You know what, guys,

this has been on my mind for a really long time,

and I've been wanting to get this off my chest,

and I'm so glad that we're all here in this room.

Mm-hmm. The light is on,

the mics are on, because, I guess, for me,

I wish that I lived in soup.

You heard it here first.

This has been an incredible day of exclusives.

[Florence guffaws]

[laughs] I think it's about to get even better.

Yeah. Is Florence Pugh going

to be in another Marvel movie?

I mean, yes, right?

We all know that. Yes.

Yes. Yes.

That was an easy one.

Yep.

Oh no. Sorry [laughs]. Oh, shit.

[mimics trumpet fanfare] We're back.

Oh, you've only got three questions.

Yeah, because people aren't that interested

in my life. That's not true.

Or maybe everybody knows stuff about you.

I did this before, so I think we had to.

Anyway.

Andrew Garfield. Yes.

Why doesn't.

Oh, this already sounds mean.

[Andrew sighs]

Why doesn't Andrew Garfield smile ever?

Joking! Have social media.

Oh, god, how long have you got?

Go on.

I think I just, I'm of the generation,

I'm like a, what's it called?

I'm like geriatric millennial.

I grew up without internet

and social media for the most part,

and then I was part of the transition

when I was like mid-teens, like late teens,

and so I think I just, I'm scared of it,

and I think rightly so.

I think it's like, it's proving out now that there's.

But some people, like, can deal with it really well.

I think you deal with it incredibly well

and you hold onto yourself and you have boundaries with it.

[Florence] How is Andrew Garfield English? What?

How does Andrew Garfield English?

Yes.

How is he English?

How is Andrew Garfield English?

Well. How are you English?

Well, technically? What makes you English?

Technically, my mother was from Essex,

she was an Essex girl.

My dad's from LA but was raised in England.

They moved to LA, had me and my brother.

My mother was alone, pretty much, in Marina Del Rey

in the '80s, which was quite, you know, scary for her,

it was a bit more dangerous back then,

and she was like, I want to raise my kids

near their grandparents, so they moved.

She was like, I'm moving back with the kids.

Would you like to come with me? to my dad,

and my dad was like, Yeah, okay, I'll come.

[Andrew laughs] Aw.

So I was raised in England, so I have a UK passport.

Did you live in New York? I was conceived

in New York. You were conceived

in New York. Yeah, my,

Holiday Inn in downtown Manhattan.

Nice. Maybe on a sultry,

spring evening.
