You all know our friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man, and for those who surprisingly don't, here's a summary. Before we get started here are some things you should know.

Firstly,hisnameisPeterParker,and he is the youngest member of the Avengers, a team of super heroes from the Marvel franchise. Peter Parker is a high school student who possessesspider-likeabilitiesdueto getting bitten by a radioactive spider.Hemadeanameforhimself in New York City and became very well known as a local neighbourhoodhero.

After defeating a villain called ‘the Vulture’ in Spider-Man: Homecoming, Peter discovers the true responsibilities of a hero. A few years later, when Thanos, a powerful warlord, attacked New York in search of a powerful stone, Peter helped the Avengers fend off the invaders. He was then knighted asamemberoftheAvengers.

Later, Thanos found all of the stones, and half of the universe, including Peter, were turned to dust withjustasnapofThanos’sfingers.

After being snapped away for 5 years, Peter comes back to help the Avengers fight Thanos again. Eventually, Tony - or Iron Mangains all 6 stones and snaps his fingers to kill Thanos. Tony, sadly, ends up dying after this. Peter is the first to run up to him and be by his sidewhilehedies.

After this, Peter continued to be your friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man,doinghisbesttoliveup to Tony. To try and get rid of some stress, Peter signed up to go on a trip to Europe with his best friends Ned and MJ and the rest of his class. While they were in Europe there had been several attacks by another villain, Mysterio, so Peter had to try and balance hiding his identity while leaving his class and fighting elemental monsters. During the trip, MJ figures out that Peter is Spider-Man! But soon enough Peter defeats Mysterio and MJ confesses herfeelingsforPeter.

Once Peter and his friends get back from Europe, Peter notices that the news report is talking about how Spider-Man murdered Mysterio, and that's not all… they then put up a videothatMysteriohadmade before being defeated by Peter“Spider-Man's name is Peter Parker!”

This brings us into Spider-Man:No Way Home. Peter was suddenly swarmed by reporters, federal agents and normal citizens, all of whom were on Mysterio's side! But this didn’t just affect Peter, it also affected Ned and MJ. Desperate to reverse the change that Mysterio has made in their lives, Peter decides to go to someone named Doctor Strange with the hope that he could make it so that it never happened. Strange had the amazing idea of making everyone forget who Spider-Man was, and Peter eagerly agreed to this idea. But the spell went so wrong that it opened several rifts in the universe, though Strange stitched these shut andcontainedthecorruptedspellin asmallmagicalbox.

Whilst Peter was trying to let him and his friends into school, his spider senses started to tingle. As he looked around he noticed that people were getting out of their cars and running for their lives. Then Peter saw a strange man with robotic tentacles. Little did he know that this was a villain from another multiverse. After capturing the villain, Peter was told by Strange to go and find other villains from the multiverse.

After Peter had captured all of the villains, he tried to save them by somehow curing them of their cruelty.ButPeter'ssensesstart going off again. Green Goblin attacked him and hurt his aunt May, intending to kill her. May tells Peter that “with great power comes great responsibility,” and falls to the ground. Peter looks at her side - he can see the bloody wound that the Goblin has made. May's breathing stops, with Peter by her side. The onlyfamilyPeterhadleftwasgone.

Peter was forced to flee as the agentsclosedin.Itwas MJandNed that introduced Peter to the other Peters from different timelines. The three Peters worked together to defeat the villains, but they soon foundthattherewasabombhidden in the magical box that contained the spell. The box exploded, releasing the spell. The fabric of the universe was tearing and all of the villains and heroes from other timelines started to come through. PeterthenapproachedStrange-he could change the spell so that everyone forgot who he was, what he meant to everyone, and what theyhadbeenthroughtogether.His relationships with MJ and Ned would all be erased, but the spell would be stopped. Peter stated that it is what has to be done, and ordered Strange to complete the spell.

Strange advised him to say his goodbyes while he could, and Peter did so, vowing to MJ and Ned that he would find them again and remind them of what they had all been through together. Spider-Man: No Way Home is my favourite movie,soIwouldhighlyrecommend watchingit!
