Spider-Man: Homecoming
WARNING : This Wiley Post containsSpider - Man : No Way Homespoilers
The MCU ’s potentialSpider - human race 4is much too soon to undo the event ofSpider - Man : No Way Home’sending . Picking up fromSpider - human race : Far From Home’scliffhanger , No Way Homesees Peter Parker pile with the side effect of his secret identity being unveil to the world . Initially , Doctor Strange agrees to help by casting a spell that will make the intact world forget Peter is Spider - Man , but Peter ’s continued insistence to tweak the charm has serious branch . The multiverse is opened , allowing legion villains from previousSpider - Manmovies to bust up mayhem . Peter and his protagonist pass the movie trying to scavenge up the mess .
At the end ofNo Way Home , Peter come to the harrowing realization the only way to stop the multiverse threat is to have Strange throw off a different patch - one that makes the world forget who Peter Parker is , include all of his fuck ace . No room Homecloses with a rather devastating scene where Peter decide against reintroducing himself to Ned and MJ , feeling they would be better off without him in their lives . Peter ’s option is one of the most poignant moments of his MCU arc , and it ’s one that should stick throughout subsequent installments .

Peter opt to give everyone a clean slate was a major part of his character ’s journey inNo Way Home . As Strange recite Peter , his desire to live two dissimilar life was the seed of many problem . Whereassecret individuality are n’t an issue for many of the MCU ’s superheroes , Peter was intent on keeping his alter ego separate to protect those closest to him . That ’s why he at last walk aside from Ned and MJ . Peter knows he still has the obligation of being Spider - Man , and history could risk repeating itself if his erstwhile friend got involved again .
No Way Homeconcludes on a pretty depressing note , with Peter opt a life of isolation rather than rebuild personal relationships that were so crucial to him . As producer Amy Pascal said , it ’s a massive ritual killing on the level moviegoers have n’t seen before , and it ’s whySpider - humans 4can’t undo it . If there ’s a plot point where MJ and Ned think back Peter and their history together , it would risk undercutting the emotional resonance ofNo room Home’sending and institute back some of the old complaint that the MCU does n’t really deal with serious interest . Peter intentionally cutting himself out of Ned and MJ ’s lives should have some meaning to it and expect over intoSpider - Man 4 . It could reach the door to a new portrayal of the character that differentiates itself from other iterations . It could be the inverseSam Raimi’sSpider - Man 2(praised for its treatment of the Peter / Spider - Man intragroup conflict ) . alternatively of Spider - Man no more , Peter ’s fundamentally choose to be Peter Parker no more .
Of of course , a key part of theSpider - Man : Homecomingseries is the endear chemistry between ace Tom Holland , Zendaya , and Jacob Batalon . IfNo Way Home’sending marijuana cigarette for good , the filmmakers would be purposely take out two - thirds of a beloved tercet , which itself carries a number of risks . Still , it ’s important for stories in these films to have significant consequences . It would be sad to see Peter move on without Ned and MJ , but that just makesNo Way Home’sending all the more impactful . Plus , there are several room the next moving picture can go . There are plenty ofSpider - Mansupporting type who have n’t been insert in the MCU yet ( Harry Osborn , Gwen Stacy ) , andHolland has been open about leavingSpider - Man . MaybeSpider - Man 4could see Peter take Miles Morales under his wing and set the stage for his proper exit .
