After three years of dating, The Social Network's Andrew Garfield, 27, and Raising Hope's Shannon Woodward, 26, have broken up. Over the past year, Garfield has enjoyed an ample boost to his career, after portraying Eduardo Saverin opposite Jesse Eisenberg's Mark Zuckerberg in the Oscar-nominated Network, and following it up with an equally compelling performance in Never Let Me Go with Keira Knightley and Carey Mulligan. Now he's been cast in another career-changing role as the titular superhero in The Amazing Spider-Man, a darker retelling of the web-spinner's adventures, which just wrapped an arduous shoot.

The budding stars' hectic schedules have taken a toll on their relationship. "I think I'm just busier. That's the main thing," Garfield told Parade.com last year. "I haven't got as much time to mope about and complain that I'm bored," he said. At the time, he credited Woodward for sticking by him. "I think my girlfriend is proud of me and the fact that I've remained grounded."
