For Andrew Garfield, Spider-Man like any other role

London, June 26 (IANS) Actor Andrew Garfield says his role in "The Amazing Spider-Man" is like any other acting job and said he will never be entirely happy with his career achievements.

"To achieve what you set out to achieve and realise it's not what you want, it's disappointing. This role had been something I'd always, always wanted to do. Then you realise it's like any other acting job," contactmusic.com quoted Garfield as saying.

He added that he will probably never be entirely happy as far as his career is concerned.

"Some days it's great, others you feel lost. And I had always felt that if I got certain roles then I would be set for life, emotionally, professionally. It would be Utopia. But you never get to Utopia. The dream has become reality," he said.

The actor, who was bullied at primary school, said that playing 17-year-old high school geek Peter Parker was not actually much of a stretch.

"It's a horrible time of your life. But I still feel like I'm in that chapter. I am unsure, insecure, awkward in my body."

    New Delhi, May 23 -- Fixing is so rife in the domestic T20 league that players on opposing sides in one match were on different bookies' payrolls, a high-level police source said on Wednesday.
