Andrew Garfield's Next TV Role Is A Doozy

According to Deadline, Andrew Garfield is set to star in an upcoming miniseries titled "Hot Air," which will see the actor taking on the role of Richard Branson, the head of Virgin Group. Adapted from Martyn Gregory's book "Dirty Tricks," with a script from "Paddington 2" scribe Jon Croker, the series will chronicle Branson establishing Virgin Airways, which took over the sky and, in turn, the competition's airspace in an unexpected fashion.

As outlined by Deadline, the series is expected to cover a period of corporate competition and attempted sabotage between the newly established Virgin Airways and legacy airline British Airways, which saw the latter planting spies in Branson's organization and launching public smear campaigns. So far, so "Social Network," right? As if that didn't all already sound exciting enough, "Deadpool 2" director David Leitch will be helming the series. 

The only question is where we're going to see it. Currently, various platforms have their eye on the story, so it all depends on who coughs up the most cash. It's just business, after all.
