MAJOR PLOT SPOILERS:
The story reveals Peter Parker struggling with his dual idenтιтy in New York when he discovers a mysterious ancient artifact linked to chi energy. This leads him to Hong Kong, where he meets Master Wei (Jackie Chan), a former guardian of the artifact who initially mistakes Spider-Man for a threat. The artifact awakens dormant symbiotes beneath Hong Kong, causing Venom to emerge and possess multiple hosts.
The film’s biggest twist comes when Master Wei sacrifices his chi energy to help Peter develop a new fighting style that combines his spider-powers with martial arts, creating “Way of the Spider.” The climactic battle features Spider-Man and Master Wei fighting a Venom-possessed army across Hong Kong’s skyline, culminating in a spectacular sequence where they must choose between saving the city or destroying the artifact.
Post-credit scenes reveal:
Master Wei secretly training Miles Morales
A symbiote fragment bonding with Wong at the Sanctum Sanctorum
Madame Web observing multiple timeline variations of the events
The film introduces new suit technology that combines mystical elements with Stark tech, setting up future storylines in the MCU’s supernatural realm.
