London:
Stan Lee, creator of the famous comic book series Spider-Man, has heaped praise on actor Andrew Garfield, lauding him as the "perfect" replacement for Tobey Maguire in the next movie in the franchise.
The British actor has been chosen to take over from Maguire, who quit the franchise last year after starring inthree Spider-Man movies.
The new film will be a prequel to the previous installments, and Spider-Man mastermind Lee is happy with thedecision to hire 27-year-old Garfield to play Peter Parker and his superhero alter-ego, reported Contactmusic.
"Looks just perfect to me. How he manages to look so young, I wish he'd teach me the secret. If you go back toSpider-Man as a teenager and you get a different actor, it might be that the audience will accept that more readily," said Lee.
