The Marvel Cinematic Universe is full of Easter Eggs that nobody has discovered yet, just askGuardians of the Galaxydirector James Gunn.
TheHoward the DuckEaster Egg inSpider-Man: Homecomingis hidden really well. This is a movie MCU fans have seen multiple times and nobody has offered up just exactly where this reference is. Jon Watts admits that it’s hidden extremely well and notes fans might not ever find it at all. He had this to say about the Howard the Duck Easter Egg.
“It’s like almost so obscure that I don’t even know if anyone could ever find it, but there’s a Howard the Duck reference. It’s a very small, smallEaster egghidden in tall grass.”
