Beck successfully tricked the Skrulls impersonating Nick Fury and Maria Hill (as well as Peter Parker) into believing his story, gaining access to Tony Stark's technological glasses with the intention of staging even larger attacks. Beck's plan was discovered by Parker and Michelle Jones, however, and he was eventually killed by one of his own drones whilst fighting Parker. After his death, Beck's team framed Parker by doctoring footage of their fight to demonize Spider-Man and reveal his identity to the world.
Beck was introduced in the film Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019), Gyllenhaal reprising his role in the web series The Daily Bugle and the film Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021) through archival footage.
