Andrew Garfield imitating Will Smith will leave you in splits

Andrew Garfield texting his friends during the 2022 Oscars was the second most popular thing from that night. The picture of him texting during the whole incident became so widely popular that The Amazing Spiderman actor’s photograph was used in millions of memes.

But what most people failed to see was Garfield’s reaction after the award ceremony. When the 39-year-old actor was leaving the ceremony and as he approached his friends he went to give them a high five. He successfully gave one of them a smashing high five but as he approached the other, he did something unexpected.

At first, it seemed like he is giving his friend a high five but as he raised his hand, he pulled it back halfway through. And although the clip in which he did that was very short, it was clear that he was imitating Will Smith.
