Publish date: 2024-04-25

Social media users and fans of the British actor are curious to know if Andrew Garfield and Jim Garfield are related.

Andrew Garfield is American-British actor who rose to fame after his role in the Spider-Man in the “The Amazing Spider-Man” series.

Andrew begun his acting career in 2004, and established himself as one of the most accomplished actors in Hollywood.

Likewise, Jim Davis is a renowned American cartoonist, screenwriter, and producer. The 77-year-old is best known as the creator of the comic strips “Garfield” and “U.S. Acres.”

“Garfield” is one of the world’s most widely syndicated comic strips. Mr. Davis’ other famous works include Tumbleweeds, Mr. Potator Head, and Gnorm Gnat.

Jim Davis and Andrew Garfield are not related.

A Twitter user claimed that Andrew Garfield’s grandfather is the creator of the Garfield comic, indicating Jim Davis. The person claimed that the world-famous comic strip is based on Andrew’s childhood cat, Lasagna. But it is not true.

Andrew was born on 20 August 1983. And the Garfield comic strip was created in 1978, which is five years before Andrew was born. Isn’t is odd? The comic strip would have been written even before the actor was born.

In addition, Andrew Garfield’s paternal grandfather’s name is Samuel Garfinkel, who was born in London, UK. Samuel later changed his last name to Garfield. His parents were Polish Jewish immigrants.
