19 Celebrity Encounters That Stuck With People

9.

“I met Tobey Maguire at a fan meet-and-greet back in 2013. I think it was a promotion for The Great Gatsby. Looking back, I genuinely felt bad for him because everyone kept asking him about Spider-Man, not The Great Gatsby. He called off the event before I got his autograph because some a-hole wanted him to discuss why Sony canned him for Andrew Garfield. As an adult looking back now, I see why actors get upset with crap like that. I think with certain actors who are most commonly associated with one role in particular, it sucks knowing that no matter what future roles you take, someone in the theater would point at you and say, ‘Hey, isn’t that Spider-Man?’ I have always sympathized with Tobey because of that reason.”
