Sound like the "
Amazing Spider-Man" panel was nothing but awesome at this year's
Comic Con.
Andrew Garfield (who has been cast as Spider-Man) made an emotional speech to the crowd about how great Spider-man is and how much the character meant to him - wearing a Spider-Man costume. This is the kind of person I want playing the character!
And Rys Ifans was arrested for misdemeanor battery after allegedly shoving a female security guard.
According to The Wrap, who spoke with police after the incident:
Ifans, who smelled of alcohol, became irate when a member of his entourage was unable to enter the hall for lack of proper credentialing, police said. He shoved the guard, and was allowed to participate in the panel, but the guard subsequently made a
citizen's arrest. "He was aggressive and belligerent," Lt. Andra Brown said of the Welsh actor. "He was... berating everyone from the security staff to the
United States of America."
Ifans was released after being cited and must now pay a fine for the incident (or contest it) although The Wrap's police contact added that Ifans said "the U.S. sucks and he doesn't want to come back."
