Okay, here are a few options for the English plot summary of Spider-Man: No Way Home (which is the most recent major Spider-Man movie, though there have been others), along with a brief mention of the previous one (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse).
Option 1: Focusing on Spider-Man: No Way Home
Spider-Man: No Way Home Plot Summary
Peter Parker is finally living the life he always wanted, balancing his heroic duties as Spider-Man with his relationship with MJ. However, his past continues to haunt him when he encounters Doctor Octopus, Green Goblin, and the Lizard – versions of his former villains from different dimensions – brought back by the mysterious Madame Web.
The villains capture Peter and force him to reveal how to open portals between dimensions. To save his friends and loved ones (including MJ, who has been erased from reality by the villainous Doctor Doom), Peter makes a devastating choice: he allows the villains to be erased from existence across all universes.
The consequences are catastrophic. The heroes are forced to hide, and Peter himself becomes an international fugitive. He is taken in by Ned, MJ, and Michelle to live in secret. However, the erased villains inevitably reappear, forcing Peter to team up with alternate-dimension Spider-People – Miles Morales, Gwen Stacy, and Peter B. Parker – to fight them off.
During the climactic battle, Peter is critically injured. In a last-ditch effort, Ned, MJ, and Michelle use the Lizard's technology to open a portal to the main Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), hoping Peter can be saved by Doctor Strange and the Avengers. Peter is successfully transported, but the price is high: his existence in the multiverse is now erased, and he must live his life again as a normal human while hiding his secret identity.
Option 2: Including Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse as Context
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse Plot Summary
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018) follows 16-year-old Peter Parker, who is struggling to balance high school, his first relationship with Gwen Stacy, and his secret life as Spider-Man after being bitten by a radioactive spider. He soon discovers that there are many other Spider-People from different dimensions, each with their own unique powers and challenges.
Spider-Man: No Way Home Plot Summary (Building on the First)
Following the events of Into the Spider-Verse, Peter Parker (now played by Tom Holland) is living in the MCU, having made amends with Gwen Stacy. He has found a degree of normalcy with his girlfriend MJ. However, his peace is shattered when the multiverse is threatened by Doctor Octopus, Green Goblin, and the Lizard – powerful villains from different dimensions – who have been brought together by the manipulations of Madame Web.
In a desperate bid to save his loved ones and prevent the villains from destroying the world, Peter is forced to make a terrible sacrifice: he uses the multiverse-damaging device to erase his own heroic history across all realities. This makes Spider-Man seemingly disappear, causing widespread confusion.
The heroes, including Ned, MJ, and Michelle, are left reeling from the loss of Peter and the threat of the villains. Peter himself becomes a fugitive, forced to hide in plain sight. He eventually reconnects with alternate-dimension Spider-People – Miles Morales, Gwen Stacy (from another dimension who is still alive), and Peter B. Parker – forming an unlikely alliance to combat the villains.
The final confrontation takes place in a collapsing New York City. Peter is severely injured while protecting his friends. In a final act of sacrifice, his friends open a portal to the MCU, hoping Doctor Strange and the Avengers can save him. Peter is successfully returned, but the cost is devastating: his life as Spider-Man across all universes is erased. He wakes up on a hospital bed, having lost his powers and his identity, and must navigate life as a normal teenager again while the memory of his actions and the mystery of his missing heroic legacy linger.
