what happened to spider man parents

In the Marvel Universe, Peter Parkers parents, Richard and Mary Parker, died when he was young. The exact circumstances of their deaths have been depicted differently across various comic book and movie adaptations. Some versions state that they died in a sabotaged plane crash, while others suggest that they were killed by an Avenger. In the original comic book storyline, Richard and Mary were secret agents who died in a plane crash caused by the Red Skull. In some adaptations, Richard Parker briefly returns, but it is later revealed that he was a clone of Peter Parker who was aging too rapidly. In the movie The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Richard and Mary Parker were shown to have died in a plane crash, but a deleted scene revealed that Richard was actually alive. However, the MCU has been vague about what happened to Peters parents, and they have not been mentioned in the films.
