Andrew Garfield appeared to mimic the moment Will Smith slapped Chris Rock at the Oscars as he left The Academy Awards ceremony on Sunday.
In a video which was posted by unCrazed on YouTube, the Spider-Man: No Way Home star seemed to be seen walking out of the Dolby Theatre, Hollywood and began talking to someone about the shocking moment which occurred after Rock made a joke about Jada Pinkett-Smith's hair.
The actor then appeared to imitate the moment in which Smith got on stage and hit the comedian, with Garfield pretending to slap his own hand twice before laughing.

With no audio of Garfield’s encounter available in the video, it’s difficult to make out what he was saying. However, he did seem to mouth ‘what the f***’ twice as he spoke to a fellow Oscar-goer that evening.
Check out the video below:
It is not clear when the video was filmed or whether Garfield was referring to the talked-about Oscars moment, but the video was captioned: “Andrew Garfield mimics Will Smith slap after the Oscars”.

LADbible has contacted a representative of Andrew Garfield for a comment on the matter.
It comes as many comedians, including Amy Schumer, have expressed they have growing concerns that Smith's Oscars slap may have a trickle-down effect on comedy shows - even on a local level.
Schumer previously took to Instagram to voice her thoughts on the dramatic events, writing: “I think we can all agree that the best way to unpack what happened is to stream my series @lifeandbethhulu and see me on tour this fall. But for real. Still triggered and traumatised.”
