Full plot (contains spoilers)
After the events of Avengers: Endgame, Peter Parker joins his classmates on a school trip to Europe. During the trip, he encounters the Elementals—beings of earth, water, fire, and air—and meets Quentin Beck, who claims to have the power to defeat them. Nick Fury provides Peter with a high-tech suit and the E.D.I.T.H. system to help him. However, Peter eventually discovers that Beck is a fraud who uses advanced holograms to simulate his powers and the Elementals' existence. Beck's true goal is to use E.D.I.T.H.'s orbital weapons to establish himself as a hero. After a series of battles in Venice, Prague, and Berlin, Peter realizes Beck's deception. In a final confrontation in London, Peter faces Beck's drones and manages to reclaim control of E.D.I.T.H., ultimately defeating Beck. The film concludes with Peter starting a relationship with MJ, while a mid-credits scene shows J. Jonah Jameson framing Spider-Man for the events in London. A post-credits scene reveals that Nick Fury and Maria Hill were actually Skrulls in disguise.
