->''"When you can do the things I can do, but you don't, and then the bad things happen... they happen because of you."''

After getting bitten by a scientifically-altered spider, OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent Peter Parker gained the ability to crawl on walls and sense nearby threats, along with enhanced strength and agility. Peter initially plans to use these powers for personal gain. But when his uncle, Ben Parker, is shot and killed by a criminal that Peter realizes that he could have stopped, the teenager learns that WithGreatPowerComesGreatResponsibility and vows to use his abilities to protect others as the superhero ComicBook/SpiderMan... [[InMediasRes All of which has happened offscreen by the time we actually meet him.]]

A few months after his SuperheroOrigin, Spider-Man gets drafted into a conflict between the Avengers by Iron Man, gaining a new suit in the process. While seeking to prove that he's good enough to join the Avengers, Peter is able to take on a smaller threat on his own, proving his worth. However, Peter ultimately turns down the offer to become an Avenger, realizing that he can do more good stopping crime in New York City, which is an area that the Avengers can't usually cover... But when an alien invasion threatens New York once again, Spider-Man is officially inducted into their ranks by Iron Man.
----
[[foldercontrol]]
[[folder:#-B]]
* EleventhHourRanger: Tony Stark hastily recruits him as an Avenger at the start of ''Infinity War'', when Peter stows away onto the ship and joins the ride to Titan.
* ActionHero: While [[Film/SpiderManTrilogy previous]] [[Film/TheAmazingSpiderManSeries outings]] of the character had a strong focus on the {{angst}} that came with being a superhero, this iteration of Spider-Man is more visibly enthusiastic to be a hero, even treating his fight with the Avengers as something of an exciting adventure. He's able to disarm Captain America with a surprise attack, and he casually blocks a punch from Winter Soldier's metal arm without breaking a sweat, pulling it downward effortlessly while casually noting that he thinks it's cool. He's also the one who came up with the plan to defeat Giant-Man, who at that point had been giving the rest of the Pro-Registration side trouble. Moreover, he keeps the Falcon and the Winter Soldier in check ''at the same time'' for a good portion of the battle, and again comes up with the plan to take out Ebony Maw in ''Infinity War'' which had flummoxed Iron Man until Peter suggested it.
* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: Peter usually gets put through the wringer enough in most of his other appearances, but this gets hammered hard in ''Infinity War'', ''Endgame'', ''Far From Home'' and ''No Way Home''. Not only does he get turned to dust and spends the next five years dead, the moment he comes back, his mentor sacrifices his life to ensure the being responsible is bested for good. Peter then spends the next eight months dealing with the pressures of stepping up to the plate in Tony's place, but it gets to him and [[spoiler:Mysterio is able to take advantage and swipe Tony's last gift to him.]] He's able to accept he needs to be the hero that Iron Man was, but [[spoiler:Beck posthumously outs him and frames him for murder]]. [[Series/Daredevil2015 Matt Murdock]] clears him on the legal front, but [[ConvictedByPublicOpinion his social life gets so screwed up thanks to the public hounding him]] that he turns to Dr. Strange to wipe his identity from the public conscious. But both men [[PoorCommunicationKills don't specify the details that well]], and bring villains from the previous ''Spider-Man'' film series into Peter's backyard, along with [[spoiler:both his cinematic predecessors and Venom, the latter of whom fortunately decides to get wasted at a bar instead of showing up to tear him in half]]. He tries to help said villains, but Green Goblin [[spoiler:kills his Aunt May]], leading to a chain of events where [[spoiler:he has to have Strange wipe the knowledge of Peter Parker from the MCU, leaving him alone, broke, and with no support.]] Arguably, this is the worst punishment any Spidey has been through.
* AdaptationalIntelligence: {{Downplayed|Trope}}, as in the comics Peter is incredibly intelligent and when given the resources, is more than capable of creating technology that lets him keep up with many [[ScienceHero Science Heroes]]. However in ''No Way Home'', Peter is able to successfully create cures for three of the multiversal villains within a few hours of meeting them for the first time, with only the one for Green Goblin apparently failing (though it was possible the Goblin sabotaged the cure or it was not finished) while the cure for the Lizard was destroyed, leaving it unclear if it would have worked. Even when acknowledging that StatusQuoIsGod, his comic self has rarely been shown to invent cures for his villains outside of the Lizard.
* AdaptationalLateAppearance: This Peter lived in a world where the Avengers existed for years before he became Spider-Man and idolized Iron Man. His comic book counterpart actually predates Tony becoming Iron Man and by extension, the founding of the Avengers themselves.
* AdaptationPersonalityChange: He's a lot more hyperactive and overtly awkward than how his comic book counterpart started out. He's also more sociable, having rapport with various people around his neighborhood, while his comic version often isolated himself from others at the beginning and only started developing a social circle after CharacterDevelopment kicked in. The most likely reason is that unlike his comic book counterpart, he is not an outcast, which comes with him being born in an age where nerds aren’t looked down on as much. As such, Peter has at least a handful of friends (though at first Ned is the only one he can be considered close with) and was part of several clubs.
* AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul:
** With Tony Stark/Iron Man. Here, Peter idolizes and is always seeking to gain his approval with Stark acting as a stern father figure and [[TheMentor mentor]] to him. In the comics, they don't have such a relationship (except for the build-up to and during the Civil War), especially since Spidey actually predates Iron Man (and the Avengers) as a superhero there. If anything, he's historically been closer a friend to Captain America. The Ultimate versions had a comparable relationship, though.
** With the Avengers themselves. He became a superhero with dreams of becoming an Avenger, and is considered a close ally of them right until becoming a member. In the comics, Peter didn't join the Avengers until the '90s, and even then, only as a reserve member (where he took part in stories that featured ''everyone''). Historically, Spidey has been ''much'' closer to the ComicBook/FantasticFour as an HonoraryTrueCompanion, and has actually served on the FF before (notably during the ''[[ComicBook/{{FF}} Future Foundation]]'' era) with Reed being his father figure and Johnny being HeterosexualLifePartners with him, and everyone regarding him as their closest family outside each other. Rights issues at the time with Fox (before the merger) meant that the Fantastic Four had to be swapped for the Avengers.
** He had a much more sour relationship with Ned Leeds in the comics, even without the [[BrainwashedAndCrazy Brainwashed and Crazy]]. Here, Peter is best friends with the guy.
* AffectionateNickname: In ''Film/AvengersEndgame'', Captain America calls him “Queens” which is a CallBack to when Cap realized they were both New Yorkers during the big fight scene in ''Civil War''.
* AgeLift: His comic self got his powers when he was 15, but based on the MCU canon, he would have gotten his powers when he was 14 in this version.
* AlliterativeName: '''P'''eter '''P'''arker.
* AllLovingHero: In contrast to the world-saving Avengers, no good deed is too small for Spider-Man. From stopping bicycle theft, to giving an elderly woman directions, [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness to stopping the shooting of a mouthy thug by a weapons dealer]] by deliberately revealing his spying location, shouting, "You're gonna shoot somebody, shoot at me!". If the credits are anything to go by, he also regularly rescues cats from trees. He also spends the majority of ''No Way Home'' on a SaveTheVillain mission because he's unwilling to allow a group of dangerous supervillains from other universes to be killed on their return.
* AllWebbedUp: In true Spider-Man fashion, he can completely web his opponents up to disable them. He does this to Falcon in their scuffle in ''Civil War'' (though Sam still manages to take him out through some quick-thinking and surprise trickery). He also completely webs Mantis up in ''Infinity War' when she tries to use her powers to put him to sleep.
* AlternateSelf: So far there are four variants of Peter Parker with a possible fifth variant that has yet to be seen. See [[Characters/MCUSpiderManVariants Spider-Man Variants]] for more information.
* AMFMCharacterization: He's a fan of the indie rock band Music/AltJ and builds a suit to Music/{{ACDC}}'s "Back in Black" (picked by Happy) signifying how he's taking on Tony Stark's mantle. Of course, Peter incorrectly identifies it as belonging to Music/LedZeppelin.
* AnguishedDeclarationOfLove: [[spoiler:He attempts one, after MJ, who's memory of him is just about to be erased, gives her own ADL. However before Peter can tell her he loves her too, MJ stops him, and instead tells him to let her know when he finds her in the new world after everyone forgets Peter Parker. He promises her he will, with tears in his eyes.]]
* AnimalisticAbilities: He has speed, strength, and agility proportionate to those a spider's and can stick to surfaces like a spider can.
* AnimalThemedSuperbeing: He does whatever a spider can, in case you couldn't tell from his name and webbing.
* ApologeticAttacker: After webbing Winter Soldier and Falcon, he apologizes and says that he only did it because "I have one job and I've got to impress Mr. Stark."
* ArchEnemy: Peter has two in Mysterio and the Green Goblin. The former [[spoiler:revealed his identity and betrayed his trust, while the latter killed May causing Peter to almost kill him]].
* AscendedFanboy:
** Idolized superheroes like Captain America and Iron Man while growing up, and got to become one mid-puberty. [[ConflictingLoyalty Shame about the Avengers being pitted against one another.]] The Anti-Accord side doesn't seem to hold it against him, or at least not Captain America himself. During their fight, Cap learns that Spidey is a fellow New York native and tells him he has heart.
--->'''Spider-Man:''' Hey, Captain. Big fan. I'm Spider-Man.
** The plot of ''Homecoming'' revolves around him wanting to get a full promotion into becoming an Avenger, which he ultimately decides against. And then he '''does''' become an Avenger in ''Infinity War''.
* TheAtoner: It's heavily implied that Uncle Ben died because of Peter's negligence, spurring him to fight crime as Spider-Man.
* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: He got kicked around a lot due to letting himself be distracted by how cool a development or his opponent's powers/gadgets were. Examples include Falcon slamming into him after he pulled a PunchCatch on Bucky's metal-arm, and swinging straight into Giant-Man's waving hand right after he helped Iron Man and War Machine to take him down ''Franchise/StarWars''-style.
* AudienceSurrogate: In addition to being a [[AscendedFanBoy superhero fanboy]] he [[MetaGuy hangs several]] {{lampshade|Hanging}}s about common comic book trappings during the fight in ''Civil War'', such as that Cap's shield-throwing does not obey the laws of physics.
* TheBabyOfTheBunch: He's only a teenager while the rest of the Avengers are anywhere from their 20's to their 40's (technically Vision is the youngest, having only been created in 2015, but he's much more mature). This is the reason Tony is so adamant about him staying out of trouble. In ''No Way Home'' [[spoiler:he's the youngest Spider-Man when compared to his two counterparts, having been born in 2001 and then being dead for five years meaning he's just starting to apply for college while the Raimi-Verse Peter and the Webb-Verse Peter became Spider-Man in 2002 and 2013 and were born in TheEighties and TheNineties respectively]].
* BackFromTheDead: In ''Avengers: Endgame'', he is one of many characters who are brought back from being dusted by Hulk reversing Thanos's deadly fingersnap from ''Avengers: Infinity War''.
* BadassAdorable: Spider-Man is an adorable little guy who can go toe-to-toe with just about any of the other Avengers. In fact, the main reason he tends to lose fights is that he's too unfocused and easy to catch off-guard.
* BadassBookworm: Overlapping with GeniusBruiser. In his civilian identity, Peter is a dorky nerd, but as Spider-Man, he's one of the strongest heroes on the planet.
* BadLiar: He's mostly managed to keep his secret identity intact, but once other characters see an obvious indicator that he's Spider-Man, he deteriorates into a panicked mumbling. Case in point, his attempts to shove his superhero costume into his closet after Tony figures out its hiding place, or trying to weasel his way out of Ned watching him crawl across the ceiling.
* BaseBreakingCharacter: Becomes this InUniverse after [[spoiler:Beck outs his identity to the world and Matt gets the charges against him dropped. On the one half, people revere him as a hero. On the other, he's demonized as a murderer.]]
* BashSiblings: With the Avengers [[spoiler:and the Spider-Men from the Raimi-Verse and the Webb-Verse]].
* BatSignal: The Spider-Signal makes its big screen debut in the post-credits scene of ''Captain America: Civil War''.
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Peter Parker's initial story arc is about finding his place in the universe and wanting to be recognized as a hero worthy of being an Avenger. So he becomes one... which gets him killed and subsequently resurrected. After that debacle, the Avengers disband, leaving him on his own and placing ''huge'' expectations upon his shoulders when he would now rather spend time as a normal kid. This ultimately culminates in him dealing with an Avengers-level threat entirely on his own... [[spoiler:and he's rewarded by being framed for murder and having his secret identity exposed]].
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: The reason Tony Stark earns Peter's loyalty. The former marched to a kid living with his single parent/guardian and provided him validation and approval for his superhero life that he had previously been keeping to himself, and then gave him a bunch of upgrades free of charge. Compared to virtually everyone else, who Tony irritates for his brash and standoffish behavior, his friendship with Peter is a major exception.
* BeingGoodSucks: He's Spider-Man, this is a given. Whenever he does the right thing, it's always at a huge personal cost.
* BetaOutfit: His first costume was simply brightly colored sweats with a spider drawn on the front with a ski-mask and some welding goggles. Tony calls him "Underoos" for this.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Peter is a nice kid who has an earnest desire to be a hero. But make no mistake -- he's still a superhero with immense strength, agility, and reflexes and is ''not'' someone to be trifled with. [[spoiler:The first time we really see this in play is when he fights the Green Goblin after the latter killed Aunt May and threatened MJ. It's the first time we truly see Peter pissed off and at the end of his rope. Before, the Goblin trounced Peter, but now, it's Peter who curbstomps him with full intent to kill the villain. And he would have gone through with it if Raimi-Peter hadn't stepped in.]]
* BewareTheSillyOnes: He may be young and can't stop running his mouth, but his first appearance has him fighting Avengers twice his age and giving them a run for their money.
* BigApplesauce: From Queens, with a more pronounced New York accent than most other versions of the character. Cap is pleased to know this, since he's a fellow New York native (born and raised in Brooklyn).
* BigDamnHeroes: In ''Endgame'', he saves Tony Stark from Cull Obsidian by pulling him back with his webs for Ant-Man to step on and kill.
* BlackAndWhiteMorality: Not surprisingly for someone his age, he has a very black and white view on crime and life. He takes Iron Man at his word that Captain America and his team are in the wrong during the airport battle and leaves Aaron Davis webbed up to his car just because he's a convicted criminal. Toomes recognizes this and tries explaining to Peter that [[VillainHasAPoint the real world is a lot more gray and he can't think that way]], though he's clearly self-motivated and stalling for time.
* BlessedWithSuck:
** His accelerated perception is a huge asset when fighting villains. When he needs to wait until morning for a pair of concrete doors to open? Not so much. PlayedForLaughs when, during a waiting montage, he's irritated to learn that less than an hour has passed.
** His Spider-Sense lets him know when there's a significant threat coming. Unfortunately, when that significant threat is ''instant eradication at the Infinity Gauntlet-clad hand of Thanos'', that just means that he has time to [[MortalityPhobia realize he's dying]].
* BoobsAndButtPose: The theatrical poster for ''Far From Home'' shows him in this pose. Quite unusual to see a teenager in this pose though.
* BornUnlucky: As expected from any Spider-Man. In just his first solo movie, he is bullied by Flash, gets no respect from Happy and Tony, causes the elevator and barge accidents (the latter, he tries to fix it and yet the thing collapses again because he misses one spot) and discovers the same guy he's fighting is the father of his date.
* BrainyBrunette: He has brown hair and despite his recklessness, Peter has proven to be quite intelligent.
* BrassBalls: When he was a kid, one of Vanko's MechaMooks approaches him while wearing an Iron Man mask. Instead of running away, he stares down at the machine and raises his hand before Tony comes in and blasts the robot to smithereens. He even commends Peter on his bravery.
-->'''Tony:''' Nice work, kid.
* BreakTheCutie: Comparing him in his happy, enthusiastic first appearance in ''Captain America: Civil War'' to the shots of him red-eyed and shying away from even being Spider-Man throughout ''Far From Home'' really drives home how much a superhero life has finally taken a mental toll on Peter. Then ''No Way Home'' comes along and makes his life even worse.
* BrokenPedestal: [[spoiler:When he meets Mysterio, who he looked up to, after learning the truth about the Elementals, he is ''pissed''. So pissed, in fact, that he completely stops with the usual banter that he's known for and talks to him only with a tone of disgust and disappointment.]]
* BroodingBoyGentleGirl: GenderInverted with him as the Gentle Boy to Michelle's Brooding Girl.
* BuffySpeak: When making his ''Star Wars'' analogy in ''Civil War'', he doesn't know the actual name for the AT-AT vehicles, so he calls them "the walking thingies".
* BunnyEarsLawyer: It's implied that the Academic Decathlon team is willing to put up with his flaky nature because he's so smart (and he's not a jerk like Flash).
* BuildingSwing: He does this with his webs -- it's the best way for a spider to travel. His solo movie, however, shows that it's basically useless anywhere but the middle of a big city. At various points he resorts to riding on trucks, hoofing it through the suburbs, and stealing Flash's car.
* ButtMonkey: To say that bad things happen to him a lot would be an understatement.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:C-G]]
* CallingYourAttacks:
** ''Spider-Man: Homecoming'' has him announce his web combinations this way, such as "Ricochet Web" and "Web Grenade". Justified in that the suit is partly voice-activated.
** In ''Infinity War'', this is PlayedForLaughs when he's fighting Thanos with help with portals generated by Doctor Strange:
--->'''Spider-Man:''' Magic! ''[teleports]'' More magic! ''[teleports again]'' Magic with a kick! ''[teleports once more]'' Magic with a punch!
* TheCameo: Footage of Peter from ''No Way Home'' appears in ''Film/VenomLetThereBeCarnage'' [[spoiler:during TheStinger, where Eddie and Venom are inexplicably transported to the MCU and tune into ''The Daily Bugle'' reporting on Mysterio's FrameUp of him]].
* CannotKeepASecret: The fact that he's ''terrible'' at maintaining his secret identity is lampshaded more than once. Despite his attempts to hide his double life his identity is discovered separately by Tony, Aunt May and Ned. In ''Far From Home'' MJ guesses it ''on her own'' and even tells Peter it was pretty obvious. [[spoiler:It comes back to bite him ''hard'' in the stinger for ''Far From Home'', where Mysterio publicly outs him as Spider-Man.]]
* CannotSpitItOut: Throughout ''Homecoming'', he constantly stumbles on his words when he tries to talk to Liz, and is staring at his feet when he finally tells her about his crush on her. However, she'd already figured it out, and offers to be his date to the school dance. In ''Far From Home'', he's having a similar problem with MJ, where he's [[ComplexityAddiction plotted out a six-step plan]] to communicate his feelings for her rather than state them outright from the start.
* CanonCharacterAllAlong: The kid wearing an Iron Man mask in ''Iron Man 2'' (in real life, the son of director Creator/JonFavreau) was {{retcon}}ned to be him by WordOfGod, or at least according to Holland and ''Homecoming'' director Jon Watts.
* TheCape: Peter is consistently shown to be one of the most idealistic and compassionate superheroes. He’s also one of the few Avengers who isn't a soldier and hasn’t taken a life for any reason until the final battle in ''Endgame'', where he is [[GodzillaThreshold forced to kill]] in order to survive and keep the Infinity Gauntlet out of Thanos's reach.
* CasualDangerDialogue: He spends the entire airport battle chattering away as if it were a friendly get together. For instance, after blocking a punch from Winter Soldier, and turning his cybernetic arm to examine it more closely, he takes the time to compliment him on it saying, "You have a [[ArtificialLimbs metal arm]]?! That's awesome, dude!" Falcon lampshades this by telling him fights usually aren't really talkative. Justified, his MotorMouth is symptomatic of him being inexperienced and nervous.
** He did this again in ''No Way Home'' in the middle of a fight with the supervillains to explain who the Avengers are to [[spoiler: the other Peters, until Raimi-Verse Peter interrupts him shouting "how is this helping?"]].
* CatchPhrase: He often says "That's awesome!".
* CharacterDevelopment: When he starts off as a hero, he mostly sticks to the shadows and does little things to help out his neighborhood. His introduction to Tony Stark and the Avengers (plus a new suit) in ''Civil War'' gave him a huge confidence boost and he begins to work more openly and interact with his fellow New Yorkers. Most of his time in ''Homecoming'' is spent trying to prove himself to Stark and become an official member of the Avengers to save the world. By the end of the film, Peter is given the chance to join but turns it down because he decides he'd rather stay close to the ground and help out the little guy. Come ''Far From Home'', he's content to try and settle down for a bit after he's been dead for five years and Tony sacrificed himself to stop Thanos, especially because he's being pressured to become the next Iron Man. Thanks to [[spoiler:Mysterio's]] manipulations, he's able to step up to the plate and become the hero he was meant to be...only for [[spoiler:Beck to screw him over again and out him to the public while simultaneously framing him for murder.]] After a serious of events drop the Sam Rami and Marc Webb ''Spider-Man'' villains into the MCU and leads to the original Green Goblin [[spoiler:killing Aunt May]], he really learns the hard way that old adage "With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility" and [[spoiler:selflessly gives up everything to wipe out all knowledge of Peter Parker from his home universe to ensure a gaggle of foes who know his name throughout the multiverse won't overcrowd and destroy Earth.]]
* CheapCostume
** In addition to his original costume, ''Far From Home'' features a gag where he's' forced to hide his face with an Italian jester's mask after leaving his suit in the hotel room.
** [[spoiler:After having Doctor Strange wipe all knowledge of Peter Parker from the MCU to send all of the multiversal villains back to their home universes, Peter is forced to make his own suit from scratch again since he now has no support and none of the resources that Tony Stark left him. While it is the most comics-accurate spider-suit on screen to date, it is a simple blue-and-red spandex jumpsuit without any of the additional bells and whistles of his other suits like the Iron Spider or his previous cloth suits with an integrated computer system in them. This one doesn't even seem to have the iris-lenses, something he was able to kluge together out of welder's goggles for his BetaOutfit.]]
* ChickMagnet: As Spider-Man, a number of his female classmates like him. Michelle is strongly implied to be interested in Peter in ''Homecoming'', and [[spoiler:by the end of ''Far From Home'', they've had a RelationshipUpgrade]]. And despite his apparent flaking nature, Liz does reveal to him that she ''is'' attracted to him. There's also the small group of German girls who give him flirtatious looks during his home video at the beginning of ''Homecoming'' (which he's clearly pretty thrilled by).
* ChildSoldier: Tony Stark recruits Peter to fight along with the Pro-Registration side, and while no one in Team Cap would harm him or anyone else on Team Stark, they are engaging with an unstable person like the Winter Soldier, making Tony's decision to bring him along [[GrayingMorality rather questionable]], especially since Tony knew that they would pull their punches. Iron Man recruited him in the hope that having one more super-powered figure would give him the advantage. As far as Tony knew, most of Team Cap was non-powered to moderately powered figures with the exception of Scarlet Witch while he had himself, Black Widow, War Machine, and Vision. Getting Spider-Man and Black Panther on his side at the same time gave him the clear superior advantage. He didn't count on Captain America's side recruiting Ant-Man, whose abilities nobody was prepared for. After his initial plan for a CurbStompBattle goes awry, Tony orders Spider-Man out and sends him back home. Of course, at that point, there wasn't really a team for Peter to be on anyway.
-->'''Rhodes:''' Jesus, Tony, how old is this guy?\\
'''Tony:''' I don't know, I didn't carbon date him! He's on the young side!
* ChronicHeroSyndrome: Peter just cannot stand by and let something bad happen on his watch. He regularly looks at the clock in his classes, eagerly waiting to get out and do heroics as soon as the school day ends. It's true that he does a lot of things just to impress Tony Stark, but when given a choice between his personal life and being Spider-Man, he will always choose the latter. This gets deconstructed a little bit, however, when Peter's misguided eagerness to do good makes him reckless and under-prepared, leading to him often getting his butt handed to him by the various bad guys he comes across or putting civilian lives in danger.
** This bites him in the ass hard in ''No Way Home''. [[spoiler:Due to immense guilt for MJ and Ned not getting into MIT, on top of the harassment May and Happy suffer he immediately goes towards Dr. Strange for a memory wipe spell without consulting anyone. When the spell is butchered and instead ends up bringing in villains from across the multiverse, rather than sending the villains home immediately which would make everyone's lives much easier, the absolute second he finds out that they are all but guaranteed to die upon their return galvanizes him to keeping them on his Earth to help and heal them before sending them back. While he succeeds, and even is able to help the other two Spideys rectify past pain and sins, he loses absolutely everything in the process. May is dead, and there's no one left on Earth that remembers him. He is now utterly alone in a way no other Spider-Man is, but he still trudges on as a hero.]]
* ClarkKentOutfit: Much like the source material. Peter's everyday outfits aren't especially baggy or ill-fitting, but are just casual enough to hide his muscles.
* ColossusClimb: Once Ant-Man grows to giant size, Spider-Man climbs on him, first acting as a nuisance before using his webbing to entangle his legs.
* CombatParkour: A lot of his fighting movements involve jumping, climbing, and swinging.
* ComesGreatResponsibility: Par the norm for the character. He tells Tony that he carries out superheroics (even when the Avengers and other superheroes exist) because he feels as though bad things happen to other people if he doesn't, and after what presumably happened with Uncle Ben, he doesn't want anyone to suffer by his inaction. He also declines to try out for the football team even though he's always wanted to play, as it wouldn't be fair with his superhuman abilities.
* CompositeCharacter: He's a young Peter Parker with his scientific knowledge and a modernized take on his family life, but he also borrows from ComicBook/MilesMorales. Like Miles, he attends a specialist academy for gifted students, and his best friend is himself a composite of Miles Morales' friend Ganke Lee and Peter's friend Ned Leeds. Additionally, his being recruited by Tony Stark shortly after starting his career as Spider-Man is much like how [[ComicBook/UltimateSpiderMan Ultimate Peter]] and later Miles was recruited by Nick Fury -- whose MCU counterpart would go on to mentor him in ''Far From Home''. He's also a huge fanboy of the older superheroes just like Peter from ''WesternAnimation/UltimateSpiderMan2012''. [[spoiler:''No Way Home'' ends with him being erased from everyone's memory, including his allies and loved ones, which makes him similar to ComicBook/TheSentry, and takes some inspiration from the Miles in ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse'' due to being the youngest of the three Spider-Men and losing a family member at the hands of the film's main antagonist.
* CoolMask: Would he really be Spider-Man without the iconic mask? This one is unique in that it's also an ExpressiveMask, something that is achieved in live-action for the first time.
* CovertPervert:
** In ''Far From Home'', Happy reveals that after the airport battle in ''Civil War'', Peter discreetly (possibly accidentally) ordered a porn movie while recovering in the hotel. Peter's not too happy to be reminded of this.
** He also takes plenty of glances at his female love interests when (he thinks) they're not looking.
* CunningLinguist: Takes Spanish lessons at school, and at least knows enough to pull off a BilingualBackfire.
* CurseCutShort: His final line in ''Far From Home'' is "WHAT THE F--" before an abrupt cut to the credits. For context, he's been framed for murder and terrorism and has been publicly outed as Peter Parker while on a date with MJ.
* CuteBruiser: A young man with boyish good looks who can effortlessly catch a prosthetic arm made of titanium with one hand and hold together a boat that was torn in half.
* CutHimselfShaving: In the ''Civil War'' post-credits scene, he tries to brush off the injuries he received in the large-scale airport battle as just being from a fight with "[[ExactWords a Brooklynite named Steve and his huge friend]]," which is entirely true.
* DeadpanSnarker: He's more snarky than deadpan, but he gets in a few good ones.
-->'''Falcon:''' I don't know if you've been in a fight before, but there's usually not this much talking.\\
'''Spider-Man:''' Alright, sorry, my bad. ''[goes right back to beating up Falcon and Winter Soldier]''
* DeathAmnesia: He apparently doesn’t remember being snapped out of existence by Thanos and simply attributes it to "passing out". According to ''Series/WandaVision'' and ''Series/{{Hawkeye|2021}}'', seems that many of the Vanished don't remember being snapped, either.
* DeconReconSwitch:
** His younger age puts a tighter narrative focus on how being a teen aged superhero can compromise your personal life at a uniquely messy point. Before becoming Spider-Man, he was involved in several extracurricular activities and much closer to his friends and family. Most of the time he doesn't flake on them to fight a crime-in-progress but to simply go on patrol, looking for trouble. Furthermore, he's also more child than adult and acts the part. Yes, he is extremely intelligent, but his naïvety, poor judgement, weak impulse control, unthinking destructiveness, and lack of introspection and self-awareness are all things that you could honestly expect to see from someone his age in his position. He may be a prodigy, but he's still a teenager and teenagers do stupid stuff. With that said, however, his young age and inexperience also give him a strong moral compass and a desire to help out as many people as he can, including the average joes the Avengers tend to ignore. This makes Peter decide to turn down the offer to join the team as he can fill that niche while Stark and his teammates can't.
** The MCU incarnation as a whole is supposed to this to the tropes that have defined Spider-Man since his debut in TheSixties, particularly the "Self-sufficient superhero" and "[[WorkingClassHero Friendly neighborhood Spider-Man]]" aspects by making them take place in TheNewTens. Peter is introduced as having built his own web-shooters and fighting crime in a costume, but his gear is ''much'' lower-grade than that of the Avengers and his costume barely passes as a B-grade cosplay. In addition, his secret identity is far harder to maintain due the rise of the rapid coverage of news and social media. In general, this Peter ''was'' a self-sufficient hero -with all the troubles it entailed- but in order to get his hands on the proper gear and maintenance to deal with larger threats he needed outside funding.
* DespairEventHorizon: [[spoiler:After watching his Aunt May die in his arms, being subsequently attacked by Damage Control, and J. Jonah Jameson continuing to blame Spider-Man for everything that has happened thus far, Peter completely crumbles emotionally, and is clearly on the brink of giving up all hope. He's thankfully convinced to soldier on by his fellow variants, though it takes them quite a bit of convincing.]]
* DestructiveSavior: Specifically in his first solo movie, ''Homecoming'', where his inexperience is showcased at every turn. In his swings he often breaks stuff and, when dealing with the bad guys, has a tendency to cause more damage than might have occurred without his intervention.
* {{Determinator}}: Very much so. His response to having most of a warehouse dropped on him is, after a moment of panic, to recreate the classic LoadBearingHero moment from the "Master Planner" arc.
* DidNotGetTheGirl:
** In ''Homecoming'' regarding his first major crush Liz. Seeing how he ends up handing her father over to the authorities, which leads to her moving to Oregon, and they were on somewhat bad terms since he was forced to ditch her at the dance, it makes sense that things were doomed for them after that.
** Averted, however, in ''Far From Home,'' where he hooks up with MJ. ''No Way Home'', [[spoiler:however, plays this straight. To prevent the universe from getting overcrowded with multiversal villains who knew his identity, Peter tells Strange to cast a new spell to make everyone forget who Peter Parker is, Michelle included. He gets the opportunity to tell her, but decides not to since her life has less danger without him in it.]]
* DiedInYourArmsTonight: He disintegrates in Tony Stark's arms after Thanos snaps his fingers and kills half the universe's population.
* DitzyGenius: In ''No Way Home'' when he, MJ and Ned don't get into MIT due to him being Spider-Man, Peter contacts Dr. Strange to cast a spell to make everyone forget his secret identity, except for MJ, Ned, May, Happy, and pretty much everyone who knew he was Spider-Man before he was exposed. Due to the dangers of Peter constantly rewriting his spell, a belligerent Strange calls it off. He apologizes to Peter, stating that even though MIT didn't accept them and Peter pleaded his case...
-->'''Peter:''' Wait. You can do that? I just assumed once you were rejected that was it.\\
'''Strange:''' ''[a mixture of horror and anger]'' I'm sorry... Are you telling me that you didn't even ''think'' to plead your case with them first before you asked me to ''brainwash the entire world''?\\
'''Peter:''' ...Well, I mean, when you put it like ''that''...
* DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength: Peter has pretty good control over his super strength, but said control humorously slips up a few times when he's nervous or upset. In ''Far From Home'', his abilities appear to be getting stronger, leading to a few slip ups with his strength. While on the bus, he accidentally knocks Flash unconscious while trying to get Tony's glasses back from him and hitting his face. Peter is comically horrified at this. While getting into a car with Happy, he accidentally snaps the seat-belt off from the car when trying to put it on.
* DontTellMama: He doesn't tell Aunt May about his super-heroics because she'd freak out which would make ''him'' freak out. He webs Tony's hand to the door knob of his room and firmly says "Don't tell Aunt May" when Tony is about to leave.
* DorkKnight: As heroic as the source material and other adaptations of the character, but more geekier this time around.
* DrivesLikeCrazy: Part of the climax of ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'' involves him rushing across New York in a car. His reckless driving is partly because he's desperate to catch up to the Vulture, but mostly because he's only ever driven slowly around a parking lot under Aunt May's supervision.
* DumpsterDive: Due to being lower-class, he ends up taking useful stuff (like ''the'' Macintosh) from a junkyard and snatching usable items people have thrown out.
* EagerRookie: In ''Infinity War'', he's the teen who sneaks inside the Q-Ship in order to help Tony Stark after the latter has sent him away out of fear for his safety. In his defense, Peter notes that one can't be a low-key neighborhood hero if said neighborhood ends up being destroyed, and Tony can't object to that.
* EarlyBirdCameo:
** Depending on which MCU actor or creator you talk to, the boy wearing the Iron Man mask that Tony saves from the Hammer drone in ''Film/IronMan2'' is actually a younger Peter.[[note]]Creator/KevinFeige would not officially confirm this, since it's a {{Retcon}} to a movie that was made well before Sony and Marvel started cooperating.[[/note]] Worth noting is that Peter does have a Stark Expo poster in his room.
** Like Doctor Strange in ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier'', he is alluded to in a Phase 2 movie before his Phase 3 debut.[[note]]It was originally '''not''' meant to refer to Spider-Man in particular, as ''Ant-Man'' finished shooting before the deal between Sony and Marvel, but it has since been revised into being an allusion to the wall-crawler.[[/note]] Scott Lang's buddy, Luis, mentions that he heard something about Spidey in a chain of conversation:
--->'''Luis:''' We've got a guy who can [[InASingleBound jump]]. A guy who can [[BuildingSwing swing]]. A guy who can [[WallCrawl crawl up walls]].
* EmbarrassingNickname:
** "Underoos", which Tony calls him during the Avengers Civil War.
** "Penis Parker", which Flash used to call him.
** And thanks to Ned's terrible skills at improvising nicknames, his Black Stealth-Suit Persona in Europe is known as "Night Monkey."
* EstablishingCharacterMoment:
** In his first official appearance, Peter is introduced not as Spider-Man saving someone, but as a young teen bringing a disused VCR home and completely geeking out at the sight of Tony Stark physically in his home. However, while his reaction is a positive one, he's also obviously bothered by a genius, billionaire, playboy philanthropist visiting what should've been a normal Queens apartment, demonstrating his caution over his SecretIdentity.
** If you count the EarlyBirdCameo in ''Iron Man 2'', Peter Parker distracting the rampaging Hammeroid drones speaks a lot about his capacity for heroism well before he gained superpowers.
* EvenTheLovingHeroHasHatedOnes:
** In ''Far From Home'', Peter comes to deeply resent [[spoiler:Quentin Beck AKA Mysterio]], after all of the horrible things he's done, such as [[spoiler:manipulating Peter's emotions]], [[spoiler:putting him through MindRape]], and [[spoiler:targeting his loved ones]]. In the FinalBattle, Peter shows NoSympathy as [[spoiler:Mysterio lies dying from an [[HoistByHisOwnPetard unintentionally self-inflicted]] wound]] and does not attempt to SaveTheVillain like he did with the [[Film/SpiderManHomecoming Vulture]].
** In ''No Way Home'', Peter spends most of the film on a mission to {{Save the Villain}}s, trying to cure the various ailments of the multiversally-displaced villains rather than just sending them back to their own universes to be killed fighting Spider-Man because he feels morally obligated to help everyone he can. However, the Green Goblin becomes an exception to this after he [[spoiler:kills Aunt May. In their final showdown, Peter fights him with a rage unlike any he's shown previously, and even comes perilously close to breaking his ThouShaltNotKill rule before [[Film/SpiderManTrilogy Peter 2]] stops him.
* TheEveryman: A staple of the character. Compared to [[ComicBook/IronMan a millionaire playboy]], [[ComicBook/CaptainAmerica an idolized war hero]], and [[ComicBook/TheMightyThor a god]]; Peter was just an OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent prior to gaining his powers before he JumpedAtTheCall.
* EveryoneCanSeeIt: His crush on Liz, including ''Liz herself.'' Fortunately, she likes Peter too.
* ExpressiveMask:
** In a live-action example, the irises on Spidey's mask visibly contract. If one were to look and listen closely, you can see when the irises get smaller, they look like camera lenses zooming in and you can also hear a mechanical noise. The reason for this is given during Peter Parker's first encounter with Tony Stark. Peter explains that while in "Spidey mode", he needs goggles that restrict his vision to not have his SuperSenses become overwhelming. The mechanical irises provide the same advantage.
** The eyes on Peter Parker's mask widen in stupefied disbelief as [[spoiler:Mysterio publicly blows his secret identity wide open on Broadway's Megavision]].
* ExtremityExtremist: An {{Enforced|Trope}} InvertedTrope during ''Homecoming''. [[WordOfGod According to]] Creator/KevinFeige, the choreography in Spider-Man's battles is planned in a way that allows him to never actually throw any punches. This is actually quite similar to how Marvel approached the character in ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManTheAnimatedSeries'' -- and that version of Spider-Man only landed a single punch over the course of the entire series. Peter uses a lot more punches and kicks in ''Infinity War''.
* FaceDeathWithDespair: Once Peter Parker realizes that he's being turned to dust by Thanos's snap, he starts crying, embraces Tony Stark and pleads, "I don't want to go. Please, Mr. Stark, I don't want to go." Considering he's a 16-year-old kid, this is a perfectly understandable reaction.
* FanBoy: Of the Avengers, but mainly Iron Man and Captain America. While being a fan of the former ends up being a significant focus of his character arc across his first five appearances in the MCU, the latter is handled with more subtlety. For instance, in ''Far From Home'', when [[spoiler:Mysterio is in the middle of trying to psychologically break Spider-Man by exploiting his insecurities, they fight on top of a projection of a toppled Captain America statue, implying that Captain America no longer leading the Avengers is something that weighs heavily upon his mind]].
* FatalFlaw: Impulsiveness, and a tendency to not think things through.
** This is evident in the airport battle in ''Civil War'', where he deliberately goes against Tony's instructions and fights the Falcon and Winter Soldier head on in order to "impress Mr. Stark". He's later distracted by his victory over Giant-Man and promptly gets knocked out.
** His urge to become an Avenger is a continuing theme in ''Homecoming'', which has some serious consequences when the ferry incident nearly gets everyone killed. By the end, he's more or less come to terms with it and turns down a serious offer to join the team.
** In ''Infinity War'', his insistence on personally helping out puts him on a crash-course with '''Thanos''', in spite of Iron Man's attempt to get him to land safely back on Earth. He defends the decision by saying he can't be a friendly neighborhood Spider-Man if there ''is'' no neighborhood. This trope is ultimately zig-zagged in this instance, as he actually survives the fight with Thanos unscathed, and makes things better for the team than if he hadn't been there at all. He only dies when Thanos snuffs out half of all sapient life, which would have logically killed him regardless of where he was at the time.
** In ''No Way Home'', [[spoiler:his jumping into extreme, rather than mundane measures to restore his secret identity and aid his loved ones ultimately ends in a horrific case of DisasterDominoes, culminating in him losing his last remaining relative, friends and Avengers allies]].
* FighterMageThief: He's the Mage alongside Peter 2's Fighter and Peter 3's Thief in ''No Way Home'', utilizing his scientific mind and technology much more than them, as well as being more in tune with his SpiderSense.
* FightingClown: Most of the seasoned heroes quickly peg him as an overeager kid in underoos, having loads of fun and not taking the fight seriously... until the moment they really clash against him, and they realize just how strong, fast, versatile and dangerous he actually is. He proves to be perfectly able to take on ''Winter Soldier and Falcon simultaneously'', and then able to ''kick Captain America's ass''; it's only Steve's greater combat experience that allows him to prevail. Though Peter's comparative youth also means no-one probably wanted to hit him too hard.
* FinalFirstHug: Tony largely keeps himself emotionally distant from him, rebuffing a hug from him in ''Spider-Man: Homecoming''. When Thanos's BadassFingersnap culls half the universe's population in ''Infinity War'', and Peter is one of the victims, all Tony does is hug the terrified, crying boy as he [[DiedInYourArmsTonight disintegrates in his arms]]. They get a proper hug in ''Endgame'' once Peter has been brought back to life by Bruce and Tony sees him again since his death. The BigBadassBattleSequence that begins right after costs Tony his life.
-->'''Peter:''' ''[surprised]'' Wow... this is nice.
* FirstKiss: In ''Far From Home'', Peter shares his first kiss with MJ on the Tower Bridge at the end of the climactic battle.
* {{Foil}}: Peter plays off quite a few of the Pro-Registration Avengers in ''Civil War''. In particular, Spider-Man is a foil to...
** Black Panther. Both are independent superheroes who initially have no connection to the Avengers, but end up getting involved in the conflict. T'Challa is very reserved, serious, and is utterly indifferent towards the Avengers, while Peter is mouthy, a jokester, and worships the ground the Avengers walk on.
** To Iron Man. Both are [[RedIsHeroic superheroes dressed in red]], scientific geniuses who fashioned their own suits and tools (even if Pete's original suit was just a homemade onesie with swimming goggles and a red ski mask), and both are very witty wisecrackers, who sometimes use their wittiness to hide their emotional pain. Both, however, come from radically different economic backgrounds: Tony was born into money and is a [[CrimefightingWithCash successful billionaire inventor with unlimited money and cutting-edge tech at his fingertips]], while Pete's family is of [[WorkingClassHero comparatively modest means, and everything he built was made from what he could scrounge]]. Age also plays a big part in differentiating them: by the time Tony and Peter meet, Tony has been saving the world as Iron Man for some years, while Peter has been playing the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man for only a few months. Tony has more experience under his belt and is all the wiser for it, while Peter is young and naïve, not quite realizing the limits of his strengths until they come back to bite him in the ass. Both are also {{chick magnet}}s but while Tony was a womanizer before settling down with Pepper, Peter only has two love interests he primarily focuses on in his respective solo movies.
** To Captain America. Both are New York natives (Steve is from Brooklyn, Peter from Queens) who come from less privileged backgrounds, JumpedAtTheCall, and are so eager to do the right thing that they will ignore orders or attempt to punch outside their weight class. Cap is a much more strategic combatant where Spidey is a bit more impulsive. As of ''No Way Home'' [[spoiler:Peter Parker has also lost all contact with his friends and family, like Steve Rogers. Except in his case it was due to a spell that wiped all knowledge of Peter Parker rather than being frozen for decades.]]
** To Ant-Man. Both of them are new heroes whose abilities and names are based off of arthropods. Both are the SixthRanger to their side, are extremely intelligent and quirky, and turn the tide of the airport battle repeatedly. The difference is Scott is WeakButSkilled while Peter is UnskilledButStrong. They're also at the opposite ends of the age range, with Peter being in high school while Scott is a parent. Also, while Peter looks up to Tony Stark and was told that Cap went rogue, Scott worships Captain America and was warned by Hank Pym not to trust Iron Man.
* FriendlyEnemy:
** He may be taking a side in the airport fight, but he has no ill will towards the Anti-Registration team. It doesn't take long for Cap to acknowledge his good heart.
** He briefly bonds with Aaron Davis, a small-time criminal, while "interrogating" him, and Davis appreciates Spider-Man previously saving his life from Vulture's gang.
** He has no personal beef with the Vulture, and even saves him when his wings malfunction, but can't let him get away with filling the streets with dangerous weapons.
* FunPersonified: He's the most upbeat and enthusiastic member of the Avengers.
* GadgeteerGenius: He designed a formula for bio-synthetic webbing and constructed it with scraps from the garbage without previous exposure to a lab or engineering. He also sketched the design for and created his web shooters using leftovers from the dumpster. Tony Stark is visibly impressed with this in their first meeting. While Tony Stark or Shuri have had resources and opportunities to spare as to improve their tech, Peter [[WorkingClassHero has managed to make do with the small stuff]]. Peter also mentions building and programming computers in his spare time, and he uses his knowledge of physics in both ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'' and ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming''. He identifies Falcon's wings as being constructed of carbon-fiber due to their "flexibility-rigidity ratio" and uses that to his advantage, and uses his suit's A.I. system to pinpoint the strongest points in the ferry in order to web it together.
* GeniusBruiser: One strong hero, but is also a TeenGenius in terms of [[GadgeteerGenius engineering]], physics, chemistry, and tactics in combat. He mainly lacks experience and makes errors in judgement typical of his age and excitable personality, and there's no reason either can't improve with time.
* GenreSavvy: He uses his knowledge of ''Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack'' to come up with the means of taking down Giant-Man by tripping him over. In ''Homecoming'' he's swift to note that the super-villains will ''obviously'' have a lair. ''Infinity War'' continues it, by having him use the "create an airlock to suck the bad guy out of the ship" tactic from ''Film/{{Aliens}}''.
* TheGlovesComeOff: Upon returning to Earth in ''Endgame'' as part of TheCavalry in the FinalBattle, he immediately does away with subtlety against the Outriders by activating his suit's "Instant Kill" mode. [[spoiler: Also, in Peter and Green Goblin's rematch in ''No Way Home'', he was hitting Gobby with intent to end his life, getting very close to impaling him with his glider before being stopped by Peter 2.]]
* GogglesDoSomethingUnusual: After Tony snarks at the goggles of his prototype costume, Peter defends them saying it helps him focus through the SensoryOverload of his Spider-Sense.
* GoodCannotComprehendEvil: [[spoiler:After defeating Mysterio, and looking at the carnage and rampage he caused in his quest to be a HeroWannabe, Peter asks, "How could you do this?".]]
[[/folder]]
[[folder:H-M]]
* AHandfulForAnEye: During the fight in Titan, he blinds Thanos by webbing his eyes and kicking him in the face so that Doctor Strange and Drax have an opportunity to land hits in him.
* HasAType: Though perhaps not intentionally on the part of the filmmakers, both of his love interests just so happen to be extremely smart, beautiful African-American girls who are much taller than he is.
* HealingFactor: He's no ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}, but not only can Peter [[SuperToughness tank serious damage]], he quickly bounces back after a few hours of rest. Giant-Man left him battered and disoriented, but by the end of ''Civil War'', he's recovered enough that he only has a few superficial bruises and a cut lip. Toomes drops a literal ''building'' on his head and while it takes some HeroicResolve so find the strength to dig himself out, he's ready to fight shortly after. [[spoiler:In ''Far From Home'', Quentin Beck maneuvers Peter into the path of a '''bullet train''' that creams him head on, leaving him the most injured he's been in a film yet... But after a night's sleep, all that's left are a few bruises and a limp. By the time he's finally back home a couple of days later, you can barely tell he was in a fight at all.]]
* HeroAntagonist: In ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'', he's recruited by Tony to hunt Captain America and his team, even though he shows respect and {{Squee}} towards the Anti-Accords Avengers he's fighting against.
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:To help mend the multiverse, he allows a reluctant Doctor Strange to revamp his spell to erase the memory of Peter Parker from everybody he's ever known and loved, including [=MJ=], Ned, Happy and the other Avengers.]]
* HeroicSpirit: ''Never'' gives up. After Stark confiscates the suit, Peter barely hesitates to go after the Vulture in his old BetaOutfit. And even after Toomes buries him under half a building's worth of rubble, even while hurt and panicking, a trapped Peter decides that he doesn't need the suit to be a hero, leading to a loose adaptation of the page image.
-->'''Peter:''' Come on, Peter. [[SurvivalMantra Come on, Spider-Man. Come on, Spider-Man. Come on, Spider-Man!]] AAAGH! ''COME ON, SPIDER-MAN!!''
* HeroOfAnotherStory: In ''Civil War''. Tony learns about Spider-Man through popular Website/YouTube clips and figures out his secret identity, allowing him to recruit Spidey for Team Iron Man. After the airport battle, Tony tells Peter he's not ready to join the Avengers full-time and sends him back to New York for [[Film/SpiderManHomecoming his own adventures]].
* AHeroToHisHometown: The residents of Queens know and almost universally love him, and even the news can't help but mention Spidey is "Queens' own."
* HeroWithBadPublicity:
** Downplayed. As Peter's just starting out he doesn't really ''have'' a reputation, good or bad. People mostly treat him as some weird curiosity off of [=YouTube=].
--->'''Street Vendor:''' Hey! You're that spider guy on [=YouTube=], right?\\
'''Spider-Man:''' Call me Spider-Man.\\
'''Street Vendor:''' OK, "Spider-Man". Do a flip!\\
''[Spider-Man does a flip]''\\
'''Street Vendor:''' YEAH!
** By the end of ''Far From Home'', [[spoiler:Peter is framed for killing Quentin Beck and for the drone attacks thanks to doctored footage being shown on the Daily Bugle--one of the people of whom watching the report on this is ''Venom''.]] The effects of this was shown in ''No Way Home''.
* HiddenDepths:
** A FreezeFrameBonus of his bedroom in ''Homecoming'' shows posters and pennants that confirm he's a New York Mets fan, just like his comic book counterpart.
** Before the spider-bite, he was apparently in the school marching band and robotics club.
* HowDoIShootWeb: Literally. He gets into a spot of trouble with this after he and Ned hack his suit and remove the "Training Wheels Protocol", designed to ease him into the suit's various features. As a result, he has ''no idea'' how to use most of them at first -- many of which include ''over two hundred variations'' of the web shooters. Luckily for him, the guys he was tracking were having ''[[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments the exact same problem]]'', with Schultz trying to figure out the dampers on the gauntlet.
* HumiliationConga: What ''Homecoming'' ends up giving him. In his attempt to impress Tony Stark to land a seat in the Avengers, combined with Happy [[PoorCommunicationKills unwittingly making it feel like he's completely ignoring Peter despite clearly noting everything sent his way]], Peter strives to overachieve and ends up making massive mistakes after being warned to "keep himself on the ground", [[spoiler:complete with Tony taking his gifted suit back.]] This is on top of constantly letting his decathlon team down and disappointing friends, school staff and even Aunt May to push his "Stark internship" and urge to prove himself over his personal life. By the end of the movie, Peter moves to stop Toomes as ''Spider-Man'' on principles, not as the young Parker trying to impress, [[spoiler:and opts to stay a HumbleHero rather than join the Avengers -- something that Tony was totally about to do for him despite Peter thinking it was all a SecretTestOfCharacter like the rest of the film.]]
* ICanStillFight: Tries to get up and continue fighting after being briefly knocked unconscious, insisting he can go on even after Stark tells him he's done. It isn't until he tries to get up again that he realizes how injured he is.
* IconicAttributeAdoptionMoment: Prior to being recruited by Tony Stark, Spider-Man wore a crude costume consisting of a hoodie and sweatpants, modified welding goggles, and prototype web-shooters. He later gets a new comicbook-style suit in the lines of what we saw in the Raimi Trilogy and the Webb duology.
* IfIWantedYouDead: During his broadcast to the multiversal villains near the climax of ''No Way Home'', he tells them that he really did try to help them, pointing out that he could have sent them back to their universes to die at any given moment, but he didn't.
* IKnowMortalKombat:
** In ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'', Spidey manages to take down Giant-Man by replicating the strategy Luke Skywalker came up with in ''Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack'' to take down the AT-AT.
** In ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'', he comes up with a strategy that Ellen Ripley used in ''Film/{{Aliens}}'' to kill the Xenomorph Queen as a way of killing Ebony Maw.
* ILetGwenStacyDie: It's implied that he decided to become a superhero after he failed to prevent his uncle's death, which he feels responsible for. While he doesn't explain specifically what happened, he says that when you have his abilities and don't use them for good, and then "the bad things happen... they happen because of you".
* InASingleBound: His jumps are as crucial to the way he gets around as the webs. At one point, he casually does a standing jump over a gate significantly taller than him.
* InTheEndYouAreOnYourOwn: [[spoiler:After Peter has Strange erase everybody's memories of him, he ends up the most alone anybody in the MCU has ever been. He still decides to fight on as Spider-Man thanks to [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatResponsibility the lessons Aunt May and his multiverse counterparts]] left him with, fighting crime independently while flat broke in a professional suit of his own making just like his comic book incarnations.]]
* IntergenerationalFriendship:
** With Tony Stark starting in ''Civil War'', almost to the point of Tony being a sort of ParentalSubstitute.
** Briefly gets along with Captain America in spite of the two heroes fighting on opposing sides.
** Also forms this bond with Happy Hogan starting at the end of ''Homecoming''.
** Quentin Beck [[spoiler:insincerely]] takes up the role in ''Far From Home''.
** He develops a small one with Doctor Strange in ''No Way Home'' after the events of ''Infinity War'' and ''Endgame'', though it's complicated due to his part in messing up the spell that brought the Multiversal Villains to their universe.
** [[spoiler:He also befriends his older AlternateUniverse counterparts, Peter-2 and Peter-3.]]
* {{Irony}}:
** From ''Civil War'' to ''Endgame'', Peter is mostly ignored by the more experienced superheroes despite his interest in graduating from "friendly neighborhood Spider-Man" status to a core Avenger. By the time ''Far From Home'' comes around, Peter is now extremely reluctant to step up to the role they once played, even if said experienced heroes are either dead, off-world, or retired, which more-or-less ''requires'' Spider-Man to fill that niche.
** In the comics, Spider-Man predated the avengers and debuted as an independent KidHero (where young heroes were sidekicks at the time). Not only does MCU Spider-Man appear after the appearance of the avengers and was essentially a hero-in-training, [[spoiler:he became independent after having his Peter Parker identity {{Retgone}} in ''No Way Home''.]]
* ItsPersonal: [[spoiler:With Green Goblin who murders Aunt May. He even tries to kill him with his own glider's blades knowing full well the relatively innocent Norman personality is still inside him, which would have made him the murderer he's accused of being throughout ''No Way Home'' had Peter 2 not stopped him. Peter has ''NEVER'' gone this far with any villain before, and stands in stark contrast to his rescue of Vulture at the end of ''Homecoming'' to show how much Goblin [[ArchEnemy hurt him]].]]
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: [[spoiler:While in the new reality where he has been erased from everyone's memory, Peter cannot find the right words to remind MJ who he is, and what they were to each other before Strange's spell. He still can't help but give off a smile when learning that she, and Ned, have both been accepted to MIT, and she seems to be a much more optimistic than she was before. In the end he decides for the time being, she's better off not knowing who he is, as it will keep her safe.]]
* IWillFindYou: [[spoiler:Just before he is erased from her memory, Peter promises MJ he will find her again, and make everything right between them.]]
* JackOfAllTrades: Spider-Man has a wide variety of powers, but usually in a middle position when it comes to each one.
* JumpedAtTheCall: Since his SuperheroOrigin story happens off-screen in this version, six months have passed since Peter got his powers and he's introduced as an eager and enthusiastic young hero. His HeroWorship towards the Avengers from then on pretty much motivates him to be the best superhero he can be, although by ''Far From Home'' he has grown fairly weary of Superheroics and is up for a break. As ''Homecoming'' director Jon Watts says in an interview, "Peter loves being Spider-Man. He doesn't like being Peter Parker."
* JustAKid: {{Deconstructed|Trope}}. Being treated like a kid by Tony despite being a superhero only irritates Peter to the point he wants to prove he's mature enough to be an Avenger... but the way he proves it is by doing reckless stunts that only further prove that he's not ready. By the end of ''Homecoming'', he has been humbled enough to realize this and recognize that he still needs training before becoming an Avenger.
* JustFollowingOrders: He treats the airport brawl as a means of currying favor with "Mr. Stark" and holds absolutely no ill will to any of the other heroes. It remains to be seen whether any of the anti-Accords fighters will hold a grudge, but given he's an impressionable (and ''powerful'') teenager who thinks they're all ''awesome'' and was drawn into a conflict he only heard one side of the story about, it's not likely. Cap at the very least is impressed with him and recognizes his potential.
* KidHasAPoint: In ''Infinity War,'' as he and Tony argue inside the Q-ship, he comes up with the line that Tony can't rebuff:
-->'''Peter:''' You can't be a friendly neighborhood Spider-Man if there's no neighborhood.
* KidHero: He's still in high school when he's introduced, making him the youngest superhero in the setting.
* KidSidekick: Becomes Iron Man's on-off sidekick, with him assisting the seasoned hero and being mentored by him on many occasions.
* KillTheCutie: He's one of the many victims of Thanos's BadassFingersnap at the end of ''Infinity War'', something that weighs heavily on Iron Man's conscience. It's the reminder of his death that sparks Tony's motivation to join the Avengers in one last fight to bring the Snapped victims back.
* {{Knighting}}: After two films of him trying to convince Tony Stark to let him become an Avenger, Peter tags along in ''Infinity War'' when Tony jumps onto a spaceship leaving Earth. Since Tony has no way of sending him home and they've reached the [[PointOfNoReturn point of no return]], he taps Peter on his shoulders like he's knighting him, and announces, "Alright kid... you're an Avenger now." It takes Peter a second to realize what just happened.
* KnightInSourArmor: The entire point of his CharacterDevelopment. Over time, Peter finds out how dangerous and demanding being a superhero is to both himself and his loved ones, and his ordeals just keeps getting harder. Ultimately, [[spoiler:it gets to a point where Peter [[UnPerson sacrifices his own personal life]] to fix a CosmicFlaw he accidentally caused.]]
* TheKnightsWhoSaySquee: During the big fight of ''Civil War'', he keeps geeking out about the other heroes. Yes, [[FriendlyEnemy that's including the ones he fights against]].
** When he shows up after stealing Cap's shield.
--->'''Spider-Man:''' Cap-Captain. Big fan. Spider-Man
** After blocking a punch from {{cyborg}} Bucky Barnes.
--->'''Spider-Man:''' You have a metal arm!? That is awesome, dude!\\
'''Bucky:''' ???
** After exchanging blows with Falcon:
--->'''Spider-Man:''' Are those carbon fiber wings? That would explain the rigidity flexibility ratio, which, gotta say, that's awesome, man.\\
'''Falcon:''' I don't know if you've ever been in a fight before, but [[MotorMouth there's usually not this much talking]].
* TheLeader: [[spoiler:After some critical experiences with the Avengers, Peter uses his familiarity with working as a team to give direction to Peter 2 and Peter 3 as they corral the multiversal villains on Liberty Island in ''No Way Home''. He shows tremendous potential for any future situations that could require the same skills.]]
* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: His introduction in the second ''Civil War'' trailer has Tony Stark announce to the world at large that he's run out of patience, which cues Spidey to grab Captain America's shield and proceed to greet the cast but also the audience that has been waiting for him to show up.
-->'''Spider-Man:''' Hey, everyone.
* LeeroyJenkins: His blind impulsiveness and tendency to jump right into situations without any real planning or idea of how he's going to finish what he started or adapt to setbacks is a major weakness of his and leads to his making one mistake after another. [[JustifiedTrope It's justified]] in that he's in his mid-teens and is simply acting his age.
* LetsGetDangerous: Peter drops his usual giddy and excitable approach to fighting in the FinalBattle against Mysterio when the villain targets his friends. His expression becomes grim and serious when taking down his foe.
* LightningBruiser: Tough, durable, strong, agile, and fast enough to run rings around everyone during the airport fight, talking all the while and not even close to getting out of breath. The only thing that manages to hurt him is a punch from the giant Ant-Man, who could crush and overpower the Iron Man armor.
* LikeASonToMe: He has this dynamic with Tony Stark who Peter looks up to as a father figure, mentoring him in the way of a superhero.
* LittleStowaway: In ''Infinity War'', Tony Stark refers to him as this (being the youngest and least experienced member of our heroes) on finding he's also hidden on the spacecraft taking them to Thanos, after Tony supposedly sent him back to Earth because he thought it was a SuicideMission.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: According to Peter himself, the only background to the airport fight Stark told him about is that Cap is wrong, but he thinks he's right. Cap even {{lampshade|Hanging}}s this and tells him that there's more going on than he thinks. Unfortunately, Stark also told Spidey that Cap would say that. A flashback in ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'' goes deeper and shows that the only thing Peter was actually told was that [[BlatantLies Captain America has gone crazy]] and needed to be stopped.
* TheManMakesTheWeapon: Discussed. Peter protests when Tony tries to take away his suit, stating he was nothing without it. Tony then chides that if he was nothing without the suit then he shouldn't have it to begin with. Peter then is made aware of an emergency only he can stop, and deals with it without the high-tech suit Tony made him, proving he was indeed the one who was of more value than the suit.
* ManOfKryptonite: [[spoiler:After mastering his SpiderSense, he becomes this to Mysterio himself. Rather befitting, given that Mysterio's abilities depend on playing with one's ''normal'' senses. This is shown in the final battle: Mysterio creates a [[CastingAShadow shroud of darkness]] to blind Spidey's vision and then has his drones open fire on him. This does ''nothing'' to Spidey, who dodges all the gunfire without an issue as he closes in on him and wins.]]
* TheMasqueradeWillKillYourDatingLife: He ditches Liz at the homecoming dance in order to stop Vulture, who also happens to be her father, permanently ending his relationship with her. Averted with MJ however, who is very involved with his work as Spider-Man.
* MentorsNewHope: Considering what Tony has been through around the time he meets Peter, it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to believe that mentoring Peter may be the one thing that has kept him from going back to resolving his sorrows in less appealing and constructive ways. He even tells Peter that he wants him to be a far better hero than he ever was without his track record of mistakes.
* MinorMajorCharacter: While he has made a name for himself as the unofficial protector of Queens InUniverse and has a fair amount of screen time in ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'', he has no real impact in the plot itself. His presence is meant to properly introduce him into the MCU and set up his appearances in future films, including his own trilogy, where he ''does'' play a major role.
* MirrorCharacter: [[spoiler:To Loki and He Who Remains from ''Series/Loki2021'' along with his variants from the Raimi and Webb universes. He Who Remains created the Sacred Timeline and Time Variance Authority to end the Multiversal War between all his variants, while Loki got to see first hand how quickly his variants would turn against each other. However Peter immediately bonded with Peter-2 and Peter-3, and his experiences with them helped him remain a hero and not give into rage and despair after May's death.]]
* MoralityPet: While Tony becomes a ParentalSubstitute for him in ''Homecoming'', Peter becomes this for him in a LittleBrotherIsWatching kind of way. He doesn't want Peter emulating his bad behavior and part of that is not behaving badly to begin with. In ''Endgame'', Tony stares at a picture of him and Peter together as if to show remorse for letting him die. Furthermore, it's implied that the desire to bring Peter back to life is what motivates Tony to work out the time travel plan.
* MortalityPhobia: Peter suitably freaks out as he's being erased by Thanos's use of the Infinity Gauntlet.
* MotiveDecay: Zig-zagged. His character arc during ''Homecoming'' has him chasing after a spot on the Avengers roster and gradually losing touch with his original mission of protecting the normal everyday citizens of New York. By the end of the movie, he decides that that's what he's best-suited for. He changes his mind again in ''Avengers: Infinity War'', but only because the planet is dealing with an alien invasion at the time, and that there's no sense protecting New York City if the planet gets destroyed. However, after saving the universe from Thanos and losing Tony, Peter opts to be the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man once again, finding the stress of being an Avengers-level hero to be too much. [[Film/SpiderManFarFromHome Unfortunately, Nick Fury has other plans...]]
* MotorMouth: Much like his mentor Tony Stark, he ''does not shut up.''
* MrFanservice:
** In his first solo film ''Homecoming''. He may be a kid, but his actor is ''[[DawsonCasting not]]'' and his lean physique is showcased twice, getting in and out of the suit.
** Peter's abs are also shown off briefly in ''Far From Home'' [[spoiler:as he's changing into his suit and [[FemaleGaze MJ tries to avoid the temptation to take a peek]].]]
** By ''No Way Home'', he has noticeably bulked up, both in the torso and the chest.
* MundaneUtility: He uses his webs to make hammocks in the promotional materials of ''Spider-Man: Homecoming''. In the film itself, he can briefly be seen using his webs to make a jump rope.
* MySisterIsOffLimits: Downplayed, he's shown to be irritated by his aunt's many admirers. Even responding with outright confusion when Happy Hogan compliments her dress.
* MythologyGag:
** Peter being recruited into the pro-registration side after six months of superheroing has shades of his ''[[WesternAnimation/UltimateSpiderMan2012 Ultimate Spider-Man]]'' cartoon self, who was recruited into S.H.I.E.L.D. after having been active on his own for a year. Both versions are also fans of the older superheroes, particularly Iron Man and Cap.
** He sports wings under his suit's arms, much like how he was drawn in his first appearance by Creator/SteveDitko. The wings also allow him to glide, which was not part of his original set of powers, but of [[ComicBook/SpiderWoman2014 Jessica Drew]] and [[ComicBook/SpiderMan2099 Miguel O'Hara]]. In comics, Spidey also received a special suit from Iron Man that had the potential to glide with wings (although that suit was made with Iron Man's colors and nicknamed the Iron Spider suit).
** Peter's Prototype uniform has a mixture of the Scarlet Spider's hoodie costume with a mask designed similar to ComicBook/SpiderManNoir's goggles.
** The Iron Spider's color scheme greatly resembles the ComicBook/SuperiorSpiderMan suit.
** Spider-Man was one of the founding members of the New Avengers, which he gets inducted into during ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar''.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:N-S]]
* NaiveNewcomer: In ''Civil War'', he knows next to nothing about the conflict he's been brought in to help end and just wants to make sure that nobody gets hurt. It's entirely possible that he would have sided with Captain America if he'd been more well-informed.
* {{Nephewism}}: His aunt raises him instead of his parents, who are not mentioned.
* NerdActionHero: A sci-fi loving nerd who is able to bench press a car and go toe-to-toe with most of the Avengers and even battle Thanos.
* NerdsAreSexy: He's a handsome, muscular geek.
* NeverMyFault: Played for laughs in ''Infinity War'' where he tells Tony it's technically his fault he went to outer space with him, despite making the choice himself, infuriating Tony.
* NiceGuy: He's a warm and good-natured person who ultimately wants to make the world safer with his powers. [[TheHeart Captain America]] even thinks he's a good kid in spite of being pitted against him. Even [[TheStoic Doctor Strange]], while annoyed by him every once in a while, admires his kindness and compassion, [[spoiler:especially after Peter insists he erases him from everybody's memories to save the multiverse.]]
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: He's Spider-Man, this is a pretty common occurrence for him in most media.
** In ''Far From Home'', [[spoiler:he foolishly gives the EDITH glasses over to Beck after seeing him supposedly perform a HeroicSacrifice to take down an Elemental which would've destroyed the world. This is combined with lingering SurvivorGuilt over Tony's death and feeling overwhelmed at the prospect of shouldering the legacy of Iron Man. Turns out it's just Beck deftly manipulating him using his bleeding edge holographic technology in his bid to become a FakeUltimateHero and very nearly gets him and his friends killed. Even then it creates lasting consequences for him going into ''No Way Home'' as it leads to Beck posthumously framing him for his "murder" and exposing Spider-Man's secret identity as Peter Parker.]]
** Screws up Strange's [[LaserGuidedAmnesia memory-wiping spell]] in ''No Way Home'' with his nervous chattering over the consequences and brings in extremely dangerous villains from other universes as a result.
* NoBodyLeftBehind: He is disintegrated along with half the universe after Thanos completes the Infinity Gauntlet.
* NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: In ''No Way Home'', Peter initially planned to just send the displaced villains home, as he felt like they weren't his responsibility. However, after being convinced by Aunt May and learning the villains are going to die, he has a change of heart and genuinely tries to help them. [[spoiler:This sets off a chain of events that leads to his Aunt May being killed, '''everyone''' in the MCU forgetting who he is, including his best friend and girlfriend, and being forced to drop out of high school to pursue a GED in New York while the former two go off to MIT in Boston.]] The trope name is even quoted by [[spoiler:the Goblin when he reveals himself.]]
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: [[spoiler:After previously being on the receiving end of a beatdown from Electro, the Lizard, and the Green Goblin, Peter ''wipes the floor'' with Osborn after the latter murders Aunt May, and [[IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim has to be stopped from finishing him off]] by Raimi-Spider-Man.]]
* NonchalantDodge: Casually moves his head to avoid a robber trying to repeatedly punch him. While hanging upside down from the ceiling.
* NormalFishInATinyPond: Although Peter is definitely stronger than a street-level hero, his power is overshadowed by guys like Iron Man, Hulk, Thor and Doctor Strange. In fact, Peter's goal during ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'' is to stop being in the small pond (street level), and join the big pond (The Avengers), even when Iron Man tells him he's not ready. This gets turned on its head in ''Far From Home''; Peter at this point has much more experience and his powers have matured greatly, but he himself would prefer to stay a small neighborhood hero, despite Nick Fury [[spoiler:(actually Talos)]] insisting that he ''is'' ready to join the big leagues.
* NotInThisForYourRevolution: He doesn't seem to care about the issues for the Sokovia Accords in ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'' even though his existence and activity (i.e. an independent superhero acting without government oversight) clearly violates it. He only joins Iron Man's team [[BecauseYouWereNiceToMe because Tony Stark]], a [[HeroWorshipper personal hero of his]], just showed up at his house and asked for his help.
* NotSoDifferentRemark:
** Although they're on different sides, Cap is pleasantly surprised that both he and Peter are good-hearted people from New York who fight for the little guy.
--->'''Captain America:''' You got heart, kid. Where you from?\\
'''Spider-Man:''' Queens!\\
'''Captain America:''' ''[smiles]'' Brooklyn.
** He and Toomes both come from working-class backgrounds, are scientifically minded and started their careers with reasonable goals only to suffer MotiveDecay. The difference is that Peter gets over his.
--->'''Toomes:''' Those people, Pete, those people up there, the rich and the powerful, they do whatever they want. Guys like us, like you and me... they don't care about us. We build their roads and we fight all their wars and everything. They don't care about us. We have to pick up after them. We have to eat their table scraps. That's how it is. I know you know what I'm talking about, Peter.
* ObliviousToLove: In ''Homecoming'' due to his crush on Liz he is unaware of MJ's feelings for him. By the beginning of ''Far From Home'', while he is finally putting it together that she likes him, he's been unaware that MJ has liked him for quite some time and well before he developed his feelings for her.
* OfficialCouple: By the end of ''Far From Home'', [[spoiler:he's with MJ.]] [[spoiler: 'Till the events of ''No Way Home'', as MJ's memories of Peter are wiped alongside the universe's. He chooses not to reconnect with her for the time being despite still loving her.]]
* OhCrap: Several:
** Has a massive one in TheStinger of ''Far From Home'' when [[spoiler:Mysterio frames him for his own death and publicly reveals his secret identity.]]
--->'''Spider-Man:''' WHAT THE [[CurseCutShort FU-]]
** It's subtle, but in ''No Way Home'', his reaction to [[spoiler:Green Goblin getting up like nothing happened and throwing him through a window after Peter had just stomped him through a concrete deck]] indicates that he has finally realized just how badly he underestimated [[spoiler:Goblin]] and how dire his situation truly is.
* OlderThanTheyLook: On a technicality, due to [[spoiler:being a resurrected victim of Thanos's snap. He was 16 at the time of his death, and he remained dead for five years. After being brought back from the dead could technically make him 21, but he's still biologically 16 due to being resurrected as he was, his body hasn't aged.]]
* OneManArmy: He's become this by the final act of ''Far From Home''. [[spoiler:It's him, by himself, against an army of advanced aerial drones armed with machine guns. Spidey wins.]]
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness:
** He was adamant over Karen not using her Instant-Kill Mode, firmly stating he doesn't want to kill anyone. But in ''Endgame'', he directly orders her to switch to said mode without any hesitation whatsoever.
** In most of his fights, Spider-Man will make small talk with his opponents and allies or comment on some interesting new development that's popped up. [[spoiler:In the final showdown in ''Far From Home'', he's angrier than he's ever been and takes on Mysterio and his drone army in almost complete silence.]]
** At the end of ''No Way Home'', [[spoiler:he is ''livid'' at Green Goblin for killing Aunt May that he unleashes a fierce pummeling and is ready to skewer Goblin with his own Goblin Glider]].
* OohMeAccentsSlipping: While Peter is American, his actor, Tom Holland, is British.
** After swiping Captain America's shield in ''Civil War'', you can hear Tom Holland's natural British accent, especially noticeable in the way he pronounces the "a" in "fan".
** Tom's British accent slips through in ''Infinity War'' as well, specifically the line "It never was" during his introduction to Peter Quill.
* OpenSecret: Peter is remarkably careless with his secret identity despite being one of the few heroes trying to maintain one. He gets caught multiple times by his friends and family and he introduces himself by his real name to everyone in the superhero community. [[spoiler:This proves to be a problem when he trusts an extremely unscrupulous person with his name, and that person later reveals his identity to the world, ruining his reputation and likely his life.]]
* OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent: Peter is still in school while acting as a superhero. He initially tells Stark he can't go to Germany because he has homework.
-->'''Tony:''' ...I'm gonna pretend you didn't say that.
* OutOfFocus: While Uncle Ben is indicated to be a crucial part of his motivation for becoming a superhero through various indirect elements hinting at his influence on Peter and May's lives, he's surprisingly not directly mentioned ''once'' by either of them in Peter's first six film appearances, although [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatResponsibility it's clear that he learned the crucial lesson that he was supposed to from what happened]]. [[spoiler:This approach is in part because May ''also'' fulfills this role in the MCU's version of the story, down to being the one who actually tells Peter the iconic words before dying.]] The first official confirmation on Uncle Ben's presence in the MCU actually came in ''WesternAnimation/WhatIf2021'', in an alternate timeline, with later mentions of Ben being from [[spoiler:Tobey and Andrew's Spider-Men.]]
* OutsideTheBoxTactic: Peter excels at this, mainly because he's an inexperienced teenager who constantly looks at things from a fresh perspective, and like any teenager, if there's an easy way to do something, he'll take it:
** ''Civil War'': When Ant-Man grows sixty feet tall and is giving Tony's people a lot of trouble, he takes a hint from ''The Empire Strikes Back'' and cuts his legs out from under him, which gives the rest of Tony's team the opening they need to take him out of the fight.
** ''Infinity War'': Against Ebony Maw, when Tony and Stephen are trying to plan a direct assault, Peter comes up with the idea to simply punch a hole through the spaceship and let Ebony Maw get sucked outside. The idea ''works'', and Ebony Maw is killed pretty quickly. Unlike his comic book counterpart, this Spider-Man has no problem with that, mainly because he understands how desperate their situation will become if Thanos gets his hands on all the Infinity Stones.
** ''No Way Home'': While fighting Doctor Strange in the Mirror Dimension, Peter gets the upper hand when he realizes that the patterns follow certain geometric rules, [[spoiler:which allows him to web up his much more powerful opponent and win the fight using the power of math]].
* PassingTheTorch: ''Far From Home'' directly sets Spider-Man up as being the successor to Iron Man as the most central and important heroic figure on Earth, and (less directly) the next Captain America as the virtuous [[TheHeart Heart]] of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The movie ends with Spidey officially stepping up as one of Earth's Mightiest Heroes, and he even [[spoiler:has his own "I am Iron Man" moment... albeit, without his consent.]]
* PhraseCatcher: Before he saves an elevator full of people at the Washington Monument, he's primarily known as Spider-Man "from [=YouTube=]."
* PintSizedPowerhouse: He's physically the smallest hero during the Avengers Civil War (if you don’t count Rhodey, who's a centimetre shorter without his PoweredArmor and Natasha and Wanda), but has the most raw strength of anyone on the battlefield. This is further proven when he went toe-to-toe with every anti-registration hero in a physical fight (though his inexperience ''does'' show in one-on-one fights, as Cap demonstrated). It takes a solid hit from Giant-Man to knock him out. Peter is also notably one of the few MCU male superheroes to be ''visibly'' shorter than the leading ladies, and that includes both his love interests (namely Liz and MJ).
* PleaseWakeUp:
** In ''Endgame'', he doesn't immediately catch on that using the Infinity Gauntlet has drained the life out of Tony Stark. It also marks the first and only time he calls Tony by his first name instead of "Mr. Stark".
** And again towards Mysterio in ''Far from Home'', although he doesn't die.
** [[spoiler:He does this after Aunt May dies in ''No Way Home''.]]
* PluckyComicRelief: Since he has little investment in the Civil War between the Avengers, he plays a more lighthearted, comedic role than the other characters involved in the fight.
* PopCulturalOsmosisFailure: For all his love of movies that are decades older than he is, he confuses Music/{{ACDC}} with Music/LedZeppelin when he hears "Back in Black".
* PopCulturedBadass: He's seen a lot of popular movies, even ones from before he was born, and uses his knowledge of them to come up with plans to defeat his foes that always work.
* PrecisionFStrike:
** When Ant-Man enlarges into Giant-Man, Spider-Man vocalizes what the audience is thinking:
--->'''Spider-Man: '''HOLY '''SHIT'''!
** A more literal and dark example as [[spoiler:Mysterio's dying message publicly blows Peter Parker's secret identity wide open on Broadway's 42nd Street Megavision, ''and'' frames him as said conman's murderer.]] The eyes on Peter Parker's ''actual mask'' widen in stupefied disbelief.
--->'''Spider-Man:''' [[CurseCutShort WHAT THE FU-?!]]
* ProjectileWebbing: He can fire these through the use of a synthetic substance and a pair of wrist-worn mechanical devices he both developed.
* PunchCatch: Easily catches Bucky's metal arm and gently pulls it back while geeking out over how cool it is.
* PunchPunchPunchUhOh: [[spoiler:He seemingly manages to pin the Goblin against a wall in their first fight and pummels him, only for the Goblin to grin maniacally and slam him straight through a concrete floor.]] It's clear that, at best, Peter managed to momentarily catch him off-guard, and at worst, the [[spoiler:Goblin]] deliberately gave him a HopeSpot.
* RaceFetish: Coincidentally or not, both of Peter's crushes are black/black-ish. Liz is mixed while MJ's lineage is uncertain, but her actress is mixed as well.
* RageBreakingPoint: [[spoiler: After the Goblin murdered his Aunt May, Peter gave up on saving the villains and wanted Norman in particular dead. Raimi Peter manages to talk him down from the brink, but later on in the final battle, the Goblin deliberately interferes with his attempt to save MJ from a fatal drop, and if it hadn't been for Webb Peter, she would have died.]] At this point, all bets are off, and Peter does his absolute damndest to [[spoiler: [[CurbStompBattle mercilessly bloody and beat the Goblin within an inch of his life]], before trying to execute him with his own glider.]]
* TheRedeemer: [[spoiler:''No Way Home'' ends with him curing and redeeming all the villains with help from his counterparts, and this is actually a trait they share with him as they never voice any disagreements with this plan.]]
* RedIsHeroic: Red is his signature color. Given how, in the MCU, Peter sees Iron Man as a role model, it is possible that he designed his own suit to emulate Tony's.
* RefusalOfTheCall:
** Evidently averted, as in this continuity, he never seemed to have any problem with helping out other people with his powers. That being said, ''[[NoodleIncident something]]'' [[DeathByOriginStory clearly happened to Uncle Ben]] that caused him to take his job a lot more seriously, as evidenced by his conversation with Tony Stark in ''Civil War''.
** At the end of ''Homecoming'', he turns down Tony's offer to join the Avengers because he thinks he should stay grounded a little longer to look out for the little guy.
** ''Literally'' in ''Far From Home'' as he sends a call from Nick Fury himself to voicemail.
* RememberTheNewGuy: [[spoiler:From the view of characters from the ''Film/SonysSpiderManUniverse'' at least. Venom senses some familiarity with Spider-Man upon seeing him on TV when he and Eddie Brock are transported into the MCU during the mid-credits scene of ''Film/VenomLetThereBeCarnage''. This is because Venom most likely "remembers" Spider-Man being Peter Parker when he accessed the symbiote's Hive Mind that spans across the Multiverse, including his counterpart from the Raimi-Verse]].
* RookieRedRanger: Despite being the youngest and least experienced of [[spoiler:the three Spider-Men who appear in ''No Way Home'', he calls the shots during the battle at the Statue of Liberty. It's {{Justified|Trope}} because he's the only one who has any experience fighting as part of a team, whereas the other two have always [[IWorkAlone worked alone]]; after all, he was an Avenger, whereas the Avengers don't even exist in their home universes]].
* SacrificialLion: Not counting Maria Hill and Nick Fury's demises in the post-credits scene, Peter is the last major character to die by Thanos's fingersnap, and by far the most iconic character to be killed off in ''Avengers: Infinity War''. He gets better.
* SaveTheVillain:
** He rescues Adrian Toomes from his malfunctioning wings in ''Homecoming''.
** In ''No Way Home'', after learning all the universe-displaced villains are fated to die fighting their worlds' Spider-Men, he attempts to return them to their human selves so they won't have to suffer that fate. [[spoiler:He ultimately succeeds, though he initially attempts to kill the Green Goblin for the murder of Aunt May]].
* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: GenderInverted. He serves as the BadassAdorable AllLovingHero Energetic Guy to Michelle's DeadpanSnarker {{Bookworm}} Savvy Girl.
* SecretIdentity: One of the few characters in the setting to have one and actively maintain it. He turns his web shooters on Tony in his own bedroom when the possibility of Tony outing him comes up. He has a bad habit of accidentally letting people close to him know his secret, as both Ned and Aunt May learn the truth [[FailedASpotCheck because he wasn't mindful of his Spider-Sense]]. [[spoiler:Mysterio ends up revealing it to the world.]]
* SecretIdentityIdentity: In ''No Way Home'', Doctor Strange criticizes Peter for trying to keep two different lives rather than sacrificing one over the other. The rest of the film has Peter conflicted over whether he should focus on his own private life or help others in need despite the possibility they may further jeopardize his life as Peter Parker. [[spoiler:In the end, he sacrifices the very memory of Peter Parker to save the world, essentially erasing his civilian identity from existence, leaving only Spider-Man behind]].
* SecretKeeper: In ''Spider-Man: Far From Home'', [[spoiler:he lies about Captain America’s survival to allow the elderly Steve Rogers to retire, knowing that he was alive and present at Tony Stark's funeral.]]
* SecretTestOfCharacter: Assumes this at the end of ''Homecoming'' when Tony presents him with a seat on the Avengers and a brand new upgraded suit, saying a room full of reporters are in the other room waiting for the Spider-Man announcement. Peter, who just went through a HumiliationConga of learning what it means to be Spider-Man in his massively inexperienced state, politely declines while claiming this trope, opting to instead "stay on the ground" like Tony wanted him to do all along. Tony for his part [[SureLetsGoWithThat rolls with it.]] Then Peter leaves, and Pepper walks in from the reporter-filled room to ask where he was, showing Tony was absolutely serious and ''totally botched a legitimate recruitment attempt''.
* SensoryOverload: His Spider-Sense [[BlessedWithSuck is a bit of a problem in this version]]. While he does have a greater sense of awareness that allows him to have better reflexes, it comes at the cost of being overwhelmed with the awareness of ''everything'' around him during battle. His first costume incorporates welding goggles (which Tony is shocked he can even see out of since he himself couldn't) because they minimize visual stimuli to a level where he can focus. His new suit incorporates mechanical irises so that he can adjust how much he sees as needed.
* ShooOutTheClowns: After the big fight at the airport in ''Civil War'', Tony tells him to go back home for his own safety and even threatens to tell Aunt May if he doesn't. This itself happens before the dramatic final act. It's {{justified|Trope}} given how nearly fatal the battle went in the case of Rhodey.
* SingleGuySeeksMostPopularGirl: Liz Allan is a senior involved with many clubs and is much sought after, and also the object of Peter's affection in ''Homecoming''.
* SirNotAppearingInThisTrailer: In ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'', due to contractual issues between Marvel Studios and Sony:
** He's completely absent from the trailer and was even edited out of several shots such as the scene of two sides running at each other. He is in that scene in the film proper.
** The poster designed for use in theaters and concession products has all of the heroes but Spider-Man and Ant-Man.
** He was absent from pretty much all of the other promotional material for the film, which includes toy lines and promotional images and even the official home releases' covers.
* SkilledButNaive:
** He's really good when it comes to making [[IndyPloy improvised plans]] to beat seemingly unbeatable foes, but his lack of experience still hampers him. Best shown when he, Tony, and Rhodey defeat Giant-Man; Peter comes up with the plan to web up Scott's legs and flawlessly sets him up to be knocked down by Tony and Rhodey, but he fails to notice the falling Scott's flailing limbs and thus gets knocked out by one of them.
** He's also as befitting an innocent kid, extremely trusting of everyone he meets. He went to Germany on Tony's request without question, taking his non-explanation at face value. He's also incredibly careless with his secret identity, revealing it to his closest friends and the entire superhero community. In ''Film/SpiderManFarFromHome'', both tendencies [[spoiler:get exploited by Mysterio who uses his tendency to trust heroes to fool him into handing over E.D.I.T.H. and his carelessness with his identity gets it revealed to the entire world.]]
** In ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome'', after learning that some of the villains brought from the Multiverse are fated to die if they are returned as they are, [[spoiler:Peter ends up defying Doctor Strange's attempt to send them back and opts to find a way to cure the villains to potentially change their fates for the better once they return to their own universes (which he ''does'' have the ability to pull off, as shown when he successfully freed Otto of his tentacles' control). This proves to have dire consequences when some villains like Green Goblin, the Lizard, and Electro don't ''want'' to be saved and go rogue to cause further destruction, which directly leads to Aunt May's death and Peter Parker being erased from the memories of everyone he knows.]]
* SlasherSmile: Peter [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness of all people]] flashes one when [[spoiler:he stuffs one of Green Goblin's Pumpkin Bombs in his glider in revenge for Goblin stopping him from saving MJ]].
* SmartPeoplePlayChess: There's a chess set set up (and seemingly in progress) on a table in his bedroom in ''Civil War''.
* SociallyAwkwardHero: True to form, he's a shy kid who doesn't have a very large social circle and struggles with trying to fit in and impress the girl he has a crush on.
* SorryThatImDying: In ''Infinity War'', his dying words to Tony Stark are "I'm sorry".
* SpiderLimbs: The Iron Spider suit has these. They're mostly used for support rather than for actual combat in ''Infinity War'', but in ''Endgame'' they're shown to be utterly deadly when the armor is in "Instant Kill Mode", skewering Thanos's monstrous soldiers.
* SpiderSense:
** Appears briefly, catching a web cylinder Tony threw at him without even glancing at him, sensing a piece of debris Bucky throws at him from behind without looking, then tossing it right back at Bucky, and just before Ant-Man attacks him to take back the Cap's shield, he can tell something's wrong. It doesn't work nearly as much as it should, and Spidey is surprised several times during his fights. Potentially justified as he notes that his abilities make it difficult to focus at times, which is why he needed the goggles, and he's still not used to the new suit.
** As in the source material, it primarily warns him of ''threats'' or people ''intending'' to harm him -- not, say, his best friend Ned Leeds being in his room, or Aunt May seeing him suit up nearby. [[Film/SpiderManFarFromHome Peter cannot even sense Nick Fury's presence in his room until Ned was hit with a tranquilizer dart. This makes sense as Nick has no intention of harming him, only wanting to talk.]]
** The trailer for ''Infinity War'' shows Peter riding a bus when his hairs suddenly stand on end. Cue the sinister-looking spaceship hovering over New York.
** A very dark example appears in ''Infinity War''. Unlike the other dusted heroes, Peter can sense that something very bad is about to happen to him, even telling Tony that he doesn't feel so good and becomes utterly ''terrified'' when he realizes what that sick feeling actually means.
** A recurring element in ''Far From Home'' is the somewhat finicky nature of this ability, which Aunt May has dubbed "the Peter tingle". As she observes, he can dodge bullets, but not a banana she playfully tosses at him. [[spoiler:By the movie's climax, Peter has a solid enough grip on it to recognize Mysterio's illusions for what they are.]]
** ''No Way Home'' features it from his perspective. While working on a MacGuffin in Happy's apartment, his world gets hazy and he begins to hear a hum that increases the closer he is to danger, as he looks to make sure May is safe. [[spoiler:Finally, he turns around and webs Osborn, whom his Goblin personality has taken over.]]
* StrongAndSkilled: By ''Far From Home'', Spidey has become a legitimate OneManArmy who can take on countless drones, see through illusions through his SpiderSense, and take on threats that would've decimated him before, all by himself. Really, ''Far From Home'' tells his journey from being an inexperienced hero to a true successor to Iron Man.
* StockShonenHero: Most Spideys fall under this trope, but this one pretty much fits it to a T. He has a very clear sense of [[BlackAndWhiteMorality justice]], [[IdealHero moral integrity]], unwavering [[TheDeterminator true-grit]], and is [[FunPersonified fun-loving]]. While he's not exactly dumb, he has a problem with jumping to conclusions, putting too much faith in people, and [[DidntThinkThisThrough not looking before he leaps]]. However, he makes up for whatever short-comings he faces with an [[TheGift incredible aptitude]] for improvisation and adaptability, and he's well on his way towards being the [[ToBeAMaster best superhero of his generation]].
* {{Superhero}}: The TropeCodifier for all teenage superheroes. A teenage rookie who is just learning the basics of the superhero work.
* SuperheroOrigin: The whole thing about power, responsibility, and indirectly causing his uncle's death through inaction still happened, but it happened offscreen, though it is indirectly referenced multiple times. Between ''Captain America: Civil War'' and ''Avengers: Endgame'', Ben Parker is not even mentioned by name. The filmmakers behind the franchise explained that, with [[Film/SpiderManTrilogy two prior]] [[Film/TheAmazingSpiderManSeries film continuities]] showing the origin, showing it for the third time in ''Spider-Man: Homecoming'' would be redundant. [[spoiler:''No Way Home'' reveals that his trilogy is a unique adaptation of his origin for the MCU, as while Ben does exist and serve some role in him being Spider-Man, Peter doesn't truly learn the lesson "with great power there must also come great responsibility" until May's death. With people's memory of Peter Parker now erased, he loses the allies he had and his advanced tech, forcing him back into the WorkingClassHero he is in the comics and having Jameson doing everything he can to make the city hate him.]]
* SuperLoser: Being Spider-Man does not prevent him from being a dweeby, rather unpopular teen at school.
* SuperReflexes: He's more than agile enough to avoid the gunfire of Mysterio's weaponized drones.
* SuperSpeed: While not a speedster like, say, Quicksilver, Peter can move around the battlefield beyond most Avengers' ability to keep up. In spite of only being a fifteen at the time of ''Civil War'', he's already able to outrun the Olympic-level Black Widow without much trouble.
* SuperStrength: Spider-Man is incredibly powerful in spite of his young age (rivaling Captain America and Bucky's abilities in most situations, but greatly exceeding them in moments of great distress, such as when he lifted the rubble of a collapsed building off of himself). As demonstrated in ''Captain America: Civil War'', he has stopped a 3000-pound car at a speed of 40 mph dead in its tracks by mere strength (which is what brought him to Iron Man's attention). He can easily catch one of the Winter Soldier's punches, and is more [[TheKnightsWhoSaySquee giddy]] about being punched with a metal arm than actually bothering to put effort into blocking it. In ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome'' when he ceases to hold back at all a single enraged punch from him is able to leave a huge dent in a gigantic metal shield he is standing on, the sound of the impact resounding as if something much larger than him had hit it.
* SuperToughness: Peter's resistance is fully superhuman.
** Already hinted in ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'', where he takes a ShieldBash to the face from Captain America, a blow that would have certainly concussed an ordinary human. He's also swatted aside by Giant-Man into a bunch of crates and survive with little more than a few superficial bruises.
** Becomes very obvious in ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'': The amount of punishment Spider-Man endures through the movie would easily kill an ordinary human, and even badly maim a SuperSoldier. Notably, he gets bounced up and down by an Anti-Gravity gun, dragged behind a van and repeatedly slammed against trashcans and brick walls, supports the full weight of two halves of a ferry for a few seconds without his arms tearing off, is slammed into -- and then through -- a bus by the Shocker, is buried under a whole warehouse crumbling into him, and then survives a plane crash followed by a thorough beating from the Vulture, without even having to go to the hospital afterward. The suit Tony provided Peter with also counts, as it takes all the same abuse and doesn't have so much as a scratch, or even any of its features disabled.
** In ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'', he's shown functioning at high altitudes with little in the way of protection, with only some difficulty. He also takes hits from Thanos himself and still stands, despite the Mad Titan beating up the Hulk himself (justified somewhat, given that he's wearing the Iron Spider armor). It's implied he was the last of the group on Titan to die because his body was simply so durable that the Snap took longer to work on him.
** Once again demonstrated in ''Film/SpiderManFarFromHome'': Spider-Man survives injuries and accidents, which while painful, is far above ordinary human capability and would be fatal to any human being, such as bonking his head multiple times against an iron bell or surviving the impact of a high speed rail at full speed. On both occasions, he's still conscious and not too worse for wear (admittedly passing out after getting to safety from the train impact) while recovering and healing quickly.
** In ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome'', a severe beating from the Green Goblin that sent him through multiple walls and stories of a building, repeatedly, leaves him with broken ribs but he's still able to escape the scene and is healed in time for the final battle.
* SurvivorGuilt: After the events of ''Endgame'', Peter is still grieving Tony's death as of ''Far From Home'', and while he wants to be the new hero the people needs, he's not sure if he can even live up to the legacy that Tony left behind.
* SurvivalMantra:
** Peter starts chanting to himself in order to lift the heavy debris he was buried under by Vulture.
--->'''Peter:''' Come on, Peter. Come on, Spider-Man! Come on, Spider-Man!
** A much darker example happens in ''Infinity War'', when Peter realizes that he’s crumbling to ash and, understandably, is [[MortalityPhobia absolutely terrified]].
--->'''Peter:''' I-I don't know what's happening. I don't wanna go. I don't wanna go. Mister Stark, please! Please, I don't wanna go! I don't wanna go... I'm sorry...
* SweetAndSourGrapes:
** His character arc in ''Homecoming''. After believing himself to be unworthy of superheroics without the Stark suit, Peter manages to successfully stop the Vulture with his original outfit, armed with nothing but his web-shooters, and learns that heroism comes from within. Then Tony Stark gives him back the suit he made for Spider-Man anyway.
** In ''Homecoming'', he learns the value of being a hero on a local level and that it might be in his best interest to not join the Avengers for a while. Then in ''Infinity War'', he gets caught up in the midst of an attack on New York -- which he plans to defend on a local level, but finds himself in an alien spacecraft. He's stoked when Tony dubs him an Avenger anyway.
* SwissArmySuperpower:
** [[AllWebbedUp Webbing]] is an extremely useful power that has countless applications. So far Spidey has used it to swing, incapacitate, snag objects or enemies, and trip others.
** Once Tony Stark got his hands on Peter's webbing the possibilities became almost literally endless, and packed his suit with ''576'' possible webbing combinations[[note]]That is, 24 on each hand, which is still plenty.[[/note]] including web-grenades, ricochet webs, spinner webs, super-long shot webs and much, ''much'' more.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:T-Y]]
* TacticalWithdrawal:
** In ''Civil War'', Tony forces this on Peter after he's injured fighting Giant-Man. Tony makes sure to say that this is not a "you screwed up", but that he's done his job, now it's time to head back home.
** Tony later attempts to invoke this on Peter in ''Infinity War'' by activating a parachute after ensuring that he's safe inside the Iron Spider suit. It doesn't work, as Peter is able to stick to the Q-Ship anyway.
* TagAlongKid:
** He's a teenager, while the other heroes are all full-grown adults (the youngest of them being Scarlet Witch, who is in her mid-20s; while Vision, although barely a year old chronologically, was never a "kid").
--->'''Rhodey:''' [[WhatTheHellHero Jesus, Tony, how old is this guy?]]\\
'''Tony:''' I don't know, I didn't carbon date him! He's on the young side!
** Also noticeable in ''Infinity War''. In the company of the much older and mature Iron Man and Doctor Strange on their journey to Titan, he basically defaults to being the youngster. Becomes even more pronounced when he fights alongside them as well as Star-Lord, Drax, Mantis and Nebula against Thanos, but is no less badass for it.
* TaughtByExperience: After getting utterly thrashed [[spoiler:by Green Goblin in their first fight, he fights more defensively in their second fight by dodging his attacks so that he doesn't get a chance to overpower him like he did last time.]]
* TechnicalPacifist: He does his very best not to punch or kick normal criminals since with his level of SuperStrength (which can stop a mechanized punch from an experienced killer cyborg, something that Black Panther actually struggled with), he'd probably maim them if he did. He starts throwing some punches and kicks during ''Infinity War'' against Thanos and his Children.
* TeenGenius: Peter at first doesn't quite match up to Tony Stark, Bruce Banner, or Shuri's genius, but at 15-years-old, without any previous exposure to a lab or engineering, he managed to create a formula for his webs (the sophistication of which impressed even ''Tony Stark)'' and make them ''in the middle of chemistry class'' with supplies scrounged from the dumpster and his high school chemistry lab. He also created his own mechanical web shooters, is a surprisingly capable tactician, and programs and builds computers with parts from the trash in his spare time. In addition to this, Peter seems to excel in physics and math, and he actively participates on the Decathlon team; and after only moments of battling Falcon in Germany, he correctly deduced that Sam's wings were made of carbon fiber due to their "flexibility-rigidity ratio". The finale of ''Far From Home'', where Peter builds his own [[MagnumOpus most advanced suit yet]] suggests that Peter ''does'' have what it takes to be compared to the above three, but his ability to cultivate said genius is ordinarily hampered [[WorkingClassHero by a lack of resources.]]
* TeensAreShort: He is a KidHero played by 5'6'-5'7 Creator/TomHolland and is a good bit shorter than the majority of his fellow heroes. Even Tony Stark is made to look several inches taller despite Creator/RobertDowneyJr and Tom being around the same height in real life. He never interacts with the other team mates who are actually shorter than or closer to his height (Creator/ScarlettJohansson, Creator/JeremyRenner, Creator/MarkRuffalo, Creator/ElizabethOlsen, Creator/LetitiaWright).
* TenorBoy: Peter never sings, but his speaking voice is very high-pitched and youthful (this helps Creator/TomHolland, who is OlderThanHeLooks, pass for a 15-year-old).
* ThouShallNotKill: Peter invokes this by refusing to go with any of the Instant-Kill protocols his suit provides him with. He also goes out of his way to save the Vulture's life, rather than allowing him to become a SelfDisposingVillain. However, he doesn't seem to have a problem with killing Ebony Maw, although [[GodzillaThreshold given the circumstances]], one can hardly blame him. He also doesn't mind using that same Instant-Kill mode against Thanos's forces (which, granted, are mindless killing machines) when he's resurrected in ''Endgame''. In ''No Way Home'', he comes close to breaking this rule after [[spoiler:the Green Goblin kills his Aunt May]], and it's only thanks to [[spoiler:the Raimi-Verse Peter's intervention]] that he doesn't go through with it.
* ThreePointLanding: His upgraded costume is introduced with him pulling one off. He thinks he could have done it a bit better.
* TokenMiniMoe: Bet you never thought you'd see this trope associated with him, but here he's the youngest superhero, and both his enthusiasm and fanboyishness make him endearing.
* TooGoodForThisSinfulEarth: Peter's sweet nature, moral integrity and kind heart was not enough for the Infinity Gauntlet to spare him from being painfully erased with a snap of Thanos's fingers for five years.
* TookALevelInBadass:
** By ''Infinity War'', Peter has gotten significantly more adept at using his powers and manages to hold his own against members of the Black Order, and even participates in the group battle against Thanos himself on Titan.
** By ''Far From Home'', Peter has unambiguously become more badass than in ''Homecoming''. Compare the final battle between him and Vulture in ''Homecoming'', where he ''loses'' the actual fight and only "wins" by accident, to the final battle between him and [[spoiler:Mysterio in ''Far From Home'', where Spidey takes down an ''army'' of drones by himself, becomes fully synergized with his SpiderSense, and manages to dodge gunfire while effectively ''blinded'' in terms of sight, before handily defeating him with a single punch and saving the lives of London.]] Really, this was officially marked the moment Spidey made his very own Upgraded suit to the tune of "[[Music/{{ACDC}} Back in Black]]" -- considered ''the'' song to highlight such moments.
** By ''No Way Home'', his fighting ability noticeably improves more as he's forced into more battles against superpowered opponents from across the multiverse who are much more physical and hands-on than the previous villain Mysterio and [[spoiler: towards the end, he fights and beats down the Green Goblin, a physically formidable foe who was able to give the Spider-Man of his own universe a run for his money]].
* TragicDropout: [[spoiler:Thanks to Peter Parker's existence being wiped from everyone's memories in ''No Way Home'''s climax, he's forced to drop out of high school despite being a gifted and intelligent student. He ends up studying for a GED on a lower middle-class budget while living alone in an empty apartment, but still continues being Spider-Man.]]
* TragicHero: Peter is a selfless and loving person who wants to save everyone, [[SaveTheVillain even the bad guys]], but he's constantly marred by misfortune and outright misery. Nowhere is this made clearer than in ''No Way Home'', [[spoiler:as by the end of it all, he's lost his beloved Aunt May, his allies, best friend and girlfriend have no memory of him, and he's forced to drop out of school and live alone in a small apartment. Yet he '''still''' soldiers on as Spider-Man to protect the innocent]].
* TragicKeepsake:
** Following Tony's passing after ''Endgame'', Peter's Stark and Iron Spider suits become this.
** A non-lethal version in ''No Way Home'', where he keeps [[spoiler:Ned's LEGO Palpatine minifigure and the mug MJ gave him to remember their friendship, as neither of them even remembers him existing.]]
* TranquilFury:
** Much like his mentor, Peter is usually constantly babbling and quipping even during fights. [[spoiler:During the final battle against Mysterio, however, he's utterly silent, showing just how angry and serious he is.]]
** Exaggerated in ''No Way Home''. [[spoiler:Before his fight with Green Goblin, Peter simply tells him straight-up that he wants to KILL him in a quiet voice that's laced with more venom than the spider that bit him. Cue the biggest NoHoldsBarredBeatdown he's ever given a villain to date.]]
* TraumaCongaLine:
** [[spoiler:''Far From Home'' becomes this for him. After coming back to life and losing Tony, Peter tries to move on by going on a school trip to Europe. Then he ends up having to go on a mission to save the world from the Elementals, and then he finds out that the hero that he worked with turned out to be a psychopath hell-bent on gaining fame and gets gaslighted by said psychopath. And when he finally defeats him, he ends up being framed for his murder and his identity is exposed. Needless to say, he isn't having a great year.]]
** [[spoiler:''No Way Home'' extends this, notably by starting immediately where ''Far From Home'' ends. To wit, Peter and his friends and family are hounded by the public and authorities, to the point where Peter goes to Dr. Strange to make everyone forget Peter Parker is Spider-Man. However, Peter's unwillingness to have May, MJ, and Ned forget as well causes a disaster that rips a hole in reality. While he's able to fix it, Aunt May is killed by the Green Goblin in the process and the spell ultimately makes everyone forget Peter Parker even ''existed'', including MJ, Ned, and the Avengers. Without any financial support, he's also forced to drop out of high school and get a GED. His trilogy ends with him having almost nothing but his new homemade suit and his unwavering determination to keep being Spider-Man.]]
* TruerToTheText:
** His Stark-made costume in ''Civil War'', ''Homecoming'', and the beginning of ''Infinity War'' is the closest we've yet to seen to Peter's old-school [[ComicBook/TheAmazingSpiderManLeeAndDitko Lee/Ditko look]] in live action. The webbing isn't raised and [[FreezeFrameBonus the spider on his back]] is fat and tick-like instead of a larger and scarier looking version of the chest-logo (as in the Raimi movies).
** This version is closer in profile to the early issues of the Lee/Ditko version as a fifteen-year-old kid just starting his superhero career, as well as the ''ComicBook/UltimateSpiderMan'' comics, which also borrows his YoungerAndHipper Aunt May and the fact that his identity is traced by Iron Man. Lee/Ditko's Spider-Man was pretty good at keeping his identity hidden whereas the RunningGag of Ultimate Spidey is the small number of people who ''don't'' know his secret identity. Also the most MotorMouth version of Spidey seen thus far in live-action.
** Peter is shown brewing the formula for his web shooters in ''Homecoming'', unlike his predecessors.[[note]]The Tobey Maguire version famously had organic webbing, and while the Andrew Garfield version did use web shooters, it is explicitly shown in ''The Amazing Spider Man'' that they use bio-cable purchased from Oscorp, as opposed to a formula Peter developed himself.[[/note]]
** By the end of ''No Way Home'', Peter is closer to the scrappy loner WorkingClassHero he traditionally is thanks to [[spoiler:Aunt May's death and the world forgetting Peter Parker ever existed, cutting off all ties with Stark Industries and the Avengers]]. He even fashions a low-tech red and blue suit with a normal sewing machine.
* TwoFirstNames: '''Peter Benjamin Parker''' so it's three to be exact.
* {{Unperson}}: In ''No Way Home'', [[spoiler:Peter ends up solving the CosmicFlaw he created by having Doctor Strange make the entire world completely forget Peter Parker. Although Spider-Man remains well-known, Peter effectively never existed, costing him his personal life and all his friends, allies, and loved ones]].
* UnresolvedSexualTension:
** There is sexual tension between Peter and MJ in his hotel room in Prague when he realizes he has taken his shirt off with her in the room. Peter asks her to turn around, but MJ can't help but get some peeks. She continues to watch him change until she notices Ned has entered the room.
** [[spoiler: Inverted and PlayedForLaughs in ''Spider-Man: No Way Home'', where Peter and MJ are in his room and she is helping him take off his suit in a panic after his identity was just exposed. Aunt May walks in on MJ undressing Peter and thinks they are having sex. Peter then tries explaining to his aunt this isn't true, but she doesn't believe him.]]
* UnskilledButStrong: His agility, strength, speed, and secondary abilities give him an advantage in most of the encounters he faces, but he's still a teenager with no formal combat training. Anytime an opponent unveils something (technology, ability to fly, element of surprise, tactical fighting, etc) that counters Spidey's strength/agility, he has to struggle to come up with a way to defeat his opponent and often fails. This is the key reason Captain America and Falcon are able to defeat him. He gets over this disadvantage by the end of ''Far From Home''.
* UnwittingPawn: [[spoiler:To Quentin Beck in ''Far From Home'', who just wanted to earn Peter's trust to get access to E.D.I.T.H. and use the system for an EngineeredHeroics scheme.]]
* UseTheirOwnWeaponAgainstThem: He tries to [[spoiler:kill Green Goblin with his own glider in the final battle but is stopped by Raimi-verse Peter because he knows that if he murders the Green Goblin, he will also murder Norman Osborn doesn't deserve to die, and because killing Green Goblin will send him down a dark path.]]
* UtilityBelt: Spider-Man wears one in ''Captain America: Civil War'' for the first time in the character's cinematic history.[[note]]Not counting the movies based on ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' show from the '70s, which were intended for television.[[/note]]
* WallCrawl: As the TropeCodifier, he's able to stick to walls by simply touching them, allowing him to subsequently crawl around on them. Tony assumes at first that he accomplished it with adhesive gloves.
* WeakButSkilled: Only relative to powerhouses like Ant-Man/Giant-Man and Doctor Strange. Peter is way out of their league in raw power, but he makes up for it in smarts and strategy and is able to beat his much more powerful enemies. [[spoiler:In ''No Way Home'', he managed to defeat Doctor Strange while he was in the ''Mirror Dimension'' by harnessing geometry to strategically place his webs to ''trap'' Strange. He was stuck there for 12 hours.]]
* WellDoneSonGuy: Considering that Tony Stark is Peter's mentor/benefactor in the MCU, the fact that Peter wants to prove to Tony that he's ready to join the Avengers can be seen as seeking approval from a parental figure. Tony is apprehensive because he's extremely worried about putting him in danger but also doesn't want to be like his own father (who put Tony through this as well).
* WiseBeyondTheirYears: Zig-zagged. Peter shows a great deal of maturity about this powers, with the beginnings of ComesGreatResponsibility, refusing to use his powers for personal gain and knowing that he should hold back against bullies and criminals. He often makes good points when speaking to Tony Stark in particular. That being said he have childish desires - [[WellDoneSonGuy wanting Tony's approval]] and ignoring a crisis so he can ask MJ out - albeit after having been fooled into believing a more competent hero is handling it. He's also incredibly naïve and trusting as his idealism and optimism hasn't been tested or broken yet. Peter comes across as wise and mature but nevertheless has some growing up to do.
* WorkingClassHero: Zig-Zagged; Peter himself is definitely a working-class citizen and is introduced fighting crime on limited resources, but from his introduction onwards The Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. hook him up with improved gear, taking away a lot of the trappings of this trope. [[DeconReconSwitch Nonetheless]], Peter spends most of his time fighting small-time crime close to home. He later cements himself as this by the end of ''No Way Home'' [[spoiler:where he's living alone in an empty apartment with no financial support from anyone else.]]
* WorthyOpponent: He gains the respect of Captain America, both for his city (actually borough) of origin, and also for putting up such a good fight despite his inexperience. Adrian Toomes/Vulture seems to hold him in a similar regard, going by his refusal to out Peter's identity despite being arrested thanks to Spider-Man's efforts.
* WrongGenreSavvy: His vast knowledge of sci-fi movies leads to him incorrectly assuming that Mantis is a creature like [[Film/{{Alien}} the Xenomorph]] and begs her not to lay her eggs in him.
* YouAreNotReady: Tony Stark tells him this almost word-for-word when he asks about trying out for the Avengers. The roles are switched by the end of the movie; Tony has come to agree that Peter's skills would be a valuable asset to the team, but Peter endured a major reality check over the course of his conflict with the Vulture, needing time to come to grips with the risks involved in superheroics.
* WrestlerInAllOfUs: Peter's hand-to-hand combat style is a mix of this and GoodOldFisticuffs.
* YouFightLikeACow:
** Averted in ''Civil War'' because he's fighting older heroes and is too busy geeking out about how awesome they are.
** Played straight in ''Homecoming'' such as making fun of a gang of ATM thieves for wearing toy Avenger masks while beating them up.
* YouKilledMyFather: [[spoiler:Peter wants to kill the Green Goblin for the murder of Aunt May, only to be stopped by Raimi-Verse Peter to show that he is better than this.]]
* YoungAndInCharge: In the final battle of ''No Way Home'', [[spoiler:he becomes the "leader" of the three Spider-Men despite being the youngest of them because he's the only one of the three who has experience at working in a team due to his association with the Avengers]].
* YoungerAndHipper: Peter Parker is 15-years-old (while his actor is 19) when he debuts in ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'', making him the youngest cinematic Spider-Man ever. It also makes him the same age he was when Spider-Man debuted in ''Amazing Fantasy'' #15.
* YoungestChildWins: ZigZagged in terms of [[spoiler:the three cinematic Spider-Men being analogues to brothers during ''No Way Home''. On one hand, Peter lives in a world where there are plenty of superheroes, has the most advanced suit(s) and equipment(s), and on a meta sense has the films that made more money and the most film appearances in general than the two. On the other, he ultimately ended up losing everything for the greater good-- on his friends' case, [[HeroicSacrifice willingly]]. The most obvious is losing his Aunt May, who was Peter's remaining family in most media adaptations. Case in point, the two other Peters were with their Aunt May during their respective film's GraveMarkingScene to give them emotional support (For Raimi-verse during Harry's, for Webb-verse during Gwen's). This Peter's GraveMarkingScene is for Aunt May herself.]]

->''"If you're nothing without this suit, then you shouldn't have it."''
-->-- '''Tony Stark / Iron Man'''
----
* ChestInsignia: A black spider, of course. The Iron Spider suit added gold accents.
* ClothesMakeTheSuperman: {{Downplayed}}. Spider-Man is still strong, fast, agile, and has his Spidey Sense and Wall-crawling, but the suits come with all sorts of extra gadgets to them, starting with the webshooters, to round out the set.
* ExpressiveMask: Not quite the same way as Film/{{Deadpool|2016}}, but the eyes of his mask widen and narrow in response to Peter's behavior. Even the goggles in his Homemade suit are expressive.
* GodzillaThreshold: Instant Kill mode is only used in emergencies, which Peter finally activates in the FinalBattle in ''Film/AvengersEndgame'' when he gets swarmed by Thanos's forces.
* MovieSuperheroesWearBlack: Downplayed; his Spider-Man suit has a few solid black lines running through it and the "Instant Kill Mode" turns the eyepieces black, but the bright red and blue colors remain. The trope is later invoked when Tony offers a new suit with a huge black spider stretched across the torso, but Peter turns it down.
* MythologyGag: Peter's costume has a few subtle shout-outs to various incarnations of the Spider-Man costume over the past 50+ years. The eyes are in the standard John Romita, Sr. sized eyes yet can squint into Creator/SteveDitko-types. The spider insignia resembles that of Todd [=McFarlane=]'s version. His physique, soft colors, and subtle-yet-distinct redesigns also invoke Alex Ross' artwork. Interestingly, he has his web-shooters outside his costume, something Ben Reilly, the ComicBook/ScarletSpider, and May "Mayday" Parker, ComicBook/SpiderGirl, did.
* PowerLimiter: Peter mentions to Tony that the reason his homemade suit has partially blacked-out goggles is because his SuperSenses make it hard for him to focus, and restricting his field of vision counteracts that. His Stark-tech suits feature expanding and contracting eyes, allowing him more control over this power.
* PrimaryColorChampion: Both his homemade costume and the Stark upgrade suit are largely red and blue. The Iron Spider suit adds yellow / gold into the mix, making it a more complete example than Steve ''or'' Tony's suits.

Spidey's first suit, cobbled together on a shoestring budget.
----
* AscendedExtra: Originally it was only seen in Website/YouTube footage that Tony Stark pulled up online, and was replaced by the time Spidey got into action under Stark. In ''Homecoming'', he's forced to don his original suit to stop the Vulture after Stark took the Tech suit away from him.
* BetaOutfit: It's a cheap outfit made by a broke teenager, and has none of the advancements of Stark's suits.
* BreakOutTheMuseumPiece: Like his two [[Film/IronMan1 biggest]] [[Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier heroes]], he winds up having to use an inferior version of his superhero gear when his more advanced equipment is unavailable to him during the climax of ''Homecoming''.
* TheCameo: [[spoiler:Appears briefly in ''Far From Home'' in a sequence where Mysterio torments Peter with his illusions.]]
* CheapCostume: Literally a pair of sweatpants, a sweatshirt with a spider drawn on the front, and a pair of welding goggles under a ski mask.
* CostumeEvolution: The glimpse of it in ''Civil War'' had the goggles' strap visible over the mask. ''Homecoming'' has them under.
* GogglesDoSomethingUnusual: It's a welding goggles remodeled with scope mechanisms and having to function as ExpressiveMask.
* MythologyGag: The suit heavily resembles the costume of Ben Reilly, the ComicBook/ScarletSpider.

!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'' | ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'' | ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'' | ''Film/SpiderManFarFromHome'' | ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome'' [[note]]On a F.E.A.S.T. sign[[/note]]

An advanced combat suit developed by Tony Stark as an upgrade for the young hero, to ensure he could keep up during the events of ''Civil War''.
----
* AwesomeButImpractical: His Stark-made suit is incredibly advanced and has a number of gadgets, but due to Peter's unfamiliarity with the interface, this comes across as a hindrance in ''Homecoming'' as many times as it's actually helpful.
* BadassBaritone: His Stark suit has an "interrogation mode" that artificially deepens his voice. Unfortunately, it doesn't really work if the "victim" already knows his real voice.
* CrazyPrepared: Tony put a lot of stuff into this suit, which is even more impressive than his Iron Man suits considering this isn't really armour. While he locked most of them to keep Peter from being overwhelmed, it's shown to include a parachute, a full-body heater, minature gliding flaps, an in-built A.I., recon drone, voice-changing, dozens of webbing types such as bouncing and electric webs, and presumably much more.
-->'''Tony:''' I put ''everything'' in your suit.
* ForgottenPhlebotinum: {{Invoked|Trope}} when Peter is packing for his school trip, leaving it behind so he can [[IJustWantToBeNormal just have a normal trip]]. [[SubvertedTrope Aunt May packs it for him]] without telling him. [[DoubleSubverted He still leaves it at the hotel]], so he's forced to fight Hydro-Man with just his default-setting web-shooters and a jester's mask for anonymity's sake.
* PowerLimiter: Most of the more advanced features, like the AI and recon drone, were locked by a "Training Wheels Protocol" until Tony felt Peter was ready for them. Peter, sick of being treated like a kid, hacks the system and removes the protocol... which bites him in the ass when he can't figure out how most of the new features work.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: The lenses on his mask glow red when he activates Instant Kill Mode.
* ShockAndAwe: One of the types of webbing available is electrified taser webbing.
* SuperToughness: Peter can be slammed through brick walls, dragged across concrete at high speeds, and this suit won't take any noticable damage from it (though Peter can still feel it).
* UncertainDoom: Peter's loss of the integrated suit at the end of ''No Way Home'' forces him to make a new costume, with no mention made of what happened to this one. While not directly stated, it was last seen packed inside Peter's luggage in ''Far From Home'' which was contained in the bus Peter's schoolmates and teachers were riding that got destroyed in the climax.
* UtilityBelt: It has one that stores web cartridges.

!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'' | ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'' | ''Film/AvengersEndgame'' | ''Film/SpiderManFarFromHome'' | ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome''
A second Stark suit, intended as a "Welcome to the Avengers" gift. Tony kept it after Spidey turned down his initial offer to join the team, but eventually gave it to him in ''Infinity War.''
----
* ArmorOfInvincibility: Granted it's Peter's only armor but it's still made out of the same {{Nanomachines}} Tony uses in his later armors, meaning it's his most durable.
* ClothingDamage: During ''No Way Home'' the chest area is heavily damaged when Doc Ock rips out a chunk of the nanobots. When the nanobots merge with Doc Ock's tentacles it turns out the Iron Spider suit can control them wirelessly, a feature Peter uses to contain the uncooperative Octavius.
* CollapsibleHelmet: The suit being made of nanomachines, the mask part can flow back and reform almost instantly whenever Peter wants to, revealing his face.
* CompositeCharacter: His Iron Spider suit takes influence from the Iron Spider in the ''ComicBook/CivilWar'' storyline, as well as [[https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1505598417l/26030947.jpg the high-tech suit Peter wore]] during [[ComicBook/TheAmazingSpiderManDanSlott Dan Slott's]] "Parker Industries" arc. Additionally, the large spider symbol is patterned off Ben Reilly's Spider-Man costume, which was later Spider-Girl's costume in [=MC2=] verse.
* CostumeEvolution: In ''Far From Home'' this suit has more prominent gold detailing on the shoulders and bulkier gold gauntlets.
* HoldingBackThePhlebotinum: In ''Far From Home'', it's shown to be normally kept as a swirling mass of nanomachines in a large steel case, and is left in New York for the events of the movie. By the time of ''No Way Home'', this appears to be a non-issue, as Peter is shown to store it in a compartment on his belt before the bridge fight with Doc Ock.
* InstantArmor: Peter can immediately materialize and de-materialize the entire suit at will, which is very useful because when it comes to his other suits he has the hassle of having to strip down to his underwear just to put them on and unlike the Panther Habit worn by T'Challa and Killmonger, it doesn't rip apart whatever he's wearing and the clothes merely compress inside the suit. [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome The compression still leaves said clothes incredibly wrinkled though.]]
* {{Nanomachines}}: What it's composed of, which is why it’s metallic in appearance.
* SpiderLimbs: They're mostly used for support rather than for actual combat in ''Infinity War'', but in ''Endgame'' they're shown to be utterly deadly when the armor is in "Instant Kill Mode", skewering Thanos's monstrous soldiers.
* {{Technopath}}: The {{Nanomachines}} were able to invade Doctor Octopus' tentacles, letting Peter control them, mainly by just stopping Doc Ock from using them himself.
* TookALevelInBadass: This suit amps up Spider-Man's physical attributes to even greater levels, giving him even more strength and durability (and limbs), which is needed in this much more intense physical battle against Thanos's minions than he's usually used to.
* UncertainDoom: [[spoiler:The remaining chunk of the nanomachines comprising the suit is last seen stored in a compartment in Happy's apartment before the first battle with Green Goblin. Doc Ock did manage to return to Peter the chunk used to bind him before the battle which turns his Upgraded suit into the Integrated version, but the rest was likely destroyed when Green Goblin bombed Happy's condo. And even if it wasn't, the fact that [[{{Unperson}} all of Peter's data disappeared (along with people's memories of him)]] means he wouldn't be able to use it anymore anyway.]]
* WreckedWeapon: [[spoiler:Doc Ock rips out a good chunk of the nanomachines comprising the suit during his first encounter with Peter, leading him to use the Upgraded/Gold/Integrated suit(s) for the rest of ''No Way Home''.]]

!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Film/SpiderManFarFromHome''
A covert-ops suit designed by S.H.I.E.L.D. both for practical purposes and to help protect Peter's anonymity.
----
* AtrociousAlias: Ned, a BadLiar on par with Peter himself, dubs the suit "Night Monkey" when Betty asks what the mysterious spider-like hero's name is. Footage of Betty and Ned calling for "Night Monkey" to help them makes it on the news and the name sticks.
* ConspicuousGloves: Fingerless gloves, which are odd given that Spidey normally has no skin showing at all.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Sure, the suit is colored black, but it is worn by one of the good guys.
* MovieSuperheroesWearBlack: Played entirely straight, and justified with this being a covert-ops suit.
* MythologyGag: The suit heavily resembles ComicBook/SpiderManNoir.
* SecondSuperIdentity: The intent behind the suit. Peter told S.H.I.E.L.D. that he couldn't help them because if his classmates keep noticing that he goes missing right before Spider-Man shows up, they'll find out his identity. So, they design an alternate costume for him, Ned's explanation for the obvious similarities being that he's [[ShoddyKnockoffProduct a European knockoff]] of the American Spider-Man named [[AtrociousAlias "Night Monkey"]].
* SpiderManSendUp: To protect his identity, Ned said the black-suited Spider-Man is an InUniverse Spider-Man rip off called Night Monkey.
* WeHardlyKnewYe: Peter only wore it during ''Far From Home'''s second act and soon abandons it during his detainment in the Netherlands.

The fifth suit, and the first high-tech suit of Peter's own creation.
----
* EleventhHourSuperpower: The suit isn't made until the final act of ''Far From Home'', specifically for [[spoiler:battling Mysterio]].
* ClothingDamage:
** The suit takes extensive damage during the final battle of ''Far From Home''. Most notably, the entire back of the costume is partially melted after being set on fire.
** In a less extreme example, a Mysterio supporter throws green paint on this suit early in ''No Way Home''. As Peter can't wash it out by himself he resorts to turning it inside-out to create the "Gold" suit as a temporary substitute. Once Aunt May cleans the suit for him he switches it back to the correct way around.
* CostumeEvolution:
** A natural evolution of the Stark suit, featuring more [[MovieSuperheroesWearBlack black]], integrated web-shooters, and other nifty gadgets.
** An odd example occurs where the ''same suit'' evolves. In ''No Way Home'', the suit is slightly altered, with a simplified and noticeably pointier belt area.
** The suit evolves again into [[spoiler:the Integrated suit halfway through ''No Way Home'' when Peter fixes Doc Ock's inhibitor chip and Ock subsequently returns the Iron Spider nanomachines to Peter, transplanting them onto this suit.]]
* MagnumOpus: Held in regards to Peter. Beforehand, he had to rely on others, specifically Stark, to give him fancy suits, and the only suit he made was the [[BetaOutfit homemade costume]]. This one, however, is entirely of Peter's own creation and his proudest accomplishment. It features integrated webshooters, web wings, a parachute, electric webbing, is fully-synergized with his abilities, and Spidey has complete control of all of it, all while the suit enhances his already impressive strength and durability, making it perhaps the best complement to his power.
* MovieSuperheroesWearBlack: Black replaces blue on this costume.
* MythologyGag: Utilizes the red and black color scheme as shown on the cover of ''ComicBook/AmazingFantasyNumberFifteen''. Moreover, the color pattern, especially that of the sleeves and gloves, is similar to that of [[Characters/MarvelComicsScarletSpider Ben Reilly's]] suit.
* NotQuiteFlight: This suit can make Web Wings, made for gliding through the air. They were briefly part of his first Stark suit, but they have much more use as part of this one.
* ShockAndAwe: He boosts the power output of his taser webs when creating this suit. [[spoiler:He uses this to take out the Elemental from inside, specifically by webbing all the drones before electrocuting them.]]
* SuperToughness: This suit ramps up Spidey's already strong durability. For one, it {{No Sell}}s being on ''fire''.

----
* {{Magitek}}: He gains a magically-modified TeleportGun webshooter made up of the nanomachines from his Iron Spider suit, courtesy of Doctor Strange.
* MovieSuperheroesWearBlack: This suit bears a striking resemblance to Raimi-Verse Spider-Man's Symbiote suit from ''Film/SpiderMan3'', with gold highlights instead of gray.
* TeleportGun: Dr. Strange gives him a modified web-shooter that teleports anyone he shoots with it to a cell in Strange's basement.

!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome''

The eighth suit and second Homemade costume, which Peter puts together after the Multiversal crisis is restored. It seems to just be a regular cloth costume, with a design inspired by his two older variants.
----
* AdaptationalLateAppearance: This is ''the'' primary Spider-Man costume in the comics and most media. Here it debuted when Peter is already years into his superhero career and is preceded by adaptations of Spidey's other costumes.
* CostumeEvolution: It's Peter's second homemade costume, and it doesn't look like a CheapCostume like his other one thanks to Peter honing his tailoring skills despite being on the same shoestring budget as before. It also doesn't appear to have any gadgets similar to the ones Tony Stark put on his other costumes.
* IconicOutfit: ''The'' classic Spider-Man costume.
* InternalHomage: Peter seemingly models it after the costumes of his Raimi-Verse and Webb-Verse counterparts, which in effect makes it a perfect recreation of the classic costume. The credits sequence involving Peter's sketches in a notebook lends credence to this idea.
* MovieSuperheroesWearBlack: While the MCU Spider-Man has never fully fallen victim to this, he spends most of ''No Way Home'' in the Upgraded suit, which replaces Spider-Man's usual blue with black - this suit thus contrasts not only that but also every ''previous'' live-action Spider-Man costume with an incredibly vibrant shade of blue.
* TruerToTheText: The most comic-accurate design out of any of his appearances, ditching the "arm arrows" of several of his previous designs and having a very bright shade of blue.

->''"When you can do the things I can do, but you don't, and then the bad things happen... they happen because of you."''

After getting bitten by a scientifically-altered spider, OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent Peter Parker gained the ability to crawl on walls and sense nearby threats, along with enhanced strength and agility. Peter initially plans to use these powers for personal gain. But when his uncle, Ben Parker, is shot and killed by a criminal that Peter realizes that he could have stopped, the teenager learns that WithGreatPowerComesGreatResponsibility and vows to use his abilities to protect others as the superhero ComicBook/SpiderMan... [[InMediasRes All of which has happened offscreen by the time we actually meet him.]]

A few months after his SuperheroOrigin, Spider-Man gets drafted into a conflict between the Avengers by Iron Man, gaining a new suit in the process. While seeking to prove that he's good enough to join the Avengers, Peter is able to take on a smaller threat on his own, proving his worth. However, Peter ultimately turns down the offer to become an Avenger, realizing that he can do more good stopping crime in New York City, which is an area that the Avengers can't usually cover... But when an alien invasion threatens New York once again, Spider-Man is officially inducted into their ranks by Iron Man.

[[foldercontrol]]
[[folder:#-B]]
* EleventhHourRanger: Tony Stark hastily recruits him as an Avenger at the start of ''Infinity War'', when Peter stows away onto the ship and joins the ride to Titan.
* ActionHero: While [[Film/SpiderManTrilogy previous]] [[Film/TheAmazingSpiderManSeries outings]] of the character had a strong focus on the {{angst}} that came with being a superhero, this iteration of Spider-Man is more visibly enthusiastic to be a hero, even treating his fight with the Avengers as something of an exciting adventure. He's able to disarm Captain America with a surprise attack, and he casually blocks a punch from Winter Soldier's metal arm without breaking a sweat, pulling it downward effortlessly while casually noting that he thinks it's cool. He's also the one who came up with the plan to defeat Giant-Man, who at that point had been giving the rest of the Pro-Registration side trouble. Moreover, he keeps the Falcon and the Winter Soldier in check ''at the same time'' for a good portion of the battle, and again comes up with the plan to take out Ebony Maw in ''Infinity War'' which had flummoxed Iron Man until Peter suggested it.
* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: Peter usually gets put through the wringer enough in most of his other appearances, but this gets hammered hard in ''Infinity War'', ''Endgame'', ''Far From Home'' and ''No Way Home''. Not only does he get turned to dust and spends the next five years dead, the moment he comes back, his mentor sacrifices his life to ensure the being responsible is bested for good. Peter then spends the next eight months dealing with the pressures of stepping up to the plate in Tony's place, but it gets to him and [[spoiler:Mysterio is able to take advantage and swipe Tony's last gift to him.]] He's able to accept he needs to be the hero that Iron Man was, but [[spoiler:Beck posthumously outs him and frames him for murder]]. [[Series/Daredevil2015 Matt Murdock]] clears him on the legal front, but [[ConvictedByPublicOpinion his social life gets so screwed up thanks to the public hounding him]] that he turns to Dr. Strange to wipe his identity from the public conscious. But both men [[PoorCommunicationKills don't specify the details that well]], and bring villains from the previous ''Spider-Man'' film series into Peter's backyard, along with [[spoiler:both his cinematic predecessors and Venom, the latter of whom fortunately decides to get wasted at a bar instead of showing up to tear him in half]]. He tries to help said villains, but Green Goblin [[spoiler:kills his Aunt May]], leading to a chain of events where [[spoiler:he has to have Strange wipe the knowledge of Peter Parker from the MCU, leaving him alone, broke, and with no support.]] Arguably, this is the worst punishment any Spidey has been through.
* AdaptationalIntelligence: {{Downplayed|Trope}}, as in the comics Peter is incredibly intelligent and when given the resources, is more than capable of creating technology that lets him keep up with many [[ScienceHero Science Heroes]]. However in ''No Way Home'', Peter is able to successfully create cures for three of the multiversal villains within a few hours of meeting them for the first time, with only the one for Green Goblin apparently failing (though it was possible the Goblin sabotaged the cure or it was not finished) while the cure for the Lizard was destroyed, leaving it unclear if it would have worked. Even when acknowledging that StatusQuoIsGod, his comic self has rarely been shown to invent cures for his villains outside of the Lizard.
* AdaptationalLateAppearance: This Peter lived in a world where the Avengers existed for years before he became Spider-Man and idolized Iron Man. His comic book counterpart actually predates Tony becoming Iron Man and by extension, the founding of the Avengers themselves.
* AdaptationPersonalityChange: He's a lot more hyperactive and overtly awkward than how his comic book counterpart started out. He's also more sociable, having rapport with various people around his neighborhood, while his comic version often isolated himself from others at the beginning and only started developing a social circle after CharacterDevelopment kicked in. The most likely reason is that unlike his comic book counterpart, he is not an outcast, which comes with him being born in an age where nerds aren’t looked down on as much. As such, Peter has at least a handful of friends (though at first Ned is the only one he can be considered close with) and was part of several clubs.
* AdaptationRelationshipOverhaul:
** With Tony Stark/Iron Man. Here, Peter idolizes and is always seeking to gain his approval with Stark acting as a stern father figure and [[TheMentor mentor]] to him. In the comics, they don't have such a relationship (except for the build-up to and during the Civil War), especially since Spidey actually predates Iron Man (and the Avengers) as a superhero there. If anything, he's historically been closer a friend to Captain America. The Ultimate versions had a comparable relationship, though.
** With the Avengers themselves. He became a superhero with dreams of becoming an Avenger, and is considered a close ally of them right until becoming a member. In the comics, Peter didn't join the Avengers until the '90s, and even then, only as a reserve member (where he took part in stories that featured ''everyone''). Historically, Spidey has been ''much'' closer to the ComicBook/FantasticFour as an HonoraryTrueCompanion, and has actually served on the FF before (notably during the ''[[ComicBook/{{FF}} Future Foundation]]'' era) with Reed being his father figure and Johnny being HeterosexualLifePartners with him, and everyone regarding him as their closest family outside each other. Rights issues at the time with Fox (before the merger) meant that the Fantastic Four had to be swapped for the Avengers.
** He had a much more sour relationship with Ned Leeds in the comics, even without the [[BrainwashedAndCrazy Brainwashed and Crazy]]. Here, Peter is best friends with the guy.
* AffectionateNickname: In ''Film/AvengersEndgame'', Captain America calls him “Queens” which is a CallBack to when Cap realized they were both New Yorkers during the big fight scene in ''Civil War''.
* AgeLift: His comic self got his powers when he was 15, but based on the MCU canon, he would have gotten his powers when he was 14 in this version.
* AlliterativeName: '''P'''eter '''P'''arker.
* AllLovingHero: In contrast to the world-saving Avengers, no good deed is too small for Spider-Man. From stopping bicycle theft, to giving an elderly woman directions, [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness to stopping the shooting of a mouthy thug by a weapons dealer]] by deliberately revealing his spying location, shouting, "You're gonna shoot somebody, shoot at me!". If the credits are anything to go by, he also regularly rescues cats from trees. He also spends the majority of ''No Way Home'' on a SaveTheVillain mission because he's unwilling to allow a group of dangerous supervillains from other universes to be killed on their return.
* AllWebbedUp: In true Spider-Man fashion, he can completely web his opponents up to disable them. He does this to Falcon in their scuffle in ''Civil War'' (though Sam still manages to take him out through some quick-thinking and surprise trickery). He also completely webs Mantis up in ''Infinity War' when she tries to use her powers to put him to sleep.
* AlternateSelf: So far there are four variants of Peter Parker with a possible fifth variant that has yet to be seen. See [[Characters/MCUSpiderManVariants Spider-Man Variants]] for more information.
* AMFMCharacterization: He's a fan of the indie rock band Music/AltJ and builds a suit to Music/{{ACDC}}'s "Back in Black" (picked by Happy) signifying how he's taking on Tony Stark's mantle. Of course, Peter incorrectly identifies it as belonging to Music/LedZeppelin.
* AnguishedDeclarationOfLove: [[spoiler:He attempts one, after MJ, who's memory of him is just about to be erased, gives her own ADL. However before Peter can tell her he loves her too, MJ stops him, and instead tells him to let her know when he finds her in the new world after everyone forgets Peter Parker. He promises her he will, with tears in his eyes.]]
* AnimalisticAbilities: He has speed, strength, and agility proportionate to those a spider's and can stick to surfaces like a spider can.
* AnimalThemedSuperbeing: He does whatever a spider can, in case you couldn't tell from his name and webbing.
* ApologeticAttacker: After webbing Winter Soldier and Falcon, he apologizes and says that he only did it because "I have one job and I've got to impress Mr. Stark."
* ArchEnemy: Peter has two in Mysterio and the Green Goblin. The former [[spoiler:revealed his identity and betrayed his trust, while the latter killed May causing Peter to almost kill him]].
* AscendedFanboy:
** Idolized superheroes like Captain America and Iron Man while growing up, and got to become one mid-puberty. [[ConflictingLoyalty Shame about the Avengers being pitted against one another.]] The Anti-Accord side doesn't seem to hold it against him, or at least not Captain America himself. During their fight, Cap learns that Spidey is a fellow New York native and tells him he has heart.
--->'''Spider-Man:''' Hey, Captain. Big fan. I'm Spider-Man.
** The plot of ''Homecoming'' revolves around him wanting to get a full promotion into becoming an Avenger, which he ultimately decides against. And then he '''does''' become an Avenger in ''Infinity War''.
* TheAtoner: It's heavily implied that Uncle Ben died because of Peter's negligence, spurring him to fight crime as Spider-Man.
* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: He got kicked around a lot due to letting himself be distracted by how cool a development or his opponent's powers/gadgets were. Examples include Falcon slamming into him after he pulled a PunchCatch on Bucky's metal-arm, and swinging straight into Giant-Man's waving hand right after he helped Iron Man and War Machine to take him down ''Franchise/StarWars''-style.
* AudienceSurrogate: In addition to being a [[AscendedFanBoy superhero fanboy]] he [[MetaGuy hangs several]] {{lampshade|Hanging}}s about common comic book trappings during the fight in ''Civil War'', such as that Cap's shield-throwing does not obey the laws of physics.
* TheBabyOfTheBunch: He's only a teenager while the rest of the Avengers are anywhere from their 20's to their 40's (technically Vision is the youngest, having only been created in 2015, but he's much more mature). This is the reason Tony is so adamant about him staying out of trouble. In ''No Way Home'' [[spoiler:he's the youngest Spider-Man when compared to his two counterparts, having been born in 2001 and then being dead for five years meaning he's just starting to apply for college while the Raimi-Verse Peter and the Webb-Verse Peter became Spider-Man in 2002 and 2013 and were born in TheEighties and TheNineties respectively]].
* BackFromTheDead: In ''Avengers: Endgame'', he is one of many characters who are brought back from being dusted by Hulk reversing Thanos's deadly fingersnap from ''Avengers: Infinity War''.
* BadassAdorable: Spider-Man is an adorable little guy who can go toe-to-toe with just about any of the other Avengers. In fact, the main reason he tends to lose fights is that he's too unfocused and easy to catch off-guard.
* BadassBookworm: Overlapping with GeniusBruiser. In his civilian identity, Peter is a dorky nerd, but as Spider-Man, he's one of the strongest heroes on the planet.
* BadLiar: He's mostly managed to keep his secret identity intact, but once other characters see an obvious indicator that he's Spider-Man, he deteriorates into a panicked mumbling. Case in point, his attempts to shove his superhero costume into his closet after Tony figures out its hiding place, or trying to weasel his way out of Ned watching him crawl across the ceiling.
* BaseBreakingCharacter: Becomes this InUniverse after [[spoiler:Beck outs his identity to the world and Matt gets the charges against him dropped. On the one half, people revere him as a hero. On the other, he's demonized as a murderer.]]
* BashSiblings: With the Avengers [[spoiler:and the Spider-Men from the Raimi-Verse and the Webb-Verse]].
* BatSignal: The Spider-Signal makes its big screen debut in the post-credits scene of ''Captain America: Civil War''.
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Peter Parker's initial story arc is about finding his place in the universe and wanting to be recognized as a hero worthy of being an Avenger. So he becomes one... which gets him killed and subsequently resurrected. After that debacle, the Avengers disband, leaving him on his own and placing ''huge'' expectations upon his shoulders when he would now rather spend time as a normal kid. This ultimately culminates in him dealing with an Avengers-level threat entirely on his own... [[spoiler:and he's rewarded by being framed for murder and having his secret identity exposed]].
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: The reason Tony Stark earns Peter's loyalty. The former marched to a kid living with his single parent/guardian and provided him validation and approval for his superhero life that he had previously been keeping to himself, and then gave him a bunch of upgrades free of charge. Compared to virtually everyone else, who Tony irritates for his brash and standoffish behavior, his friendship with Peter is a major exception.
* BeingGoodSucks: He's Spider-Man, this is a given. Whenever he does the right thing, it's always at a huge personal cost.
* BetaOutfit: His first costume was simply brightly colored sweats with a spider drawn on the front with a ski-mask and some welding goggles. Tony calls him "Underoos" for this.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Peter is a nice kid who has an earnest desire to be a hero. But make no mistake -- he's still a superhero with immense strength, agility, and reflexes and is ''not'' someone to be trifled with. [[spoiler:The first time we really see this in play is when he fights the Green Goblin after the latter killed Aunt May and threatened MJ. It's the first time we truly see Peter pissed off and at the end of his rope. Before, the Goblin trounced Peter, but now, it's Peter who curbstomps him with full intent to kill the villain. And he would have gone through with it if Raimi-Peter hadn't stepped in.]]
* BewareTheSillyOnes: He may be young and can't stop running his mouth, but his first appearance has him fighting Avengers twice his age and giving them a run for their money.
* BigApplesauce: From Queens, with a more pronounced New York accent than most other versions of the character. Cap is pleased to know this, since he's a fellow New York native (born and raised in Brooklyn).
* BigDamnHeroes: In ''Endgame'', he saves Tony Stark from Cull Obsidian by pulling him back with his webs for Ant-Man to step on and kill.
* BlackAndWhiteMorality: Not surprisingly for someone his age, he has a very black and white view on crime and life. He takes Iron Man at his word that Captain America and his team are in the wrong during the airport battle and leaves Aaron Davis webbed up to his car just because he's a convicted criminal. Toomes recognizes this and tries explaining to Peter that [[VillainHasAPoint the real world is a lot more gray and he can't think that way]], though he's clearly self-motivated and stalling for time.
* BlessedWithSuck:
** His accelerated perception is a huge asset when fighting villains. When he needs to wait until morning for a pair of concrete doors to open? Not so much. PlayedForLaughs when, during a waiting montage, he's irritated to learn that less than an hour has passed.
** His Spider-Sense lets him know when there's a significant threat coming. Unfortunately, when that significant threat is ''instant eradication at the Infinity Gauntlet-clad hand of Thanos'', that just means that he has time to [[MortalityPhobia realize he's dying]].
* BoobsAndButtPose: The theatrical poster for ''Far From Home'' shows him in this pose. Quite unusual to see a teenager in this pose though.
* BornUnlucky: As expected from any Spider-Man. In just his first solo movie, he is bullied by Flash, gets no respect from Happy and Tony, causes the elevator and barge accidents (the latter, he tries to fix it and yet the thing collapses again because he misses one spot) and discovers the same guy he's fighting is the father of his date.
* BrainyBrunette: He has brown hair and despite his recklessness, Peter has proven to be quite intelligent.
* BrassBalls: When he was a kid, one of Vanko's MechaMooks approaches him while wearing an Iron Man mask. Instead of running away, he stares down at the machine and raises his hand before Tony comes in and blasts the robot to smithereens. He even commends Peter on his bravery.
-->'''Tony:''' Nice work, kid.
* BreakTheCutie: Comparing him in his happy, enthusiastic first appearance in ''Captain America: Civil War'' to the shots of him red-eyed and shying away from even being Spider-Man throughout ''Far From Home'' really drives home how much a superhero life has finally taken a mental toll on Peter. Then ''No Way Home'' comes along and makes his life even worse.
* BrokenPedestal: [[spoiler:When he meets Mysterio, who he looked up to, after learning the truth about the Elementals, he is ''pissed''. So pissed, in fact, that he completely stops with the usual banter that he's known for and talks to him only with a tone of disgust and disappointment.]]
* BroodingBoyGentleGirl: GenderInverted with him as the Gentle Boy to Michelle's Brooding Girl.
* BuffySpeak: When making his ''Star Wars'' analogy in ''Civil War'', he doesn't know the actual name for the AT-AT vehicles, so he calls them "the walking thingies".
* BunnyEarsLawyer: It's implied that the Academic Decathlon team is willing to put up with his flaky nature because he's so smart (and he's not a jerk like Flash).
* BuildingSwing: He does this with his webs -- it's the best way for a spider to travel. His solo movie, however, shows that it's basically useless anywhere but the middle of a big city. At various points he resorts to riding on trucks, hoofing it through the suburbs, and stealing Flash's car.
* ButtMonkey: To say that bad things happen to him a lot would be an understatement.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:C-G]]
* CallingYourAttacks:
** ''Spider-Man: Homecoming'' has him announce his web combinations this way, such as "Ricochet Web" and "Web Grenade". Justified in that the suit is partly voice-activated.
** In ''Infinity War'', this is PlayedForLaughs when he's fighting Thanos with help with portals generated by Doctor Strange:
--->'''Spider-Man:''' Magic! ''[teleports]'' More magic! ''[teleports again]'' Magic with a kick! ''[teleports once more]'' Magic with a punch!
* TheCameo: Footage of Peter from ''No Way Home'' appears in ''Film/VenomLetThereBeCarnage'' [[spoiler:during TheStinger, where Eddie and Venom are inexplicably transported to the MCU and tune into ''The Daily Bugle'' reporting on Mysterio's FrameUp of him]].
* CannotKeepASecret: The fact that he's ''terrible'' at maintaining his secret identity is lampshaded more than once. Despite his attempts to hide his double life his identity is discovered separately by Tony, Aunt May and Ned. In ''Far From Home'' MJ guesses it ''on her own'' and even tells Peter it was pretty obvious. [[spoiler:It comes back to bite him ''hard'' in the stinger for ''Far From Home'', where Mysterio publicly outs him as Spider-Man.]]
* CannotSpitItOut: Throughout ''Homecoming'', he constantly stumbles on his words when he tries to talk to Liz, and is staring at his feet when he finally tells her about his crush on her. However, she'd already figured it out, and offers to be his date to the school dance. In ''Far From Home'', he's having a similar problem with MJ, where he's [[ComplexityAddiction plotted out a six-step plan]] to communicate his feelings for her rather than state them outright from the start.
* CanonCharacterAllAlong: The kid wearing an Iron Man mask in ''Iron Man 2'' (in real life, the son of director Creator/JonFavreau) was {{retcon}}ned to be him by WordOfGod, or at least according to Holland and ''Homecoming'' director Jon Watts.
* TheCape: Peter is consistently shown to be one of the most idealistic and compassionate superheroes. He’s also one of the few Avengers who isn't a soldier and hasn’t taken a life for any reason until the final battle in ''Endgame'', where he is [[GodzillaThreshold forced to kill]] in order to survive and keep the Infinity Gauntlet out of Thanos's reach.
* CasualDangerDialogue: He spends the entire airport battle chattering away as if it were a friendly get together. For instance, after blocking a punch from Winter Soldier, and turning his cybernetic arm to examine it more closely, he takes the time to compliment him on it saying, "You have a [[ArtificialLimbs metal arm]]?! That's awesome, dude!" Falcon lampshades this by telling him fights usually aren't really talkative. Justified, his MotorMouth is symptomatic of him being inexperienced and nervous.
** He did this again in ''No Way Home'' in the middle of a fight with the supervillains to explain who the Avengers are to [[spoiler: the other Peters, until Raimi-Verse Peter interrupts him shouting "how is this helping?"]].
* CatchPhrase: He often says "That's awesome!".
* CharacterDevelopment: When he starts off as a hero, he mostly sticks to the shadows and does little things to help out his neighborhood. His introduction to Tony Stark and the Avengers (plus a new suit) in ''Civil War'' gave him a huge confidence boost and he begins to work more openly and interact with his fellow New Yorkers. Most of his time in ''Homecoming'' is spent trying to prove himself to Stark and become an official member of the Avengers to save the world. By the end of the film, Peter is given the chance to join but turns it down because he decides he'd rather stay close to the ground and help out the little guy. Come ''Far From Home'', he's content to try and settle down for a bit after he's been dead for five years and Tony sacrificed himself to stop Thanos, especially because he's being pressured to become the next Iron Man. Thanks to [[spoiler:Mysterio's]] manipulations, he's able to step up to the plate and become the hero he was meant to be...only for [[spoiler:Beck to screw him over again and out him to the public while simultaneously framing him for murder.]] After a serious of events drop the Sam Rami and Marc Webb ''Spider-Man'' villains into the MCU and leads to the original Green Goblin [[spoiler:killing Aunt May]], he really learns the hard way that old adage "With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility" and [[spoiler:selflessly gives up everything to wipe out all knowledge of Peter Parker from his home universe to ensure a gaggle of foes who know his name throughout the multiverse won't overcrowd and destroy Earth.]]
* CheapCostume
** In addition to his original costume, ''Far From Home'' features a gag where he's' forced to hide his face with an Italian jester's mask after leaving his suit in the hotel room.
** [[spoiler:After having Doctor Strange wipe all knowledge of Peter Parker from the MCU to send all of the multiversal villains back to their home universes, Peter is forced to make his own suit from scratch again since he now has no support and none of the resources that Tony Stark left him. While it is the most comics-accurate spider-suit on screen to date, it is a simple blue-and-red spandex jumpsuit without any of the additional bells and whistles of his other suits like the Iron Spider or his previous cloth suits with an integrated computer system in them. This one doesn't even seem to have the iris-lenses, something he was able to kluge together out of welder's goggles for his BetaOutfit.]]
* ChickMagnet: As Spider-Man, a number of his female classmates like him. Michelle is strongly implied to be interested in Peter in ''Homecoming'', and [[spoiler:by the end of ''Far From Home'', they've had a RelationshipUpgrade]]. And despite his apparent flaking nature, Liz does reveal to him that she ''is'' attracted to him. There's also the small group of German girls who give him flirtatious looks during his home video at the beginning of ''Homecoming'' (which he's clearly pretty thrilled by).
* ChildSoldier: Tony Stark recruits Peter to fight along with the Pro-Registration side, and while no one in Team Cap would harm him or anyone else on Team Stark, they are engaging with an unstable person like the Winter Soldier, making Tony's decision to bring him along [[GrayingMorality rather questionable]], especially since Tony knew that they would pull their punches. Iron Man recruited him in the hope that having one more super-powered figure would give him the advantage. As far as Tony knew, most of Team Cap was non-powered to moderately powered figures with the exception of Scarlet Witch while he had himself, Black Widow, War Machine, and Vision. Getting Spider-Man and Black Panther on his side at the same time gave him the clear superior advantage. He didn't count on Captain America's side recruiting Ant-Man, whose abilities nobody was prepared for. After his initial plan for a CurbStompBattle goes awry, Tony orders Spider-Man out and sends him back home. Of course, at that point, there wasn't really a team for Peter to be on anyway.
-->'''Rhodes:''' Jesus, Tony, how old is this guy?\\
'''Tony:''' I don't know, I didn't carbon date him! He's on the young side!
* ChronicHeroSyndrome: Peter just cannot stand by and let something bad happen on his watch. He regularly looks at the clock in his classes, eagerly waiting to get out and do heroics as soon as the school day ends. It's true that he does a lot of things just to impress Tony Stark, but when given a choice between his personal life and being Spider-Man, he will always choose the latter. This gets deconstructed a little bit, however, when Peter's misguided eagerness to do good makes him reckless and under-prepared, leading to him often getting his butt handed to him by the various bad guys he comes across or putting civilian lives in danger.
** This bites him in the ass hard in ''No Way Home''. [[spoiler:Due to immense guilt for MJ and Ned not getting into MIT, on top of the harassment May and Happy suffer he immediately goes towards Dr. Strange for a memory wipe spell without consulting anyone. When the spell is butchered and instead ends up bringing in villains from across the multiverse, rather than sending the villains home immediately which would make everyone's lives much easier, the absolute second he finds out that they are all but guaranteed to die upon their return galvanizes him to keeping them on his Earth to help and heal them before sending them back. While he succeeds, and even is able to help the other two Spideys rectify past pain and sins, he loses absolutely everything in the process. May is dead, and there's no one left on Earth that remembers him. He is now utterly alone in a way no other Spider-Man is, but he still trudges on as a hero.]]
* ClarkKentOutfit: Much like the source material. Peter's everyday outfits aren't especially baggy or ill-fitting, but are just casual enough to hide his muscles.
* ColossusClimb: Once Ant-Man grows to giant size, Spider-Man climbs on him, first acting as a nuisance before using his webbing to entangle his legs.
* CombatParkour: A lot of his fighting movements involve jumping, climbing, and swinging.
* ComesGreatResponsibility: Par the norm for the character. He tells Tony that he carries out superheroics (even when the Avengers and other superheroes exist) because he feels as though bad things happen to other people if he doesn't, and after what presumably happened with Uncle Ben, he doesn't want anyone to suffer by his inaction. He also declines to try out for the football team even though he's always wanted to play, as it wouldn't be fair with his superhuman abilities.
* CompositeCharacter: He's a young Peter Parker with his scientific knowledge and a modernized take on his family life, but he also borrows from ComicBook/MilesMorales. Like Miles, he attends a specialist academy for gifted students, and his best friend is himself a composite of Miles Morales' friend Ganke Lee and Peter's friend Ned Leeds. Additionally, his being recruited by Tony Stark shortly after starting his career as Spider-Man is much like how [[ComicBook/UltimateSpiderMan Ultimate Peter]] and later Miles was recruited by Nick Fury -- whose MCU counterpart would go on to mentor him in ''Far From Home''. He's also a huge fanboy of the older superheroes just like Peter from ''WesternAnimation/UltimateSpiderMan2012''. [[spoiler:''No Way Home'' ends with him being erased from everyone's memory, including his allies and loved ones, which makes him similar to ComicBook/TheSentry, and takes some inspiration from the Miles in ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse'' due to being the youngest of the three Spider-Men and losing a family member at the hands of the film's main antagonist.
* CoolMask: Would he really be Spider-Man without the iconic mask? This one is unique in that it's also an ExpressiveMask, something that is achieved in live-action for the first time.
* CovertPervert:
** In ''Far From Home'', Happy reveals that after the airport battle in ''Civil War'', Peter discreetly (possibly accidentally) ordered a porn movie while recovering in the hotel. Peter's not too happy to be reminded of this.
** He also takes plenty of glances at his female love interests when (he thinks) they're not looking.
* CunningLinguist: Takes Spanish lessons at school, and at least knows enough to pull off a BilingualBackfire.
* CurseCutShort: His final line in ''Far From Home'' is "WHAT THE F--" before an abrupt cut to the credits. For context, he's been framed for murder and terrorism and has been publicly outed as Peter Parker while on a date with MJ.
* CuteBruiser: A young man with boyish good looks who can effortlessly catch a prosthetic arm made of titanium with one hand and hold together a boat that was torn in half.
* CutHimselfShaving: In the ''Civil War'' post-credits scene, he tries to brush off the injuries he received in the large-scale airport battle as just being from a fight with "[[ExactWords a Brooklynite named Steve and his huge friend]]," which is entirely true.
* DeadpanSnarker: He's more snarky than deadpan, but he gets in a few good ones.
-->'''Falcon:''' I don't know if you've been in a fight before, but there's usually not this much talking.\\
'''Spider-Man:''' Alright, sorry, my bad. ''[goes right back to beating up Falcon and Winter Soldier]''
* DeathAmnesia: He apparently doesn’t remember being snapped out of existence by Thanos and simply attributes it to "passing out". According to ''Series/WandaVision'' and ''Series/{{Hawkeye|2021}}'', seems that many of the Vanished don't remember being snapped, either.
* DeconReconSwitch:
** His younger age puts a tighter narrative focus on how being a teen aged superhero can compromise your personal life at a uniquely messy point. Before becoming Spider-Man, he was involved in several extracurricular activities and much closer to his friends and family. Most of the time he doesn't flake on them to fight a crime-in-progress but to simply go on patrol, looking for trouble. Furthermore, he's also more child than adult and acts the part. Yes, he is extremely intelligent, but his naïvety, poor judgement, weak impulse control, unthinking destructiveness, and lack of introspection and self-awareness are all things that you could honestly expect to see from someone his age in his position. He may be a prodigy, but he's still a teenager and teenagers do stupid stuff. With that said, however, his young age and inexperience also give him a strong moral compass and a desire to help out as many people as he can, including the average joes the Avengers tend to ignore. This makes Peter decide to turn down the offer to join the team as he can fill that niche while Stark and his teammates can't.
** The MCU incarnation as a whole is supposed to this to the tropes that have defined Spider-Man since his debut in TheSixties, particularly the "Self-sufficient superhero" and "[[WorkingClassHero Friendly neighborhood Spider-Man]]" aspects by making them take place in TheNewTens. Peter is introduced as having built his own web-shooters and fighting crime in a costume, but his gear is ''much'' lower-grade than that of the Avengers and his costume barely passes as a B-grade cosplay. In addition, his secret identity is far harder to maintain due the rise of the rapid coverage of news and social media. In general, this Peter ''was'' a self-sufficient hero -with all the troubles it entailed- but in order to get his hands on the proper gear and maintenance to deal with larger threats he needed outside funding.
* DespairEventHorizon: [[spoiler:After watching his Aunt May die in his arms, being subsequently attacked by Damage Control, and J. Jonah Jameson continuing to blame Spider-Man for everything that has happened thus far, Peter completely crumbles emotionally, and is clearly on the brink of giving up all hope. He's thankfully convinced to soldier on by his fellow variants, though it takes them quite a bit of convincing.]]
* DestructiveSavior: Specifically in his first solo movie, ''Homecoming'', where his inexperience is showcased at every turn. In his swings he often breaks stuff and, when dealing with the bad guys, has a tendency to cause more damage than might have occurred without his intervention.
* {{Determinator}}: Very much so. His response to having most of a warehouse dropped on him is, after a moment of panic, to recreate the classic LoadBearingHero moment from the "Master Planner" arc.
* DidNotGetTheGirl:
** In ''Homecoming'' regarding his first major crush Liz. Seeing how he ends up handing her father over to the authorities, which leads to her moving to Oregon, and they were on somewhat bad terms since he was forced to ditch her at the dance, it makes sense that things were doomed for them after that.
** Averted, however, in ''Far From Home,'' where he hooks up with MJ. ''No Way Home'', [[spoiler:however, plays this straight. To prevent the universe from getting overcrowded with multiversal villains who knew his identity, Peter tells Strange to cast a new spell to make everyone forget who Peter Parker is, Michelle included. He gets the opportunity to tell her, but decides not to since her life has less danger without him in it.]]
* DiedInYourArmsTonight: He disintegrates in Tony Stark's arms after Thanos snaps his fingers and kills half the universe's population.
* DitzyGenius: In ''No Way Home'' when he, MJ and Ned don't get into MIT due to him being Spider-Man, Peter contacts Dr. Strange to cast a spell to make everyone forget his secret identity, except for MJ, Ned, May, Happy, and pretty much everyone who knew he was Spider-Man before he was exposed. Due to the dangers of Peter constantly rewriting his spell, a belligerent Strange calls it off. He apologizes to Peter, stating that even though MIT didn't accept them and Peter pleaded his case...
-->'''Peter:''' Wait. You can do that? I just assumed once you were rejected that was it.\\
'''Strange:''' ''[a mixture of horror and anger]'' I'm sorry... Are you telling me that you didn't even ''think'' to plead your case with them first before you asked me to ''brainwash the entire world''?\\
'''Peter:''' ...Well, I mean, when you put it like ''that''...
* DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength: Peter has pretty good control over his super strength, but said control humorously slips up a few times when he's nervous or upset. In ''Far From Home'', his abilities appear to be getting stronger, leading to a few slip ups with his strength. While on the bus, he accidentally knocks Flash unconscious while trying to get Tony's glasses back from him and hitting his face. Peter is comically horrified at this. While getting into a car with Happy, he accidentally snaps the seat-belt off from the car when trying to put it on.
* DontTellMama: He doesn't tell Aunt May about his super-heroics because she'd freak out which would make ''him'' freak out. He webs Tony's hand to the door knob of his room and firmly says "Don't tell Aunt May" when Tony is about to leave.
* DorkKnight: As heroic as the source material and other adaptations of the character, but more geekier this time around.
* DrivesLikeCrazy: Part of the climax of ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'' involves him rushing across New York in a car. His reckless driving is partly because he's desperate to catch up to the Vulture, but mostly because he's only ever driven slowly around a parking lot under Aunt May's supervision.
* DumpsterDive: Due to being lower-class, he ends up taking useful stuff (like ''the'' Macintosh) from a junkyard and snatching usable items people have thrown out.
* EagerRookie: In ''Infinity War'', he's the teen who sneaks inside the Q-Ship in order to help Tony Stark after the latter has sent him away out of fear for his safety. In his defense, Peter notes that one can't be a low-key neighborhood hero if said neighborhood ends up being destroyed, and Tony can't object to that.
* EarlyBirdCameo:
** Depending on which MCU actor or creator you talk to, the boy wearing the Iron Man mask that Tony saves from the Hammer drone in ''Film/IronMan2'' is actually a younger Peter.[[note]]Creator/KevinFeige would not officially confirm this, since it's a {{Retcon}} to a movie that was made well before Sony and Marvel started cooperating.[[/note]] Worth noting is that Peter does have a Stark Expo poster in his room.
** Like Doctor Strange in ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier'', he is alluded to in a Phase 2 movie before his Phase 3 debut.[[note]]It was originally '''not''' meant to refer to Spider-Man in particular, as ''Ant-Man'' finished shooting before the deal between Sony and Marvel, but it has since been revised into being an allusion to the wall-crawler.[[/note]] Scott Lang's buddy, Luis, mentions that he heard something about Spidey in a chain of conversation:
--->'''Luis:''' We've got a guy who can [[InASingleBound jump]]. A guy who can [[BuildingSwing swing]]. A guy who can [[WallCrawl crawl up walls]].
* EmbarrassingNickname:
** "Underoos", which Tony calls him during the Avengers Civil War.
** "Penis Parker", which Flash used to call him.
** And thanks to Ned's terrible skills at improvising nicknames, his Black Stealth-Suit Persona in Europe is known as "Night Monkey."
* EstablishingCharacterMoment:
** In his first official appearance, Peter is introduced not as Spider-Man saving someone, but as a young teen bringing a disused VCR home and completely geeking out at the sight of Tony Stark physically in his home. However, while his reaction is a positive one, he's also obviously bothered by a genius, billionaire, playboy philanthropist visiting what should've been a normal Queens apartment, demonstrating his caution over his SecretIdentity.
** If you count the EarlyBirdCameo in ''Iron Man 2'', Peter Parker distracting the rampaging Hammeroid drones speaks a lot about his capacity for heroism well before he gained superpowers.
* EvenTheLovingHeroHasHatedOnes:
** In ''Far From Home'', Peter comes to deeply resent [[spoiler:Quentin Beck AKA Mysterio]], after all of the horrible things he's done, such as [[spoiler:manipulating Peter's emotions]], [[spoiler:putting him through MindRape]], and [[spoiler:targeting his loved ones]]. In the FinalBattle, Peter shows NoSympathy as [[spoiler:Mysterio lies dying from an [[HoistByHisOwnPetard unintentionally self-inflicted]] wound]] and does not attempt to SaveTheVillain like he did with the [[Film/SpiderManHomecoming Vulture]].
** In ''No Way Home'', Peter spends most of the film on a mission to {{Save the Villain}}s, trying to cure the various ailments of the multiversally-displaced villains rather than just sending them back to their own universes to be killed fighting Spider-Man because he feels morally obligated to help everyone he can. However, the Green Goblin becomes an exception to this after he [[spoiler:kills Aunt May. In their final showdown, Peter fights him with a rage unlike any he's shown previously, and even comes perilously close to breaking his ThouShaltNotKill rule before [[Film/SpiderManTrilogy Peter 2]] stops him.
* TheEveryman: A staple of the character. Compared to [[ComicBook/IronMan a millionaire playboy]], [[ComicBook/CaptainAmerica an idolized war hero]], and [[ComicBook/TheMightyThor a god]]; Peter was just an OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent prior to gaining his powers before he JumpedAtTheCall.
* EveryoneCanSeeIt: His crush on Liz, including ''Liz herself.'' Fortunately, she likes Peter too.
* ExpressiveMask:
** In a live-action example, the irises on Spidey's mask visibly contract. If one were to look and listen closely, you can see when the irises get smaller, they look like camera lenses zooming in and you can also hear a mechanical noise. The reason for this is given during Peter Parker's first encounter with Tony Stark. Peter explains that while in "Spidey mode", he needs goggles that restrict his vision to not have his SuperSenses become overwhelming. The mechanical irises provide the same advantage.
** The eyes on Peter Parker's mask widen in stupefied disbelief as [[spoiler:Mysterio publicly blows his secret identity wide open on Broadway's Megavision]].
* ExtremityExtremist: An {{Enforced|Trope}} InvertedTrope during ''Homecoming''. [[WordOfGod According to]] Creator/KevinFeige, the choreography in Spider-Man's battles is planned in a way that allows him to never actually throw any punches. This is actually quite similar to how Marvel approached the character in ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManTheAnimatedSeries'' -- and that version of Spider-Man only landed a single punch over the course of the entire series. Peter uses a lot more punches and kicks in ''Infinity War''.
* FaceDeathWithDespair: Once Peter Parker realizes that he's being turned to dust by Thanos's snap, he starts crying, embraces Tony Stark and pleads, "I don't want to go. Please, Mr. Stark, I don't want to go." Considering he's a 16-year-old kid, this is a perfectly understandable reaction.
* FanBoy: Of the Avengers, but mainly Iron Man and Captain America. While being a fan of the former ends up being a significant focus of his character arc across his first five appearances in the MCU, the latter is handled with more subtlety. For instance, in ''Far From Home'', when [[spoiler:Mysterio is in the middle of trying to psychologically break Spider-Man by exploiting his insecurities, they fight on top of a projection of a toppled Captain America statue, implying that Captain America no longer leading the Avengers is something that weighs heavily upon his mind]].
* FatalFlaw: Impulsiveness, and a tendency to not think things through.
** This is evident in the airport battle in ''Civil War'', where he deliberately goes against Tony's instructions and fights the Falcon and Winter Soldier head on in order to "impress Mr. Stark". He's later distracted by his victory over Giant-Man and promptly gets knocked out.
** His urge to become an Avenger is a continuing theme in ''Homecoming'', which has some serious consequences when the ferry incident nearly gets everyone killed. By the end, he's more or less come to terms with it and turns down a serious offer to join the team.
** In ''Infinity War'', his insistence on personally helping out puts him on a crash-course with '''Thanos''', in spite of Iron Man's attempt to get him to land safely back on Earth. He defends the decision by saying he can't be a friendly neighborhood Spider-Man if there ''is'' no neighborhood. This trope is ultimately zig-zagged in this instance, as he actually survives the fight with Thanos unscathed, and makes things better for the team than if he hadn't been there at all. He only dies when Thanos snuffs out half of all sapient life, which would have logically killed him regardless of where he was at the time.
** In ''No Way Home'', [[spoiler:his jumping into extreme, rather than mundane measures to restore his secret identity and aid his loved ones ultimately ends in a horrific case of DisasterDominoes, culminating in him losing his last remaining relative, friends and Avengers allies]].
* FighterMageThief: He's the Mage alongside Peter 2's Fighter and Peter 3's Thief in ''No Way Home'', utilizing his scientific mind and technology much more than them, as well as being more in tune with his SpiderSense.
* FightingClown: Most of the seasoned heroes quickly peg him as an overeager kid in underoos, having loads of fun and not taking the fight seriously... until the moment they really clash against him, and they realize just how strong, fast, versatile and dangerous he actually is. He proves to be perfectly able to take on ''Winter Soldier and Falcon simultaneously'', and then able to ''kick Captain America's ass''; it's only Steve's greater combat experience that allows him to prevail. Though Peter's comparative youth also means no-one probably wanted to hit him too hard.
* FinalFirstHug: Tony largely keeps himself emotionally distant from him, rebuffing a hug from him in ''Spider-Man: Homecoming''. When Thanos's BadassFingersnap culls half the universe's population in ''Infinity War'', and Peter is one of the victims, all Tony does is hug the terrified, crying boy as he [[DiedInYourArmsTonight disintegrates in his arms]]. They get a proper hug in ''Endgame'' once Peter has been brought back to life by Bruce and Tony sees him again since his death. The BigBadassBattleSequence that begins right after costs Tony his life.
-->'''Peter:''' ''[surprised]'' Wow... this is nice.
* FirstKiss: In ''Far From Home'', Peter shares his first kiss with MJ on the Tower Bridge at the end of the climactic battle.
* {{Foil}}: Peter plays off quite a few of the Pro-Registration Avengers in ''Civil War''. In particular, Spider-Man is a foil to...
** Black Panther. Both are independent superheroes who initially have no connection to the Avengers, but end up getting involved in the conflict. T'Challa is very reserved, serious, and is utterly indifferent towards the Avengers, while Peter is mouthy, a jokester, and worships the ground the Avengers walk on.
** To Iron Man. Both are [[RedIsHeroic superheroes dressed in red]], scientific geniuses who fashioned their own suits and tools (even if Pete's original suit was just a homemade onesie with swimming goggles and a red ski mask), and both are very witty wisecrackers, who sometimes use their wittiness to hide their emotional pain. Both, however, come from radically different economic backgrounds: Tony was born into money and is a [[CrimefightingWithCash successful billionaire inventor with unlimited money and cutting-edge tech at his fingertips]], while Pete's family is of [[WorkingClassHero comparatively modest means, and everything he built was made from what he could scrounge]]. Age also plays a big part in differentiating them: by the time Tony and Peter meet, Tony has been saving the world as Iron Man for some years, while Peter has been playing the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man for only a few months. Tony has more experience under his belt and is all the wiser for it, while Peter is young and naïve, not quite realizing the limits of his strengths until they come back to bite him in the ass. Both are also {{chick magnet}}s but while Tony was a womanizer before settling down with Pepper, Peter only has two love interests he primarily focuses on in his respective solo movies.
** To Captain America. Both are New York natives (Steve is from Brooklyn, Peter from Queens) who come from less privileged backgrounds, JumpedAtTheCall, and are so eager to do the right thing that they will ignore orders or attempt to punch outside their weight class. Cap is a much more strategic combatant where Spidey is a bit more impulsive. As of ''No Way Home'' [[spoiler:Peter Parker has also lost all contact with his friends and family, like Steve Rogers. Except in his case it was due to a spell that wiped all knowledge of Peter Parker rather than being frozen for decades.]]
** To Ant-Man. Both of them are new heroes whose abilities and names are based off of arthropods. Both are the SixthRanger to their side, are extremely intelligent and quirky, and turn the tide of the airport battle repeatedly. The difference is Scott is WeakButSkilled while Peter is UnskilledButStrong. They're also at the opposite ends of the age range, with Peter being in high school while Scott is a parent. Also, while Peter looks up to Tony Stark and was told that Cap went rogue, Scott worships Captain America and was warned by Hank Pym not to trust Iron Man.
* FriendlyEnemy:
** He may be taking a side in the airport fight, but he has no ill will towards the Anti-Registration team. It doesn't take long for Cap to acknowledge his good heart.
** He briefly bonds with Aaron Davis, a small-time criminal, while "interrogating" him, and Davis appreciates Spider-Man previously saving his life from Vulture's gang.
** He has no personal beef with the Vulture, and even saves him when his wings malfunction, but can't let him get away with filling the streets with dangerous weapons.
* FunPersonified: He's the most upbeat and enthusiastic member of the Avengers.
* GadgeteerGenius: He designed a formula for bio-synthetic webbing and constructed it with scraps from the garbage without previous exposure to a lab or engineering. He also sketched the design for and created his web shooters using leftovers from the dumpster. Tony Stark is visibly impressed with this in their first meeting. While Tony Stark or Shuri have had resources and opportunities to spare as to improve their tech, Peter [[WorkingClassHero has managed to make do with the small stuff]]. Peter also mentions building and programming computers in his spare time, and he uses his knowledge of physics in both ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'' and ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming''. He identifies Falcon's wings as being constructed of carbon-fiber due to their "flexibility-rigidity ratio" and uses that to his advantage, and uses his suit's A.I. system to pinpoint the strongest points in the ferry in order to web it together.
* GeniusBruiser: One strong hero, but is also a TeenGenius in terms of [[GadgeteerGenius engineering]], physics, chemistry, and tactics in combat. He mainly lacks experience and makes errors in judgement typical of his age and excitable personality, and there's no reason either can't improve with time.
* GenreSavvy: He uses his knowledge of ''Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack'' to come up with the means of taking down Giant-Man by tripping him over. In ''Homecoming'' he's swift to note that the super-villains will ''obviously'' have a lair. ''Infinity War'' continues it, by having him use the "create an airlock to suck the bad guy out of the ship" tactic from ''Film/{{Aliens}}''.
* TheGlovesComeOff: Upon returning to Earth in ''Endgame'' as part of TheCavalry in the FinalBattle, he immediately does away with subtlety against the Outriders by activating his suit's "Instant Kill" mode. [[spoiler: Also, in Peter and Green Goblin's rematch in ''No Way Home'', he was hitting Gobby with intent to end his life, getting very close to impaling him with his glider before being stopped by Peter 2.]]
* GogglesDoSomethingUnusual: After Tony snarks at the goggles of his prototype costume, Peter defends them saying it helps him focus through the SensoryOverload of his Spider-Sense.
* GoodCannotComprehendEvil: [[spoiler:After defeating Mysterio, and looking at the carnage and rampage he caused in his quest to be a HeroWannabe, Peter asks, "How could you do this?".]]
[[/folder]]
[[folder:H-M]]
* AHandfulForAnEye: During the fight in Titan, he blinds Thanos by webbing his eyes and kicking him in the face so that Doctor Strange and Drax have an opportunity to land hits in him.
* HasAType: Though perhaps not intentionally on the part of the filmmakers, both of his love interests just so happen to be extremely smart, beautiful African-American girls who are much taller than he is.
* HealingFactor: He's no ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}, but not only can Peter [[SuperToughness tank serious damage]], he quickly bounces back after a few hours of rest. Giant-Man left him battered and disoriented, but by the end of ''Civil War'', he's recovered enough that he only has a few superficial bruises and a cut lip. Toomes drops a literal ''building'' on his head and while it takes some HeroicResolve so find the strength to dig himself out, he's ready to fight shortly after. [[spoiler:In ''Far From Home'', Quentin Beck maneuvers Peter into the path of a '''bullet train''' that creams him head on, leaving him the most injured he's been in a film yet... But after a night's sleep, all that's left are a few bruises and a limp. By the time he's finally back home a couple of days later, you can barely tell he was in a fight at all.]]
* HeroAntagonist: In ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'', he's recruited by Tony to hunt Captain America and his team, even though he shows respect and {{Squee}} towards the Anti-Accords Avengers he's fighting against.
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:To help mend the multiverse, he allows a reluctant Doctor Strange to revamp his spell to erase the memory of Peter Parker from everybody he's ever known and loved, including [=MJ=], Ned, Happy and the other Avengers.]]
* HeroicSpirit: ''Never'' gives up. After Stark confiscates the suit, Peter barely hesitates to go after the Vulture in his old BetaOutfit. And even after Toomes buries him under half a building's worth of rubble, even while hurt and panicking, a trapped Peter decides that he doesn't need the suit to be a hero, leading to a loose adaptation of the page image.
-->'''Peter:''' Come on, Peter. [[SurvivalMantra Come on, Spider-Man. Come on, Spider-Man. Come on, Spider-Man!]] AAAGH! ''COME ON, SPIDER-MAN!!''
* HeroOfAnotherStory: In ''Civil War''. Tony learns about Spider-Man through popular Website/YouTube clips and figures out his secret identity, allowing him to recruit Spidey for Team Iron Man. After the airport battle, Tony tells Peter he's not ready to join the Avengers full-time and sends him back to New York for [[Film/SpiderManHomecoming his own adventures]].
* AHeroToHisHometown: The residents of Queens know and almost universally love him, and even the news can't help but mention Spidey is "Queens' own."
* HeroWithBadPublicity:
** Downplayed. As Peter's just starting out he doesn't really ''have'' a reputation, good or bad. People mostly treat him as some weird curiosity off of [=YouTube=].
--->'''Street Vendor:''' Hey! You're that spider guy on [=YouTube=], right?\\
'''Spider-Man:''' Call me Spider-Man.\\
'''Street Vendor:''' OK, "Spider-Man". Do a flip!\\
''[Spider-Man does a flip]''\\
'''Street Vendor:''' YEAH!
** By the end of ''Far From Home'', [[spoiler:Peter is framed for killing Quentin Beck and for the drone attacks thanks to doctored footage being shown on the Daily Bugle--one of the people of whom watching the report on this is ''Venom''.]] The effects of this was shown in ''No Way Home''.
* HiddenDepths:
** A FreezeFrameBonus of his bedroom in ''Homecoming'' shows posters and pennants that confirm he's a New York Mets fan, just like his comic book counterpart.
** Before the spider-bite, he was apparently in the school marching band and robotics club.
* HowDoIShootWeb: Literally. He gets into a spot of trouble with this after he and Ned hack his suit and remove the "Training Wheels Protocol", designed to ease him into the suit's various features. As a result, he has ''no idea'' how to use most of them at first -- many of which include ''over two hundred variations'' of the web shooters. Luckily for him, the guys he was tracking were having ''[[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments the exact same problem]]'', with Schultz trying to figure out the dampers on the gauntlet.
* HumiliationConga: What ''Homecoming'' ends up giving him. In his attempt to impress Tony Stark to land a seat in the Avengers, combined with Happy [[PoorCommunicationKills unwittingly making it feel like he's completely ignoring Peter despite clearly noting everything sent his way]], Peter strives to overachieve and ends up making massive mistakes after being warned to "keep himself on the ground", [[spoiler:complete with Tony taking his gifted suit back.]] This is on top of constantly letting his decathlon team down and disappointing friends, school staff and even Aunt May to push his "Stark internship" and urge to prove himself over his personal life. By the end of the movie, Peter moves to stop Toomes as ''Spider-Man'' on principles, not as the young Parker trying to impress, [[spoiler:and opts to stay a HumbleHero rather than join the Avengers -- something that Tony was totally about to do for him despite Peter thinking it was all a SecretTestOfCharacter like the rest of the film.]]
* ICanStillFight: Tries to get up and continue fighting after being briefly knocked unconscious, insisting he can go on even after Stark tells him he's done. It isn't until he tries to get up again that he realizes how injured he is.
* IconicAttributeAdoptionMoment: Prior to being recruited by Tony Stark, Spider-Man wore a crude costume consisting of a hoodie and sweatpants, modified welding goggles, and prototype web-shooters. He later gets a new comicbook-style suit in the lines of what we saw in the Raimi Trilogy and the Webb duology.
* IfIWantedYouDead: During his broadcast to the multiversal villains near the climax of ''No Way Home'', he tells them that he really did try to help them, pointing out that he could have sent them back to their universes to die at any given moment, but he didn't.
* IKnowMortalKombat:
** In ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'', Spidey manages to take down Giant-Man by replicating the strategy Luke Skywalker came up with in ''Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack'' to take down the AT-AT.
** In ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'', he comes up with a strategy that Ellen Ripley used in ''Film/{{Aliens}}'' to kill the Xenomorph Queen as a way of killing Ebony Maw.
* ILetGwenStacyDie: It's implied that he decided to become a superhero after he failed to prevent his uncle's death, which he feels responsible for. While he doesn't explain specifically what happened, he says that when you have his abilities and don't use them for good, and then "the bad things happen... they happen because of you".
* InASingleBound: His jumps are as crucial to the way he gets around as the webs. At one point, he casually does a standing jump over a gate significantly taller than him.
* InTheEndYouAreOnYourOwn: [[spoiler:After Peter has Strange erase everybody's memories of him, he ends up the most alone anybody in the MCU has ever been. He still decides to fight on as Spider-Man thanks to [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatResponsibility the lessons Aunt May and his multiverse counterparts]] left him with, fighting crime independently while flat broke in a professional suit of his own making just like his comic book incarnations.]]
* IntergenerationalFriendship:
** With Tony Stark starting in ''Civil War'', almost to the point of Tony being a sort of ParentalSubstitute.
** Briefly gets along with Captain America in spite of the two heroes fighting on opposing sides.
** Also forms this bond with Happy Hogan starting at the end of ''Homecoming''.
** Quentin Beck [[spoiler:insincerely]] takes up the role in ''Far From Home''.
** He develops a small one with Doctor Strange in ''No Way Home'' after the events of ''Infinity War'' and ''Endgame'', though it's complicated due to his part in messing up the spell that brought the Multiversal Villains to their universe.
** [[spoiler:He also befriends his older AlternateUniverse counterparts, Peter-2 and Peter-3.]]
* {{Irony}}:
** From ''Civil War'' to ''Endgame'', Peter is mostly ignored by the more experienced superheroes despite his interest in graduating from "friendly neighborhood Spider-Man" status to a core Avenger. By the time ''Far From Home'' comes around, Peter is now extremely reluctant to step up to the role they once played, even if said experienced heroes are either dead, off-world, or retired, which more-or-less ''requires'' Spider-Man to fill that niche.
** In the comics, Spider-Man predated the avengers and debuted as an independent KidHero (where young heroes were sidekicks at the time). Not only does MCU Spider-Man appear after the appearance of the avengers and was essentially a hero-in-training, [[spoiler:he became independent after having his Peter Parker identity {{Retgone}} in ''No Way Home''.]]
* ItsPersonal: [[spoiler:With Green Goblin who murders Aunt May. He even tries to kill him with his own glider's blades knowing full well the relatively innocent Norman personality is still inside him, which would have made him the murderer he's accused of being throughout ''No Way Home'' had Peter 2 not stopped him. Peter has ''NEVER'' gone this far with any villain before, and stands in stark contrast to his rescue of Vulture at the end of ''Homecoming'' to show how much Goblin [[ArchEnemy hurt him]].]]
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: [[spoiler:While in the new reality where he has been erased from everyone's memory, Peter cannot find the right words to remind MJ who he is, and what they were to each other before Strange's spell. He still can't help but give off a smile when learning that she, and Ned, have both been accepted to MIT, and she seems to be a much more optimistic than she was before. In the end he decides for the time being, she's better off not knowing who he is, as it will keep her safe.]]
* IWillFindYou: [[spoiler:Just before he is erased from her memory, Peter promises MJ he will find her again, and make everything right between them.]]
* JackOfAllTrades: Spider-Man has a wide variety of powers, but usually in a middle position when it comes to each one.
* JumpedAtTheCall: Since his SuperheroOrigin story happens off-screen in this version, six months have passed since Peter got his powers and he's introduced as an eager and enthusiastic young hero. His HeroWorship towards the Avengers from then on pretty much motivates him to be the best superhero he can be, although by ''Far From Home'' he has grown fairly weary of Superheroics and is up for a break. As ''Homecoming'' director Jon Watts says in an interview, "Peter loves being Spider-Man. He doesn't like being Peter Parker."
* JustAKid: {{Deconstructed|Trope}}. Being treated like a kid by Tony despite being a superhero only irritates Peter to the point he wants to prove he's mature enough to be an Avenger... but the way he proves it is by doing reckless stunts that only further prove that he's not ready. By the end of ''Homecoming'', he has been humbled enough to realize this and recognize that he still needs training before becoming an Avenger.
* JustFollowingOrders: He treats the airport brawl as a means of currying favor with "Mr. Stark" and holds absolutely no ill will to any of the other heroes. It remains to be seen whether any of the anti-Accords fighters will hold a grudge, but given he's an impressionable (and ''powerful'') teenager who thinks they're all ''awesome'' and was drawn into a conflict he only heard one side of the story about, it's not likely. Cap at the very least is impressed with him and recognizes his potential.
* KidHasAPoint: In ''Infinity War,'' as he and Tony argue inside the Q-ship, he comes up with the line that Tony can't rebuff:
-->'''Peter:''' You can't be a friendly neighborhood Spider-Man if there's no neighborhood.
* KidHero: He's still in high school when he's introduced, making him the youngest superhero in the setting.
* KidSidekick: Becomes Iron Man's on-off sidekick, with him assisting the seasoned hero and being mentored by him on many occasions.
* KillTheCutie: He's one of the many victims of Thanos's BadassFingersnap at the end of ''Infinity War'', something that weighs heavily on Iron Man's conscience. It's the reminder of his death that sparks Tony's motivation to join the Avengers in one last fight to bring the Snapped victims back.
* {{Knighting}}: After two films of him trying to convince Tony Stark to let him become an Avenger, Peter tags along in ''Infinity War'' when Tony jumps onto a spaceship leaving Earth. Since Tony has no way of sending him home and they've reached the [[PointOfNoReturn point of no return]], he taps Peter on his shoulders like he's knighting him, and announces, "Alright kid... you're an Avenger now." It takes Peter a second to realize what just happened.
* KnightInSourArmor: The entire point of his CharacterDevelopment. Over time, Peter finds out how dangerous and demanding being a superhero is to both himself and his loved ones, and his ordeals just keeps getting harder. Ultimately, [[spoiler:it gets to a point where Peter [[UnPerson sacrifices his own personal life]] to fix a CosmicFlaw he accidentally caused.]]
* TheKnightsWhoSaySquee: During the big fight of ''Civil War'', he keeps geeking out about the other heroes. Yes, [[FriendlyEnemy that's including the ones he fights against]].
** When he shows up after stealing Cap's shield.
--->'''Spider-Man:''' Cap-Captain. Big fan. Spider-Man
** After blocking a punch from {{cyborg}} Bucky Barnes.
--->'''Spider-Man:''' You have a metal arm!? That is awesome, dude!\\
'''Bucky:''' ???
** After exchanging blows with Falcon:
--->'''Spider-Man:''' Are those carbon fiber wings? That would explain the rigidity flexibility ratio, which, gotta say, that's awesome, man.\\
'''Falcon:''' I don't know if you've ever been in a fight before, but [[MotorMouth there's usually not this much talking]].
* TheLeader: [[spoiler:After some critical experiences with the Avengers, Peter uses his familiarity with working as a team to give direction to Peter 2 and Peter 3 as they corral the multiversal villains on Liberty Island in ''No Way Home''. He shows tremendous potential for any future situations that could require the same skills.]]
* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: His introduction in the second ''Civil War'' trailer has Tony Stark announce to the world at large that he's run out of patience, which cues Spidey to grab Captain America's shield and proceed to greet the cast but also the audience that has been waiting for him to show up.
-->'''Spider-Man:''' Hey, everyone.
* LeeroyJenkins: His blind impulsiveness and tendency to jump right into situations without any real planning or idea of how he's going to finish what he started or adapt to setbacks is a major weakness of his and leads to his making one mistake after another. [[JustifiedTrope It's justified]] in that he's in his mid-teens and is simply acting his age.
* LetsGetDangerous: Peter drops his usual giddy and excitable approach to fighting in the FinalBattle against Mysterio when the villain targets his friends. His expression becomes grim and serious when taking down his foe.
* LightningBruiser: Tough, durable, strong, agile, and fast enough to run rings around everyone during the airport fight, talking all the while and not even close to getting out of breath. The only thing that manages to hurt him is a punch from the giant Ant-Man, who could crush and overpower the Iron Man armor.
* LikeASonToMe: He has this dynamic with Tony Stark who Peter looks up to as a father figure, mentoring him in the way of a superhero.
* LittleStowaway: In ''Infinity War'', Tony Stark refers to him as this (being the youngest and least experienced member of our heroes) on finding he's also hidden on the spacecraft taking them to Thanos, after Tony supposedly sent him back to Earth because he thought it was a SuicideMission.
* LockedOutOfTheLoop: According to Peter himself, the only background to the airport fight Stark told him about is that Cap is wrong, but he thinks he's right. Cap even {{lampshade|Hanging}}s this and tells him that there's more going on than he thinks. Unfortunately, Stark also told Spidey that Cap would say that. A flashback in ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'' goes deeper and shows that the only thing Peter was actually told was that [[BlatantLies Captain America has gone crazy]] and needed to be stopped.
* TheManMakesTheWeapon: Discussed. Peter protests when Tony tries to take away his suit, stating he was nothing without it. Tony then chides that if he was nothing without the suit then he shouldn't have it to begin with. Peter then is made aware of an emergency only he can stop, and deals with it without the high-tech suit Tony made him, proving he was indeed the one who was of more value than the suit.
* ManOfKryptonite: [[spoiler:After mastering his SpiderSense, he becomes this to Mysterio himself. Rather befitting, given that Mysterio's abilities depend on playing with one's ''normal'' senses. This is shown in the final battle: Mysterio creates a [[CastingAShadow shroud of darkness]] to blind Spidey's vision and then has his drones open fire on him. This does ''nothing'' to Spidey, who dodges all the gunfire without an issue as he closes in on him and wins.]]
* TheMasqueradeWillKillYourDatingLife: He ditches Liz at the homecoming dance in order to stop Vulture, who also happens to be her father, permanently ending his relationship with her. Averted with MJ however, who is very involved with his work as Spider-Man.
* MentorsNewHope: Considering what Tony has been through around the time he meets Peter, it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to believe that mentoring Peter may be the one thing that has kept him from going back to resolving his sorrows in less appealing and constructive ways. He even tells Peter that he wants him to be a far better hero than he ever was without his track record of mistakes.
* MinorMajorCharacter: While he has made a name for himself as the unofficial protector of Queens InUniverse and has a fair amount of screen time in ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'', he has no real impact in the plot itself. His presence is meant to properly introduce him into the MCU and set up his appearances in future films, including his own trilogy, where he ''does'' play a major role.
* MirrorCharacter: [[spoiler:To Loki and He Who Remains from ''Series/Loki2021'' along with his variants from the Raimi and Webb universes. He Who Remains created the Sacred Timeline and Time Variance Authority to end the Multiversal War between all his variants, while Loki got to see first hand how quickly his variants would turn against each other. However Peter immediately bonded with Peter-2 and Peter-3, and his experiences with them helped him remain a hero and not give into rage and despair after May's death.]]
* MoralityPet: While Tony becomes a ParentalSubstitute for him in ''Homecoming'', Peter becomes this for him in a LittleBrotherIsWatching kind of way. He doesn't want Peter emulating his bad behavior and part of that is not behaving badly to begin with. In ''Endgame'', Tony stares at a picture of him and Peter together as if to show remorse for letting him die. Furthermore, it's implied that the desire to bring Peter back to life is what motivates Tony to work out the time travel plan.
* MortalityPhobia: Peter suitably freaks out as he's being erased by Thanos's use of the Infinity Gauntlet.
* MotiveDecay: Zig-zagged. His character arc during ''Homecoming'' has him chasing after a spot on the Avengers roster and gradually losing touch with his original mission of protecting the normal everyday citizens of New York. By the end of the movie, he decides that that's what he's best-suited for. He changes his mind again in ''Avengers: Infinity War'', but only because the planet is dealing with an alien invasion at the time, and that there's no sense protecting New York City if the planet gets destroyed. However, after saving the universe from Thanos and losing Tony, Peter opts to be the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man once again, finding the stress of being an Avengers-level hero to be too much. [[Film/SpiderManFarFromHome Unfortunately, Nick Fury has other plans...]]
* MotorMouth: Much like his mentor Tony Stark, he ''does not shut up.''
* MrFanservice:
** In his first solo film ''Homecoming''. He may be a kid, but his actor is ''[[DawsonCasting not]]'' and his lean physique is showcased twice, getting in and out of the suit.
** Peter's abs are also shown off briefly in ''Far From Home'' [[spoiler:as he's changing into his suit and [[FemaleGaze MJ tries to avoid the temptation to take a peek]].]]
** By ''No Way Home'', he has noticeably bulked up, both in the torso and the chest.
* MundaneUtility: He uses his webs to make hammocks in the promotional materials of ''Spider-Man: Homecoming''. In the film itself, he can briefly be seen using his webs to make a jump rope.
* MySisterIsOffLimits: Downplayed, he's shown to be irritated by his aunt's many admirers. Even responding with outright confusion when Happy Hogan compliments her dress.
* MythologyGag:
** Peter being recruited into the pro-registration side after six months of superheroing has shades of his ''[[WesternAnimation/UltimateSpiderMan2012 Ultimate Spider-Man]]'' cartoon self, who was recruited into S.H.I.E.L.D. after having been active on his own for a year. Both versions are also fans of the older superheroes, particularly Iron Man and Cap.
** He sports wings under his suit's arms, much like how he was drawn in his first appearance by Creator/SteveDitko. The wings also allow him to glide, which was not part of his original set of powers, but of [[ComicBook/SpiderWoman2014 Jessica Drew]] and [[ComicBook/SpiderMan2099 Miguel O'Hara]]. In comics, Spidey also received a special suit from Iron Man that had the potential to glide with wings (although that suit was made with Iron Man's colors and nicknamed the Iron Spider suit).
** Peter's Prototype uniform has a mixture of the Scarlet Spider's hoodie costume with a mask designed similar to ComicBook/SpiderManNoir's goggles.
** The Iron Spider's color scheme greatly resembles the ComicBook/SuperiorSpiderMan suit.
** Spider-Man was one of the founding members of the New Avengers, which he gets inducted into during ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar''.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:N-S]]
* NaiveNewcomer: In ''Civil War'', he knows next to nothing about the conflict he's been brought in to help end and just wants to make sure that nobody gets hurt. It's entirely possible that he would have sided with Captain America if he'd been more well-informed.
* {{Nephewism}}: His aunt raises him instead of his parents, who are not mentioned.
* NerdActionHero: A sci-fi loving nerd who is able to bench press a car and go toe-to-toe with most of the Avengers and even battle Thanos.
* NerdsAreSexy: He's a handsome, muscular geek.
* NeverMyFault: Played for laughs in ''Infinity War'' where he tells Tony it's technically his fault he went to outer space with him, despite making the choice himself, infuriating Tony.
* NiceGuy: He's a warm and good-natured person who ultimately wants to make the world safer with his powers. [[TheHeart Captain America]] even thinks he's a good kid in spite of being pitted against him. Even [[TheStoic Doctor Strange]], while annoyed by him every once in a while, admires his kindness and compassion, [[spoiler:especially after Peter insists he erases him from everybody's memories to save the multiverse.]]
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: He's Spider-Man, this is a pretty common occurrence for him in most media.
** In ''Far From Home'', [[spoiler:he foolishly gives the EDITH glasses over to Beck after seeing him supposedly perform a HeroicSacrifice to take down an Elemental which would've destroyed the world. This is combined with lingering SurvivorGuilt over Tony's death and feeling overwhelmed at the prospect of shouldering the legacy of Iron Man. Turns out it's just Beck deftly manipulating him using his bleeding edge holographic technology in his bid to become a FakeUltimateHero and very nearly gets him and his friends killed. Even then it creates lasting consequences for him going into ''No Way Home'' as it leads to Beck posthumously framing him for his "murder" and exposing Spider-Man's secret identity as Peter Parker.]]
** Screws up Strange's [[LaserGuidedAmnesia memory-wiping spell]] in ''No Way Home'' with his nervous chattering over the consequences and brings in extremely dangerous villains from other universes as a result.
* NoBodyLeftBehind: He is disintegrated along with half the universe after Thanos completes the Infinity Gauntlet.
* NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: In ''No Way Home'', Peter initially planned to just send the displaced villains home, as he felt like they weren't his responsibility. However, after being convinced by Aunt May and learning the villains are going to die, he has a change of heart and genuinely tries to help them. [[spoiler:This sets off a chain of events that leads to his Aunt May being killed, '''everyone''' in the MCU forgetting who he is, including his best friend and girlfriend, and being forced to drop out of high school to pursue a GED in New York while the former two go off to MIT in Boston.]] The trope name is even quoted by [[spoiler:the Goblin when he reveals himself.]]
* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: [[spoiler:After previously being on the receiving end of a beatdown from Electro, the Lizard, and the Green Goblin, Peter ''wipes the floor'' with Osborn after the latter murders Aunt May, and [[IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim has to be stopped from finishing him off]] by Raimi-Spider-Man.]]
* NonchalantDodge: Casually moves his head to avoid a robber trying to repeatedly punch him. While hanging upside down from the ceiling.
* NormalFishInATinyPond: Although Peter is definitely stronger than a street-level hero, his power is overshadowed by guys like Iron Man, Hulk, Thor and Doctor Strange. In fact, Peter's goal during ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'' is to stop being in the small pond (street level), and join the big pond (The Avengers), even when Iron Man tells him he's not ready. This gets turned on its head in ''Far From Home''; Peter at this point has much more experience and his powers have matured greatly, but he himself would prefer to stay a small neighborhood hero, despite Nick Fury [[spoiler:(actually Talos)]] insisting that he ''is'' ready to join the big leagues.
* NotInThisForYourRevolution: He doesn't seem to care about the issues for the Sokovia Accords in ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'' even though his existence and activity (i.e. an independent superhero acting without government oversight) clearly violates it. He only joins Iron Man's team [[BecauseYouWereNiceToMe because Tony Stark]], a [[HeroWorshipper personal hero of his]], just showed up at his house and asked for his help.
* NotSoDifferentRemark:
** Although they're on different sides, Cap is pleasantly surprised that both he and Peter are good-hearted people from New York who fight for the little guy.
--->'''Captain America:''' You got heart, kid. Where you from?\\
'''Spider-Man:''' Queens!\\
'''Captain America:''' ''[smiles]'' Brooklyn.
** He and Toomes both come from working-class backgrounds, are scientifically minded and started their careers with reasonable goals only to suffer MotiveDecay. The difference is that Peter gets over his.
--->'''Toomes:''' Those people, Pete, those people up there, the rich and the powerful, they do whatever they want. Guys like us, like you and me... they don't care about us. We build their roads and we fight all their wars and everything. They don't care about us. We have to pick up after them. We have to eat their table scraps. That's how it is. I know you know what I'm talking about, Peter.
* ObliviousToLove: In ''Homecoming'' due to his crush on Liz he is unaware of MJ's feelings for him. By the beginning of ''Far From Home'', while he is finally putting it together that she likes him, he's been unaware that MJ has liked him for quite some time and well before he developed his feelings for her.
* OfficialCouple: By the end of ''Far From Home'', [[spoiler:he's with MJ.]] [[spoiler: 'Till the events of ''No Way Home'', as MJ's memories of Peter are wiped alongside the universe's. He chooses not to reconnect with her for the time being despite still loving her.]]
* OhCrap: Several:
** Has a massive one in TheStinger of ''Far From Home'' when [[spoiler:Mysterio frames him for his own death and publicly reveals his secret identity.]]
--->'''Spider-Man:''' WHAT THE [[CurseCutShort FU-]]
** It's subtle, but in ''No Way Home'', his reaction to [[spoiler:Green Goblin getting up like nothing happened and throwing him through a window after Peter had just stomped him through a concrete deck]] indicates that he has finally realized just how badly he underestimated [[spoiler:Goblin]] and how dire his situation truly is.
* OlderThanTheyLook: On a technicality, due to [[spoiler:being a resurrected victim of Thanos's snap. He was 16 at the time of his death, and he remained dead for five years. After being brought back from the dead could technically make him 21, but he's still biologically 16 due to being resurrected as he was, his body hasn't aged.]]
* OneManArmy: He's become this by the final act of ''Far From Home''. [[spoiler:It's him, by himself, against an army of advanced aerial drones armed with machine guns. Spidey wins.]]
* OOCIsSeriousBusiness:
** He was adamant over Karen not using her Instant-Kill Mode, firmly stating he doesn't want to kill anyone. But in ''Endgame'', he directly orders her to switch to said mode without any hesitation whatsoever.
** In most of his fights, Spider-Man will make small talk with his opponents and allies or comment on some interesting new development that's popped up. [[spoiler:In the final showdown in ''Far From Home'', he's angrier than he's ever been and takes on Mysterio and his drone army in almost complete silence.]]
** At the end of ''No Way Home'', [[spoiler:he is ''livid'' at Green Goblin for killing Aunt May that he unleashes a fierce pummeling and is ready to skewer Goblin with his own Goblin Glider]].
* OohMeAccentsSlipping: While Peter is American, his actor, Tom Holland, is British.
** After swiping Captain America's shield in ''Civil War'', you can hear Tom Holland's natural British accent, especially noticeable in the way he pronounces the "a" in "fan".
** Tom's British accent slips through in ''Infinity War'' as well, specifically the line "It never was" during his introduction to Peter Quill.
* OpenSecret: Peter is remarkably careless with his secret identity despite being one of the few heroes trying to maintain one. He gets caught multiple times by his friends and family and he introduces himself by his real name to everyone in the superhero community. [[spoiler:This proves to be a problem when he trusts an extremely unscrupulous person with his name, and that person later reveals his identity to the world, ruining his reputation and likely his life.]]
* OrdinaryHighSchoolStudent: Peter is still in school while acting as a superhero. He initially tells Stark he can't go to Germany because he has homework.
-->'''Tony:''' ...I'm gonna pretend you didn't say that.
* OutOfFocus: While Uncle Ben is indicated to be a crucial part of his motivation for becoming a superhero through various indirect elements hinting at his influence on Peter and May's lives, he's surprisingly not directly mentioned ''once'' by either of them in Peter's first six film appearances, although [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatResponsibility it's clear that he learned the crucial lesson that he was supposed to from what happened]]. [[spoiler:This approach is in part because May ''also'' fulfills this role in the MCU's version of the story, down to being the one who actually tells Peter the iconic words before dying.]] The first official confirmation on Uncle Ben's presence in the MCU actually came in ''WesternAnimation/WhatIf2021'', in an alternate timeline, with later mentions of Ben being from [[spoiler:Tobey and Andrew's Spider-Men.]]
* OutsideTheBoxTactic: Peter excels at this, mainly because he's an inexperienced teenager who constantly looks at things from a fresh perspective, and like any teenager, if there's an easy way to do something, he'll take it:
** ''Civil War'': When Ant-Man grows sixty feet tall and is giving Tony's people a lot of trouble, he takes a hint from ''The Empire Strikes Back'' and cuts his legs out from under him, which gives the rest of Tony's team the opening they need to take him out of the fight.
** ''Infinity War'': Against Ebony Maw, when Tony and Stephen are trying to plan a direct assault, Peter comes up with the idea to simply punch a hole through the spaceship and let Ebony Maw get sucked outside. The idea ''works'', and Ebony Maw is killed pretty quickly. Unlike his comic book counterpart, this Spider-Man has no problem with that, mainly because he understands how desperate their situation will become if Thanos gets his hands on all the Infinity Stones.
** ''No Way Home'': While fighting Doctor Strange in the Mirror Dimension, Peter gets the upper hand when he realizes that the patterns follow certain geometric rules, [[spoiler:which allows him to web up his much more powerful opponent and win the fight using the power of math]].
* PassingTheTorch: ''Far From Home'' directly sets Spider-Man up as being the successor to Iron Man as the most central and important heroic figure on Earth, and (less directly) the next Captain America as the virtuous [[TheHeart Heart]] of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The movie ends with Spidey officially stepping up as one of Earth's Mightiest Heroes, and he even [[spoiler:has his own "I am Iron Man" moment... albeit, without his consent.]]
* PhraseCatcher: Before he saves an elevator full of people at the Washington Monument, he's primarily known as Spider-Man "from [=YouTube=]."
* PintSizedPowerhouse: He's physically the smallest hero during the Avengers Civil War (if you don’t count Rhodey, who's a centimetre shorter without his PoweredArmor and Natasha and Wanda), but has the most raw strength of anyone on the battlefield. This is further proven when he went toe-to-toe with every anti-registration hero in a physical fight (though his inexperience ''does'' show in one-on-one fights, as Cap demonstrated). It takes a solid hit from Giant-Man to knock him out. Peter is also notably one of the few MCU male superheroes to be ''visibly'' shorter than the leading ladies, and that includes both his love interests (namely Liz and MJ).
* PleaseWakeUp:
** In ''Endgame'', he doesn't immediately catch on that using the Infinity Gauntlet has drained the life out of Tony Stark. It also marks the first and only time he calls Tony by his first name instead of "Mr. Stark".
** And again towards Mysterio in ''Far from Home'', although he doesn't die.
** [[spoiler:He does this after Aunt May dies in ''No Way Home''.]]
* PluckyComicRelief: Since he has little investment in the Civil War between the Avengers, he plays a more lighthearted, comedic role than the other characters involved in the fight.
* PopCulturalOsmosisFailure: For all his love of movies that are decades older than he is, he confuses Music/{{ACDC}} with Music/LedZeppelin when he hears "Back in Black".
* PopCulturedBadass: He's seen a lot of popular movies, even ones from before he was born, and uses his knowledge of them to come up with plans to defeat his foes that always work.
* PrecisionFStrike:
** When Ant-Man enlarges into Giant-Man, Spider-Man vocalizes what the audience is thinking:
--->'''Spider-Man: '''HOLY '''SHIT'''!
** A more literal and dark example as [[spoiler:Mysterio's dying message publicly blows Peter Parker's secret identity wide open on Broadway's 42nd Street Megavision, ''and'' frames him as said conman's murderer.]] The eyes on Peter Parker's ''actual mask'' widen in stupefied disbelief.
--->'''Spider-Man:''' [[CurseCutShort WHAT THE FU-?!]]
* ProjectileWebbing: He can fire these through the use of a synthetic substance and a pair of wrist-worn mechanical devices he both developed.
* PunchCatch: Easily catches Bucky's metal arm and gently pulls it back while geeking out over how cool it is.
* PunchPunchPunchUhOh: [[spoiler:He seemingly manages to pin the Goblin against a wall in their first fight and pummels him, only for the Goblin to grin maniacally and slam him straight through a concrete floor.]] It's clear that, at best, Peter managed to momentarily catch him off-guard, and at worst, the [[spoiler:Goblin]] deliberately gave him a HopeSpot.
* RaceFetish: Coincidentally or not, both of Peter's crushes are black/black-ish. Liz is mixed while MJ's lineage is uncertain, but her actress is mixed as well.
* RageBreakingPoint: [[spoiler: After the Goblin murdered his Aunt May, Peter gave up on saving the villains and wanted Norman in particular dead. Raimi Peter manages to talk him down from the brink, but later on in the final battle, the Goblin deliberately interferes with his attempt to save MJ from a fatal drop, and if it hadn't been for Webb Peter, she would have died.]] At this point, all bets are off, and Peter does his absolute damndest to [[spoiler: [[CurbStompBattle mercilessly bloody and beat the Goblin within an inch of his life]], before trying to execute him with his own glider.]]
* TheRedeemer: [[spoiler:''No Way Home'' ends with him curing and redeeming all the villains with help from his counterparts, and this is actually a trait they share with him as they never voice any disagreements with this plan.]]
* RedIsHeroic: Red is his signature color. Given how, in the MCU, Peter sees Iron Man as a role model, it is possible that he designed his own suit to emulate Tony's.
* RefusalOfTheCall:
** Evidently averted, as in this continuity, he never seemed to have any problem with helping out other people with his powers. That being said, ''[[NoodleIncident something]]'' [[DeathByOriginStory clearly happened to Uncle Ben]] that caused him to take his job a lot more seriously, as evidenced by his conversation with Tony Stark in ''Civil War''.
** At the end of ''Homecoming'', he turns down Tony's offer to join the Avengers because he thinks he should stay grounded a little longer to look out for the little guy.
** ''Literally'' in ''Far From Home'' as he sends a call from Nick Fury himself to voicemail.
* RememberTheNewGuy: [[spoiler:From the view of characters from the ''Film/SonysSpiderManUniverse'' at least. Venom senses some familiarity with Spider-Man upon seeing him on TV when he and Eddie Brock are transported into the MCU during the mid-credits scene of ''Film/VenomLetThereBeCarnage''. This is because Venom most likely "remembers" Spider-Man being Peter Parker when he accessed the symbiote's Hive Mind that spans across the Multiverse, including his counterpart from the Raimi-Verse]].
* RookieRedRanger: Despite being the youngest and least experienced of [[spoiler:the three Spider-Men who appear in ''No Way Home'', he calls the shots during the battle at the Statue of Liberty. It's {{Justified|Trope}} because he's the only one who has any experience fighting as part of a team, whereas the other two have always [[IWorkAlone worked alone]]; after all, he was an Avenger, whereas the Avengers don't even exist in their home universes]].
* SacrificialLion: Not counting Maria Hill and Nick Fury's demises in the post-credits scene, Peter is the last major character to die by Thanos's fingersnap, and by far the most iconic character to be killed off in ''Avengers: Infinity War''. He gets better.
* SaveTheVillain:
** He rescues Adrian Toomes from his malfunctioning wings in ''Homecoming''.
** In ''No Way Home'', after learning all the universe-displaced villains are fated to die fighting their worlds' Spider-Men, he attempts to return them to their human selves so they won't have to suffer that fate. [[spoiler:He ultimately succeeds, though he initially attempts to kill the Green Goblin for the murder of Aunt May]].
* SavvyGuyEnergeticGirl: GenderInverted. He serves as the BadassAdorable AllLovingHero Energetic Guy to Michelle's DeadpanSnarker {{Bookworm}} Savvy Girl.
* SecretIdentity: One of the few characters in the setting to have one and actively maintain it. He turns his web shooters on Tony in his own bedroom when the possibility of Tony outing him comes up. He has a bad habit of accidentally letting people close to him know his secret, as both Ned and Aunt May learn the truth [[FailedASpotCheck because he wasn't mindful of his Spider-Sense]]. [[spoiler:Mysterio ends up revealing it to the world.]]
* SecretIdentityIdentity: In ''No Way Home'', Doctor Strange criticizes Peter for trying to keep two different lives rather than sacrificing one over the other. The rest of the film has Peter conflicted over whether he should focus on his own private life or help others in need despite the possibility they may further jeopardize his life as Peter Parker. [[spoiler:In the end, he sacrifices the very memory of Peter Parker to save the world, essentially erasing his civilian identity from existence, leaving only Spider-Man behind]].
* SecretKeeper: In ''Spider-Man: Far From Home'', [[spoiler:he lies about Captain America’s survival to allow the elderly Steve Rogers to retire, knowing that he was alive and present at Tony Stark's funeral.]]
* SecretTestOfCharacter: Assumes this at the end of ''Homecoming'' when Tony presents him with a seat on the Avengers and a brand new upgraded suit, saying a room full of reporters are in the other room waiting for the Spider-Man announcement. Peter, who just went through a HumiliationConga of learning what it means to be Spider-Man in his massively inexperienced state, politely declines while claiming this trope, opting to instead "stay on the ground" like Tony wanted him to do all along. Tony for his part [[SureLetsGoWithThat rolls with it.]] Then Peter leaves, and Pepper walks in from the reporter-filled room to ask where he was, showing Tony was absolutely serious and ''totally botched a legitimate recruitment attempt''.
* SensoryOverload: His Spider-Sense [[BlessedWithSuck is a bit of a problem in this version]]. While he does have a greater sense of awareness that allows him to have better reflexes, it comes at the cost of being overwhelmed with the awareness of ''everything'' around him during battle. His first costume incorporates welding goggles (which Tony is shocked he can even see out of since he himself couldn't) because they minimize visual stimuli to a level where he can focus. His new suit incorporates mechanical irises so that he can adjust how much he sees as needed.
* ShooOutTheClowns: After the big fight at the airport in ''Civil War'', Tony tells him to go back home for his own safety and even threatens to tell Aunt May if he doesn't. This itself happens before the dramatic final act. It's {{justified|Trope}} given how nearly fatal the battle went in the case of Rhodey.
* SingleGuySeeksMostPopularGirl: Liz Allan is a senior involved with many clubs and is much sought after, and also the object of Peter's affection in ''Homecoming''.
* SirNotAppearingInThisTrailer: In ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'', due to contractual issues between Marvel Studios and Sony:
** He's completely absent from the trailer and was even edited out of several shots such as the scene of two sides running at each other. He is in that scene in the film proper.
** The poster designed for use in theaters and concession products has all of the heroes but Spider-Man and Ant-Man.
** He was absent from pretty much all of the other promotional material for the film, which includes toy lines and promotional images and even the official home releases' covers.
* SkilledButNaive:
** He's really good when it comes to making [[IndyPloy improvised plans]] to beat seemingly unbeatable foes, but his lack of experience still hampers him. Best shown when he, Tony, and Rhodey defeat Giant-Man; Peter comes up with the plan to web up Scott's legs and flawlessly sets him up to be knocked down by Tony and Rhodey, but he fails to notice the falling Scott's flailing limbs and thus gets knocked out by one of them.
** He's also as befitting an innocent kid, extremely trusting of everyone he meets. He went to Germany on Tony's request without question, taking his non-explanation at face value. He's also incredibly careless with his secret identity, revealing it to his closest friends and the entire superhero community. In ''Film/SpiderManFarFromHome'', both tendencies [[spoiler:get exploited by Mysterio who uses his tendency to trust heroes to fool him into handing over E.D.I.T.H. and his carelessness with his identity gets it revealed to the entire world.]]
** In ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome'', after learning that some of the villains brought from the Multiverse are fated to die if they are returned as they are, [[spoiler:Peter ends up defying Doctor Strange's attempt to send them back and opts to find a way to cure the villains to potentially change their fates for the better once they return to their own universes (which he ''does'' have the ability to pull off, as shown when he successfully freed Otto of his tentacles' control). This proves to have dire consequences when some villains like Green Goblin, the Lizard, and Electro don't ''want'' to be saved and go rogue to cause further destruction, which directly leads to Aunt May's death and Peter Parker being erased from the memories of everyone he knows.]]
* SlasherSmile: Peter [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness of all people]] flashes one when [[spoiler:he stuffs one of Green Goblin's Pumpkin Bombs in his glider in revenge for Goblin stopping him from saving MJ]].
* SmartPeoplePlayChess: There's a chess set set up (and seemingly in progress) on a table in his bedroom in ''Civil War''.
* SociallyAwkwardHero: True to form, he's a shy kid who doesn't have a very large social circle and struggles with trying to fit in and impress the girl he has a crush on.
* SorryThatImDying: In ''Infinity War'', his dying words to Tony Stark are "I'm sorry".
* SpiderLimbs: The Iron Spider suit has these. They're mostly used for support rather than for actual combat in ''Infinity War'', but in ''Endgame'' they're shown to be utterly deadly when the armor is in "Instant Kill Mode", skewering Thanos's monstrous soldiers.
* SpiderSense:
** Appears briefly, catching a web cylinder Tony threw at him without even glancing at him, sensing a piece of debris Bucky throws at him from behind without looking, then tossing it right back at Bucky, and just before Ant-Man attacks him to take back the Cap's shield, he can tell something's wrong. It doesn't work nearly as much as it should, and Spidey is surprised several times during his fights. Potentially justified as he notes that his abilities make it difficult to focus at times, which is why he needed the goggles, and he's still not used to the new suit.
** As in the source material, it primarily warns him of ''threats'' or people ''intending'' to harm him -- not, say, his best friend Ned Leeds being in his room, or Aunt May seeing him suit up nearby. [[Film/SpiderManFarFromHome Peter cannot even sense Nick Fury's presence in his room until Ned was hit with a tranquilizer dart. This makes sense as Nick has no intention of harming him, only wanting to talk.]]
** The trailer for ''Infinity War'' shows Peter riding a bus when his hairs suddenly stand on end. Cue the sinister-looking spaceship hovering over New York.
** A very dark example appears in ''Infinity War''. Unlike the other dusted heroes, Peter can sense that something very bad is about to happen to him, even telling Tony that he doesn't feel so good and becomes utterly ''terrified'' when he realizes what that sick feeling actually means.
** A recurring element in ''Far From Home'' is the somewhat finicky nature of this ability, which Aunt May has dubbed "the Peter tingle". As she observes, he can dodge bullets, but not a banana she playfully tosses at him. [[spoiler:By the movie's climax, Peter has a solid enough grip on it to recognize Mysterio's illusions for what they are.]]
** ''No Way Home'' features it from his perspective. While working on a MacGuffin in Happy's apartment, his world gets hazy and he begins to hear a hum that increases the closer he is to danger, as he looks to make sure May is safe. [[spoiler:Finally, he turns around and webs Osborn, whom his Goblin personality has taken over.]]
* StrongAndSkilled: By ''Far From Home'', Spidey has become a legitimate OneManArmy who can take on countless drones, see through illusions through his SpiderSense, and take on threats that would've decimated him before, all by himself. Really, ''Far From Home'' tells his journey from being an inexperienced hero to a true successor to Iron Man.
* StockShonenHero: Most Spideys fall under this trope, but this one pretty much fits it to a T. He has a very clear sense of [[BlackAndWhiteMorality justice]], [[IdealHero moral integrity]], unwavering [[TheDeterminator true-grit]], and is [[FunPersonified fun-loving]]. While he's not exactly dumb, he has a problem with jumping to conclusions, putting too much faith in people, and [[DidntThinkThisThrough not looking before he leaps]]. However, he makes up for whatever short-comings he faces with an [[TheGift incredible aptitude]] for improvisation and adaptability, and he's well on his way towards being the [[ToBeAMaster best superhero of his generation]].
* {{Superhero}}: The TropeCodifier for all teenage superheroes. A teenage rookie who is just learning the basics of the superhero work.
* SuperheroOrigin: The whole thing about power, responsibility, and indirectly causing his uncle's death through inaction still happened, but it happened offscreen, though it is indirectly referenced multiple times. Between ''Captain America: Civil War'' and ''Avengers: Endgame'', Ben Parker is not even mentioned by name. The filmmakers behind the franchise explained that, with [[Film/SpiderManTrilogy two prior]] [[Film/TheAmazingSpiderManSeries film continuities]] showing the origin, showing it for the third time in ''Spider-Man: Homecoming'' would be redundant. [[spoiler:''No Way Home'' reveals that his trilogy is a unique adaptation of his origin for the MCU, as while Ben does exist and serve some role in him being Spider-Man, Peter doesn't truly learn the lesson "with great power there must also come great responsibility" until May's death. With people's memory of Peter Parker now erased, he loses the allies he had and his advanced tech, forcing him back into the WorkingClassHero he is in the comics and having Jameson doing everything he can to make the city hate him.]]
* SuperLoser: Being Spider-Man does not prevent him from being a dweeby, rather unpopular teen at school.
* SuperReflexes: He's more than agile enough to avoid the gunfire of Mysterio's weaponized drones.
* SuperSpeed: While not a speedster like, say, Quicksilver, Peter can move around the battlefield beyond most Avengers' ability to keep up. In spite of only being a fifteen at the time of ''Civil War'', he's already able to outrun the Olympic-level Black Widow without much trouble.
* SuperStrength: Spider-Man is incredibly powerful in spite of his young age (rivaling Captain America and Bucky's abilities in most situations, but greatly exceeding them in moments of great distress, such as when he lifted the rubble of a collapsed building off of himself). As demonstrated in ''Captain America: Civil War'', he has stopped a 3000-pound car at a speed of 40 mph dead in its tracks by mere strength (which is what brought him to Iron Man's attention). He can easily catch one of the Winter Soldier's punches, and is more [[TheKnightsWhoSaySquee giddy]] about being punched with a metal arm than actually bothering to put effort into blocking it. In ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome'' when he ceases to hold back at all a single enraged punch from him is able to leave a huge dent in a gigantic metal shield he is standing on, the sound of the impact resounding as if something much larger than him had hit it.
* SuperToughness: Peter's resistance is fully superhuman.
** Already hinted in ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'', where he takes a ShieldBash to the face from Captain America, a blow that would have certainly concussed an ordinary human. He's also swatted aside by Giant-Man into a bunch of crates and survive with little more than a few superficial bruises.
** Becomes very obvious in ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'': The amount of punishment Spider-Man endures through the movie would easily kill an ordinary human, and even badly maim a SuperSoldier. Notably, he gets bounced up and down by an Anti-Gravity gun, dragged behind a van and repeatedly slammed against trashcans and brick walls, supports the full weight of two halves of a ferry for a few seconds without his arms tearing off, is slammed into -- and then through -- a bus by the Shocker, is buried under a whole warehouse crumbling into him, and then survives a plane crash followed by a thorough beating from the Vulture, without even having to go to the hospital afterward. The suit Tony provided Peter with also counts, as it takes all the same abuse and doesn't have so much as a scratch, or even any of its features disabled.
** In ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'', he's shown functioning at high altitudes with little in the way of protection, with only some difficulty. He also takes hits from Thanos himself and still stands, despite the Mad Titan beating up the Hulk himself (justified somewhat, given that he's wearing the Iron Spider armor). It's implied he was the last of the group on Titan to die because his body was simply so durable that the Snap took longer to work on him.
** Once again demonstrated in ''Film/SpiderManFarFromHome'': Spider-Man survives injuries and accidents, which while painful, is far above ordinary human capability and would be fatal to any human being, such as bonking his head multiple times against an iron bell or surviving the impact of a high speed rail at full speed. On both occasions, he's still conscious and not too worse for wear (admittedly passing out after getting to safety from the train impact) while recovering and healing quickly.
** In ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome'', a severe beating from the Green Goblin that sent him through multiple walls and stories of a building, repeatedly, leaves him with broken ribs but he's still able to escape the scene and is healed in time for the final battle.
* SurvivorGuilt: After the events of ''Endgame'', Peter is still grieving Tony's death as of ''Far From Home'', and while he wants to be the new hero the people needs, he's not sure if he can even live up to the legacy that Tony left behind.
* SurvivalMantra:
** Peter starts chanting to himself in order to lift the heavy debris he was buried under by Vulture.
--->'''Peter:''' Come on, Peter. Come on, Spider-Man! Come on, Spider-Man!
** A much darker example happens in ''Infinity War'', when Peter realizes that he’s crumbling to ash and, understandably, is [[MortalityPhobia absolutely terrified]].
--->'''Peter:''' I-I don't know what's happening. I don't wanna go. I don't wanna go. Mister Stark, please! Please, I don't wanna go! I don't wanna go... I'm sorry...
* SweetAndSourGrapes:
** His character arc in ''Homecoming''. After believing himself to be unworthy of superheroics without the Stark suit, Peter manages to successfully stop the Vulture with his original outfit, armed with nothing but his web-shooters, and learns that heroism comes from within. Then Tony Stark gives him back the suit he made for Spider-Man anyway.
** In ''Homecoming'', he learns the value of being a hero on a local level and that it might be in his best interest to not join the Avengers for a while. Then in ''Infinity War'', he gets caught up in the midst of an attack on New York -- which he plans to defend on a local level, but finds himself in an alien spacecraft. He's stoked when Tony dubs him an Avenger anyway.
* SwissArmySuperpower:
** [[AllWebbedUp Webbing]] is an extremely useful power that has countless applications. So far Spidey has used it to swing, incapacitate, snag objects or enemies, and trip others.
** Once Tony Stark got his hands on Peter's webbing the possibilities became almost literally endless, and packed his suit with ''576'' possible webbing combinations[[note]]That is, 24 on each hand, which is still plenty.[[/note]] including web-grenades, ricochet webs, spinner webs, super-long shot webs and much, ''much'' more.
[[/folder]]
[[folder:T-Y]]
* TacticalWithdrawal:
** In ''Civil War'', Tony forces this on Peter after he's injured fighting Giant-Man. Tony makes sure to say that this is not a "you screwed up", but that he's done his job, now it's time to head back home.
** Tony later attempts to invoke this on Peter in ''Infinity War'' by activating a parachute after ensuring that he's safe inside the Iron Spider suit. It doesn't work, as Peter is able to stick to the Q-Ship anyway.
* TagAlongKid:
** He's a teenager, while the other heroes are all full-grown adults (the youngest of them being Scarlet Witch, who is in her mid-20s; while Vision, although barely a year old chronologically, was never a "kid").
--->'''Rhodey:''' [[WhatTheHellHero Jesus, Tony, how old is this guy?]]\\
'''Tony:''' I don't know, I didn't carbon date him! He's on the young side!
** Also noticeable in ''Infinity War''. In the company of the much older and mature Iron Man and Doctor Strange on their journey to Titan, he basically defaults to being the youngster. Becomes even more pronounced when he fights alongside them as well as Star-Lord, Drax, Mantis and Nebula against Thanos, but is no less badass for it.
* TaughtByExperience: After getting utterly thrashed [[spoiler:by Green Goblin in their first fight, he fights more defensively in their second fight by dodging his attacks so that he doesn't get a chance to overpower him like he did last time.]]
* TechnicalPacifist: He does his very best not to punch or kick normal criminals since with his level of SuperStrength (which can stop a mechanized punch from an experienced killer cyborg, something that Black Panther actually struggled with), he'd probably maim them if he did. He starts throwing some punches and kicks during ''Infinity War'' against Thanos and his Children.
* TeenGenius: Peter at first doesn't quite match up to Tony Stark, Bruce Banner, or Shuri's genius, but at 15-years-old, without any previous exposure to a lab or engineering, he managed to create a formula for his webs (the sophistication of which impressed even ''Tony Stark)'' and make them ''in the middle of chemistry class'' with supplies scrounged from the dumpster and his high school chemistry lab. He also created his own mechanical web shooters, is a surprisingly capable tactician, and programs and builds computers with parts from the trash in his spare time. In addition to this, Peter seems to excel in physics and math, and he actively participates on the Decathlon team; and after only moments of battling Falcon in Germany, he correctly deduced that Sam's wings were made of carbon fiber due to their "flexibility-rigidity ratio". The finale of ''Far From Home'', where Peter builds his own [[MagnumOpus most advanced suit yet]] suggests that Peter ''does'' have what it takes to be compared to the above three, but his ability to cultivate said genius is ordinarily hampered [[WorkingClassHero by a lack of resources.]]
* TeensAreShort: He is a KidHero played by 5'6'-5'7 Creator/TomHolland and is a good bit shorter than the majority of his fellow heroes. Even Tony Stark is made to look several inches taller despite Creator/RobertDowneyJr and Tom being around the same height in real life. He never interacts with the other team mates who are actually shorter than or closer to his height (Creator/ScarlettJohansson, Creator/JeremyRenner, Creator/MarkRuffalo, Creator/ElizabethOlsen, Creator/LetitiaWright).
* TenorBoy: Peter never sings, but his speaking voice is very high-pitched and youthful (this helps Creator/TomHolland, who is OlderThanHeLooks, pass for a 15-year-old).
* ThouShallNotKill: Peter invokes this by refusing to go with any of the Instant-Kill protocols his suit provides him with. He also goes out of his way to save the Vulture's life, rather than allowing him to become a SelfDisposingVillain. However, he doesn't seem to have a problem with killing Ebony Maw, although [[GodzillaThreshold given the circumstances]], one can hardly blame him. He also doesn't mind using that same Instant-Kill mode against Thanos's forces (which, granted, are mindless killing machines) when he's resurrected in ''Endgame''. In ''No Way Home'', he comes close to breaking this rule after [[spoiler:the Green Goblin kills his Aunt May]], and it's only thanks to [[spoiler:the Raimi-Verse Peter's intervention]] that he doesn't go through with it.
* ThreePointLanding: His upgraded costume is introduced with him pulling one off. He thinks he could have done it a bit better.
* TokenMiniMoe: Bet you never thought you'd see this trope associated with him, but here he's the youngest superhero, and both his enthusiasm and fanboyishness make him endearing.
* TooGoodForThisSinfulEarth: Peter's sweet nature, moral integrity and kind heart was not enough for the Infinity Gauntlet to spare him from being painfully erased with a snap of Thanos's fingers for five years.
* TookALevelInBadass:
** By ''Infinity War'', Peter has gotten significantly more adept at using his powers and manages to hold his own against members of the Black Order, and even participates in the group battle against Thanos himself on Titan.
** By ''Far From Home'', Peter has unambiguously become more badass than in ''Homecoming''. Compare the final battle between him and Vulture in ''Homecoming'', where he ''loses'' the actual fight and only "wins" by accident, to the final battle between him and [[spoiler:Mysterio in ''Far From Home'', where Spidey takes down an ''army'' of drones by himself, becomes fully synergized with his SpiderSense, and manages to dodge gunfire while effectively ''blinded'' in terms of sight, before handily defeating him with a single punch and saving the lives of London.]] Really, this was officially marked the moment Spidey made his very own Upgraded suit to the tune of "[[Music/{{ACDC}} Back in Black]]" -- considered ''the'' song to highlight such moments.
** By ''No Way Home'', his fighting ability noticeably improves more as he's forced into more battles against superpowered opponents from across the multiverse who are much more physical and hands-on than the previous villain Mysterio and [[spoiler: towards the end, he fights and beats down the Green Goblin, a physically formidable foe who was able to give the Spider-Man of his own universe a run for his money]].
* TragicDropout: [[spoiler:Thanks to Peter Parker's existence being wiped from everyone's memories in ''No Way Home'''s climax, he's forced to drop out of high school despite being a gifted and intelligent student. He ends up studying for a GED on a lower middle-class budget while living alone in an empty apartment, but still continues being Spider-Man.]]
* TragicHero: Peter is a selfless and loving person who wants to save everyone, [[SaveTheVillain even the bad guys]], but he's constantly marred by misfortune and outright misery. Nowhere is this made clearer than in ''No Way Home'', [[spoiler:as by the end of it all, he's lost his beloved Aunt May, his allies, best friend and girlfriend have no memory of him, and he's forced to drop out of school and live alone in a small apartment. Yet he '''still''' soldiers on as Spider-Man to protect the innocent]].
* TragicKeepsake:
** Following Tony's passing after ''Endgame'', Peter's Stark and Iron Spider suits become this.
** A non-lethal version in ''No Way Home'', where he keeps [[spoiler:Ned's LEGO Palpatine minifigure and the mug MJ gave him to remember their friendship, as neither of them even remembers him existing.]]
* TranquilFury:
** Much like his mentor, Peter is usually constantly babbling and quipping even during fights. [[spoiler:During the final battle against Mysterio, however, he's utterly silent, showing just how angry and serious he is.]]
** Exaggerated in ''No Way Home''. [[spoiler:Before his fight with Green Goblin, Peter simply tells him straight-up that he wants to KILL him in a quiet voice that's laced with more venom than the spider that bit him. Cue the biggest NoHoldsBarredBeatdown he's ever given a villain to date.]]
* TraumaCongaLine:
** [[spoiler:''Far From Home'' becomes this for him. After coming back to life and losing Tony, Peter tries to move on by going on a school trip to Europe. Then he ends up having to go on a mission to save the world from the Elementals, and then he finds out that the hero that he worked with turned out to be a psychopath hell-bent on gaining fame and gets gaslighted by said psychopath. And when he finally defeats him, he ends up being framed for his murder and his identity is exposed. Needless to say, he isn't having a great year.]]
** [[spoiler:''No Way Home'' extends this, notably by starting immediately where ''Far From Home'' ends. To wit, Peter and his friends and family are hounded by the public and authorities, to the point where Peter goes to Dr. Strange to make everyone forget Peter Parker is Spider-Man. However, Peter's unwillingness to have May, MJ, and Ned forget as well causes a disaster that rips a hole in reality. While he's able to fix it, Aunt May is killed by the Green Goblin in the process and the spell ultimately makes everyone forget Peter Parker even ''existed'', including MJ, Ned, and the Avengers. Without any financial support, he's also forced to drop out of high school and get a GED. His trilogy ends with him having almost nothing but his new homemade suit and his unwavering determination to keep being Spider-Man.]]
* TruerToTheText:
** His Stark-made costume in ''Civil War'', ''Homecoming'', and the beginning of ''Infinity War'' is the closest we've yet to seen to Peter's old-school [[ComicBook/TheAmazingSpiderManLeeAndDitko Lee/Ditko look]] in live action. The webbing isn't raised and [[FreezeFrameBonus the spider on his back]] is fat and tick-like instead of a larger and scarier looking version of the chest-logo (as in the Raimi movies).
** This version is closer in profile to the early issues of the Lee/Ditko version as a fifteen-year-old kid just starting his superhero career, as well as the ''ComicBook/UltimateSpiderMan'' comics, which also borrows his YoungerAndHipper Aunt May and the fact that his identity is traced by Iron Man. Lee/Ditko's Spider-Man was pretty good at keeping his identity hidden whereas the RunningGag of Ultimate Spidey is the small number of people who ''don't'' know his secret identity. Also the most MotorMouth version of Spidey seen thus far in live-action.
** Peter is shown brewing the formula for his web shooters in ''Homecoming'', unlike his predecessors.[[note]]The Tobey Maguire version famously had organic webbing, and while the Andrew Garfield version did use web shooters, it is explicitly shown in ''The Amazing Spider Man'' that they use bio-cable purchased from Oscorp, as opposed to a formula Peter developed himself.[[/note]]
** By the end of ''No Way Home'', Peter is closer to the scrappy loner WorkingClassHero he traditionally is thanks to [[spoiler:Aunt May's death and the world forgetting Peter Parker ever existed, cutting off all ties with Stark Industries and the Avengers]]. He even fashions a low-tech red and blue suit with a normal sewing machine.
* TwoFirstNames: '''Peter Benjamin Parker''' so it's three to be exact.
* {{Unperson}}: In ''No Way Home'', [[spoiler:Peter ends up solving the CosmicFlaw he created by having Doctor Strange make the entire world completely forget Peter Parker. Although Spider-Man remains well-known, Peter effectively never existed, costing him his personal life and all his friends, allies, and loved ones]].
* UnresolvedSexualTension:
** There is sexual tension between Peter and MJ in his hotel room in Prague when he realizes he has taken his shirt off with her in the room. Peter asks her to turn around, but MJ can't help but get some peeks. She continues to watch him change until she notices Ned has entered the room.
** [[spoiler: Inverted and PlayedForLaughs in ''Spider-Man: No Way Home'', where Peter and MJ are in his room and she is helping him take off his suit in a panic after his identity was just exposed. Aunt May walks in on MJ undressing Peter and thinks they are having sex. Peter then tries explaining to his aunt this isn't true, but she doesn't believe him.]]
* UnskilledButStrong: His agility, strength, speed, and secondary abilities give him an advantage in most of the encounters he faces, but he's still a teenager with no formal combat training. Anytime an opponent unveils something (technology, ability to fly, element of surprise, tactical fighting, etc) that counters Spidey's strength/agility, he has to struggle to come up with a way to defeat his opponent and often fails. This is the key reason Captain America and Falcon are able to defeat him. He gets over this disadvantage by the end of ''Far From Home''.
* UnwittingPawn: [[spoiler:To Quentin Beck in ''Far From Home'', who just wanted to earn Peter's trust to get access to E.D.I.T.H. and use the system for an EngineeredHeroics scheme.]]
* UseTheirOwnWeaponAgainstThem: He tries to [[spoiler:kill Green Goblin with his own glider in the final battle but is stopped by Raimi-verse Peter because he knows that if he murders the Green Goblin, he will also murder Norman Osborn doesn't deserve to die, and because killing Green Goblin will send him down a dark path.]]
* UtilityBelt: Spider-Man wears one in ''Captain America: Civil War'' for the first time in the character's cinematic history.[[note]]Not counting the movies based on ''The Amazing Spider-Man'' show from the '70s, which were intended for television.[[/note]]
* WallCrawl: As the TropeCodifier, he's able to stick to walls by simply touching them, allowing him to subsequently crawl around on them. Tony assumes at first that he accomplished it with adhesive gloves.
* WeakButSkilled: Only relative to powerhouses like Ant-Man/Giant-Man and Doctor Strange. Peter is way out of their league in raw power, but he makes up for it in smarts and strategy and is able to beat his much more powerful enemies. [[spoiler:In ''No Way Home'', he managed to defeat Doctor Strange while he was in the ''Mirror Dimension'' by harnessing geometry to strategically place his webs to ''trap'' Strange. He was stuck there for 12 hours.]]
* WellDoneSonGuy: Considering that Tony Stark is Peter's mentor/benefactor in the MCU, the fact that Peter wants to prove to Tony that he's ready to join the Avengers can be seen as seeking approval from a parental figure. Tony is apprehensive because he's extremely worried about putting him in danger but also doesn't want to be like his own father (who put Tony through this as well).
* WiseBeyondTheirYears: Zig-zagged. Peter shows a great deal of maturity about this powers, with the beginnings of ComesGreatResponsibility, refusing to use his powers for personal gain and knowing that he should hold back against bullies and criminals. He often makes good points when speaking to Tony Stark in particular. That being said he have childish desires - [[WellDoneSonGuy wanting Tony's approval]] and ignoring a crisis so he can ask MJ out - albeit after having been fooled into believing a more competent hero is handling it. He's also incredibly naïve and trusting as his idealism and optimism hasn't been tested or broken yet. Peter comes across as wise and mature but nevertheless has some growing up to do.
* WorkingClassHero: Zig-Zagged; Peter himself is definitely a working-class citizen and is introduced fighting crime on limited resources, but from his introduction onwards The Avengers and S.H.I.E.L.D. hook him up with improved gear, taking away a lot of the trappings of this trope. [[DeconReconSwitch Nonetheless]], Peter spends most of his time fighting small-time crime close to home. He later cements himself as this by the end of ''No Way Home'' [[spoiler:where he's living alone in an empty apartment with no financial support from anyone else.]]
* WorthyOpponent: He gains the respect of Captain America, both for his city (actually borough) of origin, and also for putting up such a good fight despite his inexperience. Adrian Toomes/Vulture seems to hold him in a similar regard, going by his refusal to out Peter's identity despite being arrested thanks to Spider-Man's efforts.
* WrongGenreSavvy: His vast knowledge of sci-fi movies leads to him incorrectly assuming that Mantis is a creature like [[Film/{{Alien}} the Xenomorph]] and begs her not to lay her eggs in him.
* YouAreNotReady: Tony Stark tells him this almost word-for-word when he asks about trying out for the Avengers. The roles are switched by the end of the movie; Tony has come to agree that Peter's skills would be a valuable asset to the team, but Peter endured a major reality check over the course of his conflict with the Vulture, needing time to come to grips with the risks involved in superheroics.
* WrestlerInAllOfUs: Peter's hand-to-hand combat style is a mix of this and GoodOldFisticuffs.
* YouFightLikeACow:
** Averted in ''Civil War'' because he's fighting older heroes and is too busy geeking out about how awesome they are.
** Played straight in ''Homecoming'' such as making fun of a gang of ATM thieves for wearing toy Avenger masks while beating them up.
* YouKilledMyFather: [[spoiler:Peter wants to kill the Green Goblin for the murder of Aunt May, only to be stopped by Raimi-Verse Peter to show that he is better than this.]]
* YoungAndInCharge: In the final battle of ''No Way Home'', [[spoiler:he becomes the "leader" of the three Spider-Men despite being the youngest of them because he's the only one of the three who has experience at working in a team due to his association with the Avengers]].
* YoungerAndHipper: Peter Parker is 15-years-old (while his actor is 19) when he debuts in ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'', making him the youngest cinematic Spider-Man ever. It also makes him the same age he was when Spider-Man debuted in ''Amazing Fantasy'' #15.
* YoungestChildWins: ZigZagged in terms of [[spoiler:the three cinematic Spider-Men being analogues to brothers during ''No Way Home''. On one hand, Peter lives in a world where there are plenty of superheroes, has the most advanced suit(s) and equipment(s), and on a meta sense has the films that made more money and the most film appearances in general than the two. On the other, he ultimately ended up losing everything for the greater good-- on his friends' case, [[HeroicSacrifice willingly]]. The most obvious is losing his Aunt May, who was Peter's remaining family in most media adaptations. Case in point, the two other Peters were with their Aunt May during their respective film's GraveMarkingScene to give them emotional support (For Raimi-verse during Harry's, for Webb-verse during Gwen's). This Peter's GraveMarkingScene is for Aunt May herself.]]

->''"If you're nothing without this suit, then you shouldn't have it."''
-->-- '''Tony Stark / Iron Man'''
----
* ChestInsignia: A black spider, of course. The Iron Spider suit added gold accents.
* ClothesMakeTheSuperman: {{Downplayed}}. Spider-Man is still strong, fast, agile, and has his Spidey Sense and Wall-crawling, but the suits come with all sorts of extra gadgets to them, starting with the webshooters, to round out the set.
* ExpressiveMask: Not quite the same way as Film/{{Deadpool|2016}}, but the eyes of his mask widen and narrow in response to Peter's behavior. Even the goggles in his Homemade suit are expressive.
* GodzillaThreshold: Instant Kill mode is only used in emergencies, which Peter finally activates in the FinalBattle in ''Film/AvengersEndgame'' when he gets swarmed by Thanos's forces.
* MovieSuperheroesWearBlack: Downplayed; his Spider-Man suit has a few solid black lines running through it and the "Instant Kill Mode" turns the eyepieces black, but the bright red and blue colors remain. The trope is later invoked when Tony offers a new suit with a huge black spider stretched across the torso, but Peter turns it down.
* MythologyGag: Peter's costume has a few subtle shout-outs to various incarnations of the Spider-Man costume over the past 50+ years. The eyes are in the standard John Romita, Sr. sized eyes yet can squint into Creator/SteveDitko-types. The spider insignia resembles that of Todd [=McFarlane=]'s version. His physique, soft colors, and subtle-yet-distinct redesigns also invoke Alex Ross' artwork. Interestingly, he has his web-shooters outside his costume, something Ben Reilly, the ComicBook/ScarletSpider, and May "Mayday" Parker, ComicBook/SpiderGirl, did.
* PowerLimiter: Peter mentions to Tony that the reason his homemade suit has partially blacked-out goggles is because his SuperSenses make it hard for him to focus, and restricting his field of vision counteracts that. His Stark-tech suits feature expanding and contracting eyes, allowing him more control over this power.
* PrimaryColorChampion: Both his homemade costume and the Stark upgrade suit are largely red and blue. The Iron Spider suit adds yellow / gold into the mix, making it a more complete example than Steve ''or'' Tony's suits.

Spidey's first suit, cobbled together on a shoestring budget.
----
* AscendedExtra: Originally it was only seen in Website/YouTube footage that Tony Stark pulled up online, and was replaced by the time Spidey got into action under Stark. In ''Homecoming'', he's forced to don his original suit to stop the Vulture after Stark took the Tech suit away from him.
* BetaOutfit: It's a cheap outfit made by a broke teenager, and has none of the advancements of Stark's suits.
* BreakOutTheMuseumPiece: Like his two [[Film/IronMan1 biggest]] [[Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier heroes]], he winds up having to use an inferior version of his superhero gear when his more advanced equipment is unavailable to him during the climax of ''Homecoming''.
* TheCameo: [[spoiler:Appears briefly in ''Far From Home'' in a sequence where Mysterio torments Peter with his illusions.]]
* CheapCostume: Literally a pair of sweatpants, a sweatshirt with a spider drawn on the front, and a pair of welding goggles under a ski mask.
* CostumeEvolution: The glimpse of it in ''Civil War'' had the goggles' strap visible over the mask. ''Homecoming'' has them under.
* GogglesDoSomethingUnusual: It's a welding goggles remodeled with scope mechanisms and having to function as ExpressiveMask.
* MythologyGag: The suit heavily resembles the costume of Ben Reilly, the ComicBook/ScarletSpider.

An advanced combat suit developed by Tony Stark as an upgrade for the young hero, to ensure he could keep up during the events of ''Civil War''.
----
* AwesomeButImpractical: His Stark-made suit is incredibly advanced and has a number of gadgets, but due to Peter's unfamiliarity with the interface, this comes across as a hindrance in ''Homecoming'' as many times as it's actually helpful.
* BadassBaritone: His Stark suit has an "interrogation mode" that artificially deepens his voice. Unfortunately, it doesn't really work if the "victim" already knows his real voice.
* CrazyPrepared: Tony put a lot of stuff into this suit, which is even more impressive than his Iron Man suits considering this isn't really armour. While he locked most of them to keep Peter from being overwhelmed, it's shown to include a parachute, a full-body heater, minature gliding flaps, an in-built A.I., recon drone, voice-changing, dozens of webbing types such as bouncing and electric webs, and presumably much more.
-->'''Tony:''' I put ''everything'' in your suit.
* ForgottenPhlebotinum: {{Invoked|Trope}} when Peter is packing for his school trip, leaving it behind so he can [[IJustWantToBeNormal just have a normal trip]]. [[SubvertedTrope Aunt May packs it for him]] without telling him. [[DoubleSubverted He still leaves it at the hotel]], so he's forced to fight Hydro-Man with just his default-setting web-shooters and a jester's mask for anonymity's sake.
* PowerLimiter: Most of the more advanced features, like the AI and recon drone, were locked by a "Training Wheels Protocol" until Tony felt Peter was ready for them. Peter, sick of being treated like a kid, hacks the system and removes the protocol... which bites him in the ass when he can't figure out how most of the new features work.
* RedEyesTakeWarning: The lenses on his mask glow red when he activates Instant Kill Mode.
* ShockAndAwe: One of the types of webbing available is electrified taser webbing.
* SuperToughness: Peter can be slammed through brick walls, dragged across concrete at high speeds, and this suit won't take any noticable damage from it (though Peter can still feel it).
* UncertainDoom: Peter's loss of the integrated suit at the end of ''No Way Home'' forces him to make a new costume, with no mention made of what happened to this one. While not directly stated, it was last seen packed inside Peter's luggage in ''Far From Home'' which was contained in the bus Peter's schoolmates and teachers were riding that got destroyed in the climax.
* UtilityBelt: It has one that stores web cartridges.

A second Stark suit, intended as a "Welcome to the Avengers" gift. Tony kept it after Spidey turned down his initial offer to join the team, but eventually gave it to him in ''Infinity War.''
----
* ArmorOfInvincibility: Granted it's Peter's only armor but it's still made out of the same {{Nanomachines}} Tony uses in his later armors, meaning it's his most durable.
* ClothingDamage: During ''No Way Home'' the chest area is heavily damaged when Doc Ock rips out a chunk of the nanobots. When the nanobots merge with Doc Ock's tentacles it turns out the Iron Spider suit can control them wirelessly, a feature Peter uses to contain the uncooperative Octavius.
* CollapsibleHelmet: The suit being made of nanomachines, the mask part can flow back and reform almost instantly whenever Peter wants to, revealing his face.
* CompositeCharacter: His Iron Spider suit takes influence from the Iron Spider in the ''ComicBook/CivilWar'' storyline, as well as [[https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1505598417l/26030947.jpg the high-tech suit Peter wore]] during [[ComicBook/TheAmazingSpiderManDanSlott Dan Slott's]] "Parker Industries" arc. Additionally, the large spider symbol is patterned off Ben Reilly's Spider-Man costume, which was later Spider-Girl's costume in [=MC2=] verse.
* CostumeEvolution: In ''Far From Home'' this suit has more prominent gold detailing on the shoulders and bulkier gold gauntlets.
* HoldingBackThePhlebotinum: In ''Far From Home'', it's shown to be normally kept as a swirling mass of nanomachines in a large steel case, and is left in New York for the events of the movie. By the time of ''No Way Home'', this appears to be a non-issue, as Peter is shown to store it in a compartment on his belt before the bridge fight with Doc Ock.
* InstantArmor: Peter can immediately materialize and de-materialize the entire suit at will, which is very useful because when it comes to his other suits he has the hassle of having to strip down to his underwear just to put them on and unlike the Panther Habit worn by T'Challa and Killmonger, it doesn't rip apart whatever he's wearing and the clothes merely compress inside the suit. [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome The compression still leaves said clothes incredibly wrinkled though.]]
* {{Nanomachines}}: What it's composed of, which is why it’s metallic in appearance.
* SpiderLimbs: They're mostly used for support rather than for actual combat in ''Infinity War'', but in ''Endgame'' they're shown to be utterly deadly when the armor is in "Instant Kill Mode", skewering Thanos's monstrous soldiers.
* {{Technopath}}: The {{Nanomachines}} were able to invade Doctor Octopus' tentacles, letting Peter control them, mainly by just stopping Doc Ock from using them himself.
* TookALevelInBadass: This suit amps up Spider-Man's physical attributes to even greater levels, giving him even more strength and durability (and limbs), which is needed in this much more intense physical battle against Thanos's minions than he's usually used to.
* UncertainDoom: [[spoiler:The remaining chunk of the nanomachines comprising the suit is last seen stored in a compartment in Happy's apartment before the first battle with Green Goblin. Doc Ock did manage to return to Peter the chunk used to bind him before the battle which turns his Upgraded suit into the Integrated version, but the rest was likely destroyed when Green Goblin bombed Happy's condo. And even if it wasn't, the fact that [[{{Unperson}} all of Peter's data disappeared (along with people's memories of him)]] means he wouldn't be able to use it anymore anyway.]]
* WreckedWeapon: [[spoiler:Doc Ock rips out a good chunk of the nanomachines comprising the suit during his first encounter with Peter, leading him to use the Upgraded/Gold/Integrated suit(s) for the rest of ''No Way Home''.]]

A covert-ops suit designed by S.H.I.E.L.D. both for practical purposes and to help protect Peter's anonymity.
----
* AtrociousAlias: Ned, a BadLiar on par with Peter himself, dubs the suit "Night Monkey" when Betty asks what the mysterious spider-like hero's name is. Footage of Betty and Ned calling for "Night Monkey" to help them makes it on the news and the name sticks.
* ConspicuousGloves: Fingerless gloves, which are odd given that Spidey normally has no skin showing at all.
* DarkIsNotEvil: Sure, the suit is colored black, but it is worn by one of the good guys.
* MovieSuperheroesWearBlack: Played entirely straight, and justified with this being a covert-ops suit.
* MythologyGag: The suit heavily resembles ComicBook/SpiderManNoir.
* SecondSuperIdentity: The intent behind the suit. Peter told S.H.I.E.L.D. that he couldn't help them because if his classmates keep noticing that he goes missing right before Spider-Man shows up, they'll find out his identity. So, they design an alternate costume for him, Ned's explanation for the obvious similarities being that he's [[ShoddyKnockoffProduct a European knockoff]] of the American Spider-Man named [[AtrociousAlias "Night Monkey"]].
* SpiderManSendUp: To protect his identity, Ned said the black-suited Spider-Man is an InUniverse Spider-Man rip off called Night Monkey.
* WeHardlyKnewYe: Peter only wore it during ''Far From Home'''s second act and soon abandons it during his detainment in the Netherlands.

The fifth suit, and the first high-tech suit of Peter's own creation.
----
* EleventhHourSuperpower: The suit isn't made until the final act of ''Far From Home'', specifically for [[spoiler:battling Mysterio]].
* ClothingDamage:
** The suit takes extensive damage during the final battle of ''Far From Home''. Most notably, the entire back of the costume is partially melted after being set on fire.
** In a less extreme example, a Mysterio supporter throws green paint on this suit early in ''No Way Home''. As Peter can't wash it out by himself he resorts to turning it inside-out to create the "Gold" suit as a temporary substitute. Once Aunt May cleans the suit for him he switches it back to the correct way around.
* CostumeEvolution:
** A natural evolution of the Stark suit, featuring more [[MovieSuperheroesWearBlack black]], integrated web-shooters, and other nifty gadgets.
** An odd example occurs where the ''same suit'' evolves. In ''No Way Home'', the suit is slightly altered, with a simplified and noticeably pointier belt area.
** The suit evolves again into [[spoiler:the Integrated suit halfway through ''No Way Home'' when Peter fixes Doc Ock's inhibitor chip and Ock subsequently returns the Iron Spider nanomachines to Peter, transplanting them onto this suit.]]
* MagnumOpus: Held in regards to Peter. Beforehand, he had to rely on others, specifically Stark, to give him fancy suits, and the only suit he made was the [[BetaOutfit homemade costume]]. This one, however, is entirely of Peter's own creation and his proudest accomplishment. It features integrated webshooters, web wings, a parachute, electric webbing, is fully-synergized with his abilities, and Spidey has complete control of all of it, all while the suit enhances his already impressive strength and durability, making it perhaps the best complement to his power.
* MovieSuperheroesWearBlack: Black replaces blue on this costume.
* MythologyGag: Utilizes the red and black color scheme as shown on the cover of ''ComicBook/AmazingFantasyNumberFifteen''. Moreover, the color pattern, especially that of the sleeves and gloves, is similar to that of [[Characters/MarvelComicsScarletSpider Ben Reilly's]] suit.
* NotQuiteFlight: This suit can make Web Wings, made for gliding through the air. They were briefly part of his first Stark suit, but they have much more use as part of this one.
* ShockAndAwe: He boosts the power output of his taser webs when creating this suit. [[spoiler:He uses this to take out the Elemental from inside, specifically by webbing all the drones before electrocuting them.]]
* SuperToughness: This suit ramps up Spidey's already strong durability. For one, it {{No Sell}}s being on ''fire''.

* WritingAroundTrademarks: Disney's initial deal with Sony to use Spider-Man in their films forbids them from showing any of this incarnation's suits outside of the films, so this suit serves as a SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute for Disney to use in Theme Parks and animation.

The sixth suit, which is technically his Upgraded suit turned inside-out after paint is thrown on it.
----
* {{Magitek}}: He gains a magically-modified TeleportGun webshooter made up of the nanomachines from his Iron Spider suit, courtesy of Doctor Strange.
* MovieSuperheroesWearBlack: This suit bears a striking resemblance to Raimi-Verse Spider-Man's Symbiote suit from ''Film/SpiderMan3'', with gold highlights instead of gray.
* TeleportGun: Dr. Strange gives him a modified web-shooter that teleports anyone he shoots with it to a cell in Strange's basement.
* TronLines: His suit has exposed circuitry due to just being his Upgraded suit turned inside-out, the gold in particular are actually exposed gold wire linings.
* WeHardlyKnewYe: ZigZagged as technically it is the Upgraded suit, but Peter only uses this "incarnation" of it until Aunt May manages to wash the paint off the suit.

!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome''

The eighth suit and second Homemade costume, which Peter puts together after the Multiversal crisis is restored. It seems to just be a regular cloth costume, with a design inspired by his two older variants.
----
* AdaptationalLateAppearance: This is ''the'' primary Spider-Man costume in the comics and most media. Here it debuted when Peter is already years into his superhero career and is preceded by adaptations of Spidey's other costumes.
* CostumeEvolution: It's Peter's second homemade costume, and it doesn't look like a CheapCostume like his other one thanks to Peter honing his tailoring skills despite being on the same shoestring budget as before. It also doesn't appear to have any gadgets similar to the ones Tony Stark put on his other costumes.
* IconicOutfit: ''The'' classic Spider-Man costume.
* InternalHomage: Peter seemingly models it after the costumes of his Raimi-Verse and Webb-Verse counterparts, which in effect makes it a perfect recreation of the classic costume. The credits sequence involving Peter's sketches in a notebook lends credence to this idea.
* MovieSuperheroesWearBlack: While the MCU Spider-Man has never fully fallen victim to this, he spends most of ''No Way Home'' in the Upgraded suit, which replaces Spider-Man's usual blue with black - this suit thus contrasts not only that but also every ''previous'' live-action Spider-Man costume with an incredibly vibrant shade of blue.
* TruerToTheText: The most comic-accurate design out of any of his appearances, ditching the "arm arrows" of several of his previous designs and having a very bright shade of blue.

* CompositeCharacter: He's a young Peter Parker with his scientific knowledge and a modernized take on his family life, but he also borrows from ComicBook/MilesMorales. Like Miles, he attends a specialist academy for gifted students, and his best friend is himself a composite of Miles Morales' friend Ganke Lee and Peter's friend Ned Leeds. Additionally, his being recruited by Tony Stark shortly after starting his career as Spider-Man is much like how [[ComicBook/UltimateSpiderMan Ultimate Peter]] and later Miles was recruited by Nick Fury -- whose MCU counterpart would go on to mentor him in ''Far From Home''. He's also a huge fanboy of the older superheroes just like Peter from ''WesternAnimation/UltimateSpiderMan2012''. [[spoiler:''No Way Home'' ends with him being erased from everyone's memory, including his allies and loved ones, which makes him similar to ComicBook/TheSentry, and takes some inspiration from the Miles in ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse'' due to being the youngest of the three Spider-Men and losing a family member at the hands of the film's main antagonist. As well as the Peter Parker from the ''[[VideoGame/SpiderManPS4 Marvel's Spider-Man]]'' game from which he lost Aunt May.]]

** In ''No Way Home'', Peter spends most of the film on a mission to {{Save the Villain}}s, trying to cure the various ailments of the multiversally-displaced villains rather than just sending them back to their own universes to be killed fighting Spider-Man because he feels morally obligated to help everyone he can. However, the Green Goblin becomes an exception to this after he [[spoiler:kills Aunt May. In their final showdown, Peter fights him with a rage unlike any he's shown previously, and even comes perilously close to breaking his ThouShaltNotKill rule before [[Film/SpiderManTrilogy Peter 2]] stops him. This partly justified as, unlike Peter-2, he never had Harry Osborn as his best friend and thus never had any sort of relationship with Norman with him seeing the latter as a complete stranger.]]

* StrongAndSkilled: By ''Far From Home'', Spidey has become a legitimate OneManArmy who can take on countless drones, see through illusions through his SpiderSense, and take on threats that would've decimated him before, all by himself. Really, ''Far From Home'' tells his journey from being an inexperienced hero to a true successor to Iron Man. And in ''No Way Home'' he actually fared better in his second fight with the Green Goblin than Raimiverse Peter ever did, to the point of nearly being able to kill him.

* InstantArmor: Peter can immediately materialize and de-materialize the entire suit at will, which is very useful because when it comes to his other suits he has the hassle of having to strip down to his underwear just to put them on and unlike the Panther Habit worn by T'Challa and Killmonger, it doesn't rip apart whatever he's wearing and the clothes merely compress inside the suit. [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome The compression still leaves said clothes incredibly wrinkled though.]]
