Spider-Man: Far From Home Trailer - 11 Easter Eggs And References You Totally Missed
8. Is That Uncle Ben's Suitcase?
Marvel Studios
After Peter takes a trip to the post office we see him back home at May's apartment. He leaves his Spidey suit behind, potentially still feeling the effects of Thanos' snap from Avengers: Infinity War, before the camera flashes on him shutting his suitcase.
In any other trailer this would be a fairly insignificant shot, but pay close attention and you'll see that the suitcase has three initials engraved in-between one of the handles. What do they read? 'BFP', which seems like a pretty clever nod towards Peter's deceased Uncle Ben, whose full name was Benjamin Parker.
The 'F' is a new addition, but if true, this would continue the MCU's approach of only making tacit allusions to the character of Uncle Ben. It's a tasteful move though, and a great way of showing his uncle's presence even though he's no longer there, especially after Pete presumably wore one of his old suits in Homecoming.
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
