Andrew Garfield says comments he made about gay men have been "twisted" by the media.
"That's of course not what I meant at all," he tells Newsbeat.
"That discussion was about this play and how deeply grateful I am that I get to work on something so profound.
"It's a love letter to the LGBTQ community. We were talking about, 'How do you prepare for something so important and so big?' and I was basically saying, 'I dive in as fully as I possibly can.'"
"My only longing is to serve and to keep the world spinning forward for the LGBTQ community in whatever way I'm meant to," he tells Newsbeat.
"It's important to a community that I feel so welcomed by.
"The intention [in my comments] was to speak to that, speak to my desire to play this part to the best of my ability and to fully immerse myself in a culture that I adore."
