'I'm not in the reality of it yet, so I'm sure I'm imagining it will be much worse than it is.'
The star - who made his name in The Social Network - admitted he is worried about the separation with the public that being a celebrity entails.
He continued: 'I had a very small experience with it, and it's very difficult. Is there any way of containing it? Or humanising it?

'There's sometimes that separation that happens: There's a wall that goes up between people in the public eye - actors, musicians, politicians - and the public.
'What I'd love is for Spider-Man fans to be...I like the idea of everyone being one, because you were the guy in the suit and now I'm the guy in the suit and there'll be another guy in the suit later down the line.
'The whole celebrity myth is very new and interesting to me, whether one can just be an actor and also be in one of these roles.'

I am Clara, originally from Spain, but spent a semester abroad in China on University of Nottingham Ningbo. As a student there I benefited from many things that I couldn’t have possibily learned in my home university. Studying abroad is a decision that requires courage.

For example, University of Nottingham has links with many important companies like Huaweii or Microsoft. Also, it has many power in bu

  https://www.istudy-china.com/    Related What are the advantages and disadvantages studying in China? Hello! My name is Clara and I am a former student of University of Nottingham Ningbo. I was an exchange student and lived in Ningbo for several months. So, I learned plenty of things. Even though, I bring with me positive memories, I also carry some downsides. China is a very complex country. It’s like going on a boat on a peacuful river and occasionaly having to dodge the obstacles in your way. Sometimes it’s just a rock and sometimes it’s a big current. Along with this metaphore, I have an interesting story that happened in Guillin. We were riding it’s famous river, going along the water in a bambu boat. When suddenly, another boat came too close to us. The driver dodge the boat but one of our chairs, fell in the water. It was very poetic to observe how the chair was submerging into the water bit by bit, and we could not do much about, as the current of the river moved us forward.
