Theatrical Narrative & World

Set four years after the universe-altering climax of Spider-Man: No Way Home, Peter Parker lives in complete isolation in a modest New York studio, honoring Doctor Strange's spell that wiped his identity from the memory of everyone he ever loved.

Operating strictly as an anonymous street-level guardian without Stark technology or Avengers assistance, the immense psychological strain triggers an unexpected biological evolution of his arachnid abilities. When a phantom syndicate begins orchestrating a violent underworld takeover and Frank Castle arrives with lethal intent, Peter must redefine what it means to carry the burden of the mask.
