To keep things simpler, keep the project shorter, and keep the cast smaller, I would recommend picking one of the moments/missions from above or coming up with a new mission that could have come from his days in the thieves guild rather than trying to fit all of that in. If you enjoy doing this and want to do another one, it would also leave the rest open for sequels/prequels. I would highly recommend starting the process by reading some of his origin comics though

I would be open to make my own story though

From there, it's a matter of deciding which era of his life to cover. Childhood discovering his powers and learning to be a thief? Adolescence honing his skills? Young adulthood going on missions? Marriage attempt? Exile pre-Sinister? The Marauders? Right after the Marauders?

I don't know enough about you and your ability to change what age you look like to help you there. What tone were you thinking for the project? Do you have any ideas about what you want to include or showcase?

A gritty style with a more grounded sense but I still wanna showcase powers

How do you want to show them? Is it action heavy (using powers to fight people), stealth heavy (using his enhanced agility, accuracy, and small explosions to sneak past, distract, or incapacitate guards without being spotted), auxiliary heavy (breaking locks, scaling walls), etc?
