In Spider-Man: Far from Home , Peter Parker is ready to take a break from his superhero responsibilities and embrace being a high school student.

Not only was Peter (Tom Holland) among the many who had ceased to exist for five years, he returned just in time to see his mentor Tony Stark sacrifice himself in the showdown against Thanos in order to save the world. So it’s understandable that Peter just wants to forget everything Spider-Man-related for a while and enjoy a European holiday with his friends.
