Spider-Man’s First Big Tragedy Secretly Happened In An Avengers Movie According To MCU Theory

One MCU theory suggests that Marvel Studios’ The Avengers could have secretly contained one of the most crucial and tragic events in the backstory of Tom Holland’s version of Spider-Man in the MCU. Tom Holland debuted as the MCU’s Peter Parker in 2016’s Captain America: Civil War, with Marvel Studios choosing to avoid retelling Spider-Man’s typical origin story that had been seen in Marvel Comics and in Sony’s previous Spider-Man franchises. Instead, Parker already had his abilities during his first appearance in Civil War, and one of the key elements of Spider-Man’s timeline happened prior to his introduction in the MCU, and still hasn’t been seen on-screen.
