Eddie Redmayne Makes Andrew Garfield Lose It on the SAG Awards Red Carpet

Andrew Garfield and Eddie Redmayne had a hard time pulling it together at the 2023 SAG Awards. The longtime friends reunited at the award show in Los Angeles on Feb. 26, laughing while posing for photos on the red carpet. At one point, Redmayne cracked Garfield up as he appeared to make some sort of cheeky remark while pointing his finger.

The actors have been friends since before they were famous. Redmayne actually lived with Jamie Dornan early on in his career, and Garfield was a frequent visitor, along with Robert Pattinson, Charlie Cox, and Tom Sturridge. “We would always go and hang out and play,” Redmayne said in a “Tonight Show” appearance last year. “And none of us got jobs. And then someone would get a job and sort of go stratospheric, and then the rest of us would sit back.”

Redmayne was also Garfield’s ping-pong partner at the time – although one of them took the sport more seriously. “I just remember once playing with Andrew, and he turned up with a ping-pong bat in a case. I was like, ‘He is not messing around,'” Redmayne said. “But he’s a very good ping-pong player.”

More recently, Garfield supported Redmayne by attending a screening of “The Good Nurse” in October 2022. Redmayne’s portrayal of Charlie Cullen in the Netflix true-crime series earned him a SAG Award nomination for outstanding performance by a male actor in a supporting role.
