The MCU’s version of Spider-Man is the Spidey we all know and love – with one key difference. He never mentions Uncle Ben.

The latest episode of Marvel’s animated series 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:What If…? rectifies that and 🌸marks the first reference to Peter Parker’s slain unc๊le in MCU canon.

At the midway poin🔯t of the creatively titled "What If… Zombies?" episode, Peter is calm and collected while dealing with not only legions of the undead, but also Hope van Dyne succumbing to a bite in front of him.

"How do you stay so upbeat?" Hope asks Spider-Ma𓆉n. His reply is a history lesson of sorts: "Practice, I guess. My mom, dad, Uncle Ben, Mr. Stark… I’ve lost a lot. But my Aunt May says ‘If we don’t keep smiling when they can’t, then we might as well be gone too."

There you have it. Uncle Ben does still have an impact – at least on this version of Spide𓆉r-Man. Remember, the multiv൩erse is part of the MCU now. This all counts as canon.

It remains to be seen if Tom Holland’s webhead will bring up his Uncle Ben. His absence in the story being told across Homecoming and Far From Home was telling – and taken up by Tony Stark in a surrogate Uncle Ben role – but 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Spider-Man: No Way Home could change all that. If reports that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfiel𝔉d are returning ring tru𝐆e, it’s likely that Uncle Ben (or Uncle Ben’s famous words) cou✨ld finally slide into live-action canon.
