At the Screen Actors Guild Awards, Lin-Manuel Miranda revealed he was fully aware that his film’s star Andrew Garfield was in Spider-Man: No Way Home after a rather simple line of questioning from Miranda got Garfield all soft.

Andrew Garfield spent a solid two years in complete denial of his role in the Spider-Man threequel, with some truly magnificent acting that alone should see him nominated this award season.

Tick, Tick… Boom! co-star Robin de Jesús also spoke about Garfield’s attempts to shield the role from becoming public knowledge, joking that “He did not share. I feel some kind of way about that!”.

Tick, Tick… Boom! is up for just one award at tonight’s ceremony, with Garfield’s individual nomination for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role.
