Irrfan Khan to play the Green Goblin in next Spider-Man movie

Actor Irrfan Khan is undoubtedly one of the few popular Bollywood faces in Hollywood. He will now be seen as the new green goblin in the latest Spider-Man series, The Amazing Spider-Man. And the actor is all praises for the new Spider-Man, actor Andrew Garfield of the The Social Network fame.

“Andrew is an amazing person. He is restless and creatively challenged, always... like any good actor should be. I was quite impressed by the way he has grown from strength to strength in art. He has done a spectacular job as Spider-Man.” Irrfan is one of the few stars to have made it big in the West, right from his first film, Salaam Bombay, though he had a very small part to play. The film even went on to be nominated for the Oscars.

From then to now, Irrfan has come a long way. Talking about the way films are promoted in the industry today, he says, “Promotions at times help and at times they do not. I feel it is just a tool to aid films but there is no guarantee that aggressive promotions will work. Ultimately, it’s the film that works itsmagic,” adds the actor. At the end of the day, it’s the film and performances that make an impact on the audience, he says.

“Those who have money to promote their films do it in a big way. But these days you cannot fool the audience with gimmicks. If they feel that the promos are good and the film has potential, they will definitely go to watch the film irrespective of the promotional activities.”
