Garfield is coming off his portrayal Facebook entrepreneur Eduardo Saverin in “The Social Network” and has been cast in the next installment of the Spider-Man series as Peter Parker.

Congrats once again to Andrew, he is nominated, perhaps predictably, as one of BAFTA’s Orange Rising Stars of tomorrow! The best part of this award is that the public votes on the eventual winner! So if you are a resident of the UK, go here to vote for Andrew!

Gemma Arterton, Andrew Garfield, Tom Hardy, Aaron Johnson and Emma Stone have all been announced this morning as the short list nominees for BAFTA’s Rising Star award. Chosen by a judging panel which includes a host of influential names from across the media industry including directors Mike Newell and Tom Ford, actor Peter Sarsgaard and film journalist Charles Gant, it is now up to the voting public to pick a winner.
The Rising Star award is the only people’s award at the ceremony, and previous winners have included Kristen Stewart, Noel Clarke and Shia LaBeouf.

On January 8th, Andrew and “The Social Network” co-stars Jesse Eisenberg, Rooney Mara, Justin Timberlake and Armie Hammer will be in Palm Springs to take home the Ensemble Performance Award from the Palm Springs International Film Festival. Congrats to the whole gang!!

“Every so often, a movie comes along with performances that set the standard for a generation of actors. The Social Network combines a theme that defines our time with performances that redefine acting for the screen. The Social Network is important not because it is about this current moment in history, but because the human motivations of the characters make it a parable for this or any age. The Palm Springs International Film Festival is proud to present the cast, including Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield, Justin Timberlake, Armie Hammer and Rooney Mara, with the 2011 Ensemble Performance Award.”

Andrew is nominated once again for Best Supporting Actor by the Chicago Film Critics Association. And “The Social Network” is up for all the usual awards (Best Actor, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Score, etc) once again. Congrats!!

As expected, Andrew is nominated in the category of Best Ensemble (along with Jesse Eisenberg, Justin Timberlake, Armie Hammer, Max Minghella and Josh Pence) at the Screen Actors Guild Awards, but in one of the biggest surprises of the awards season, he was left out of the Supporting Actor category. Nonetheless, congrats to him on the Ensemble nomination and of course congrats to Jesse (Best Actor nominee) and the other TSN boys as well!
