Peter Parkers parents, Richard and Mary Parker, died in a plane crash when Peter was six years old. The circumstances of their deaths have been depicted differently across various adaptations of the Spider-Man story. In some versions, they died in a sabotaged plane crash, while in others, they were killed along with their wives in a plane crash. In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, their fate has not been explicitly stated, and they have not been mentioned in the films. In some adaptations, Richard Parker briefly seemed to return, but it was later revealed that he was actually a clone of Peter Parker who was aging too rapidly. Overall, while the absence of Peters biological parents in his life stands out, Aunt May and Uncle Ben are the parents of Spider-Man in every way that matters.
