Andrew Garfield Hopes Film Scares Billionaires

Actor Andrew Garfield has expressed his hope that his upcoming film, "The Uprising," will instill fear in billionaires, stating they "might be the most soul sick" and in need of healing. The historical drama, directed by Paul Greengrass, dramatizes the 1381 Peasants Revolt in England. Speaking at a recent screening panel ahead of the film's release, Garfield articulated his aspirations for the movie's impact. "I hope that we all feel like our own struggles are being reflected in the struggles of these characters from a distant time and place, and that it could be directive," he said. "And I hope that if any billionaires watch it, they're scared shitless." Garfield, who plays a character named Ploughman in the film, elaborated on his views regarding the wealthy. "They're the ones that might be the most soul sick," he added. "They're the ones that might need the healing the most in a way." "The Uprising" is set against the backdrop of 14th-century England, depicting a rebellion against King Richard II.
