Andrew
Garfield
made
it
big
in
2021
with
releases
like
Spider-Man:
No
Way
Home,
Tick
Tick
Boom,
and
The
Eyes
of
Tammy
Faye,
all
of
which
also
received
several
nominations
and
awards
during
the
awards
season
earlier
this
year.
However,
now
the
actor
has
expressed
his
wish
to
take
a
break
from
his
hectic
schedule.
While
talking
to
Variety,
Andrew
said,
"I'm
going
to
rest
for
a
little
bit.
I
need
to
recalibrate
and
reconsider
what
I
want
to
do
next
and
who
I
want
to
be
and
just
be
a
bit
of
a
person
for
a
while." He
added,
"I
need
to
just
be
a
bit
ordinary
for
a
while."
The
decision
comes
after
Andrew
recently
wrapped
up
the
filming
for
FX's
new
project
titled,
Under
the
Banner
of
Heaven.
The
show
is
an
adaptation
of
Jon
Krakauer's
2003
true-crime
book
of
the
same
name.
Andrew
said
he
believes
it's
time
for
him
to
just
lay
low
and
enjoy
doing
everyday
things,
and
it
may
have
been
something
he
realised
while
shooting
for
the
show
Under
The
Banner
of
Heaven.
He
confessed
that
the
material
wasn't
light
and
the
cast
had
to
take
care
of
themselves.
He
said,
"We
had
to
keep
on
taking
care
of
ourselves
so
that
we
can
take
care
of
the
story."
Andrew
added,
"I
think
it
was
actually
a
necessity
for
us
to
have
game
nights
and
go
into
nature
and
hike
and
you
know,
swim
and
dive
and
lakes
and
dance
and
eat
good
food
so
that
we
could
really
come
back
and
fully
give
ourselves
[to
the
work]."
Talking
about
Under
the
Banner
Of
Heaven,
Andrew
will
be
seen
essaying
the
role
of
a
Mormon
detective,
who
investigates
the
brutal
murder
of
a
mother
(Daisy
Edgar-Jones)
and
her
baby
daughter
by
fundamentalist
followers
of
the
Church
of
Jesus
Christ
of
Latter-day
Saints.
