Why Is Andrew Garfield Taking A Break From Acting?

“I’m going to rest for a little bit” said Garfield. “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 awhile. Because as you know, that is a washing machine, that awards season.” Garfield is referring to his second Oscar nomination recently, which he earned for Tick, Tick…Boom!
