‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ Will Not Focus On Uncle Ben, Spidey To Have His Own JARVIS Equipped Suit!

After two franchise reboots, the friendly neighborhood avenger will be back on "Spider-Man: Homecoming" after debuting on "Captain America: Civil War." The wall crawler will have a solo movie but unlike its predecessors, the movie will be set ion Marvel's Cinematic Universe. Tony Stark will play a father figure and a mentor to the superhero fledgling but many fans are asking where Uncle Ben is and what will be his role in the movie.

We all know the origin story of Spider-Man after watching two versions of the same story. There is the radioactive spider bite and Uncle Ben's tragic death. However, what we all love is the lesson that Ben Parker passed on to Peter which serves as his core belief as a superhero, the words, "with great power, comes great responsibility." Unfortunately, we will not see this scene in the upcoming movie.

According to Cinema Blend, co-producer Eric Hauserman Carroll mentioned that the movie will not focus on Uncle Ben's teachings. "What we're trying to tell is this sort of fun story of the kid who is doing all the wrong things for the right reasons," said Caroll. He also stated that once they tackle Uncle Ben's story, the movie will lose the fun that they are targeting to show.

Though there will be no Uncle Ben in "Spider-Man: Homecoming," the origin story will be the same and Uncle Ben existed in the MCU sometime before as reported by Comic Book. Uncle Ben will still be mentioned in the movie but it will be implied that he died and the filmmakers will not elaborate on the matter. Instead of portraying the origin story, upcoming film is focusing more on Spider-Man's growth as a superhero at a young age.

In other reports, the wall crawler will have a few more upgrades in his hi-tech suit that was made Tony Stark. Aside from the web shooters, web wings and spider tracers, the suit will also sport an AI computer much like JARVIS is to Ironman. However, the awesome feature was deactivated and locked within Stark's Training Wheels Protocol that was meant to guide Peter as a legitimate superhero.
