Andrew Garfield's new war film, The Uprising, has landed a low Rotten Tomatoes score, and the result has some of the actor's fans feeling uneasy, according to yahoo.com. The film was released in September 2026.
The reception has not been kind elsewhere either. The Guardian described The Uprising as a muddled historical epic in its review, while Page Six reported that Garfield faced backlash after telling billionaires to be "scared" of his new movie.
The film is set against the 1381 Peasants' Revolt, a piece of English history that Smithsonian Magazine examined in a piece on the real events behind the story. Garfield has also spoken publicly about the movie's connection to the Robin Hood legend, Just Jared reported.
The mixed critical response and the online reaction to Garfield's remarks have combined to put the film's opening under scrutiny. Fans who follow the actor's work appear to be watching how the score and the reviews develop from here.
What to watch next: whether the Rotten Tomatoes score shifts as more reviews arrive, and how The Uprising performs with audiences.
