The Marvel Cinematic Universe has yet to directly mention Peter Parker’s Uncle Ben, but a small Easter Egg in the latest trailer for Spider-Man: Far From Home gives us our most concrete reference yet.

About 40-seconds into the latest trailer, a quick shot shows us the top of the suitcase Peter is using to pack for his trip to Europe. The old, worn suitcase includes the initials “BFP,” likely standing for “Benjamin Franklin Parker.” While Uncle Ben’s middle name isn’t official Marvel canon, he was reportedly modeled after the renowned American founding father Ben Franklin, making the middle initial a nice throwback to the character’s origins.
