The star of "Spider-Man 2," Andrew Garfield, told Entertainment Weekly he wouldn't mind the web slinger having a boyfriend.

While kind of joking with producer Matt Tolmach, Garfield asked why Mary Jane — Spidey's love interest — isn't a guy.

‘What if MJ is a dude?’ Why can’t we discover that Peter is exploring his sexuality? It’s hardly even groundbreaking!…So why can’t he be gay? Why can’t he be into boys?”

Garfield went on saying he knows the perfect guy to play the role of the male MJ — up-and-coming rising star Michael B. Jordan.

Here's a photo of Michael B. Jordan:
