Andrew Garfield gets to work on set of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Tick, Tick… Boom!

He’s playing the lead in Lin-Manuel Miranda’s directorial debut Tick, Tick… Boom! 

And Andrew Garfield was seen getting to work on set of the drama as he filmed scenes in East Harlem, in New York City, on Sunday.

The actor, 37, wrapped up warm in a black biker jacket and a dark green scarf as he transformed into Rent composer and playwright Jonathan Larson.

Andrew completed his transformation by wearing a light green fleece shirt and a dark blue shirt over a pair of black trousers.

The Hacksaw Ridge star completed his look by wearing a pair of black Converse trainers, while his brunet locks were brushed into a tousled style.

Andrew adopted a stoic expression as he strolled through the neon-lit town in character for the scene, and he also walked outside an adult store during a busy night shoot.

Later on, Andrew was seen cycling an old-school bike through the town as they filmed crowd shot scenes along the boulevard. 

Garfield plays Rent composer and playwright Jonathan Larson in an adaptation of the latter’s own one-man stage play.

The musical follows Larson as he struggles with an existential and professional crisis on the eve of his 30th birthday, according to Backstage.com.

Originally staged by Larson in 1990, it was adapted after his death into a three-actor stage show that premiered Off-Broadway in 2001. 

It has been further reimagined for the screen by Steven Levenson who wrote the book for the Broadway hit Dear Evan Hansen.

Larson died suddenly at age 35 on the morning of the first preview performance of Rent Off Broadway on January 25, 1996.

In addition to Garfield, the cast of the Netflix movie includes Bradley Whitford, Alexandra Shipp, Judith Light and Vanessa Hudgens.

Originally in production at the start of the year, the project was put on hold when the COVID-29 pandemic hit in March, and filming resumed in mid-October.
