It can be nearly impossible to tell exactly what will happen between script and screen. Between casting, rewrites, various production quibbles and the like, the final product could easily be completely different than what the people involved thought they were working on. Editing can have a particularly dramatic impact, with the director and editor being able to shape the footage at their own whim. Occasionally, whole characters fall victim to cutting. This trope is what happens when a Deleted Scene also removes an entire actor from the product. In some situations, the actor may still be seen on camera and even credited but they are only in the background or even with a couple lines of dialogue, but the breadth of their intended involvement in the story is missing. It's like portraying a main character but being reduced to The Cameo, which is sometimes more notable because the role was cut rather than the importance of the role and performance itself. For actors this can be extremely disheartening — while they will generally still get paid, no one likes to see their hard work considered redundant to the finished product and removed, and it can have negative effects on their career due to their industry visibility being reduced and they were hoping this would be their big break. Occasionally the consequences can be tragic. At the same time, small roles such as this may lead to Retroactive Recognition and those involved with the work had no idea they removed a future A-list actor. Compare Demoted to Extra, when a character's screentime is cut to the point of insignificance. Ascended Extra may happen if the actor and role is remembered for the sequel and brought to prominence. Also compare Recast as a Regular. If the role was replaced with someone else it's The Other Marty. |

In Preacher (2016), it was originally intended that the non-supernatural villain of the first season would not be Odin Quincannon, but a Gender Flipped version of him called Vyla Quincannon, played by Elizabeth Perkins. The decision to go with Odin instead was made late enough that a few sequences with Vyla were actually filmed for the pilot episode, and included as deleted scenes on the DVD release. | |

Although Harry Carey Jr. was listed in the credits for Rio Bravo on-screen, he does not appear in the picture. Carey had a drinking problem at the time. He called Howard Hawks "Howard" instead of "Mr. Hawks" on one of his first days on the set, infuriating Hawks. His contract, including his pay and his screen credit, was honored, but his part (a townsman) was cut. | |

The Incredibles had Helen rent a plane from a friend and fly it herself to the island. Originally the friend was a pilot named Snug who would fly her to the island himself. The intention was that he would be the casualty from the missile strike, with a lingering shot of his ballcap as Helen and the kids figure out what to do next. It was determined they didn't have enough time to develop him into a Mauve Shirt and the sequence was simply more intense when Helen was the pilot. Storyboard footage was released where he was played by an unknown actor. In the movie itself a picture of him and Helen can be seen as she makes a call for the plane. | |

Escape Room: Tournament of Champions has a different "Extended Cut" in the home release that has a slightly different plot, with new characters added and others removed. In the theatrical version, Sonya is the unseen daughter of Amanda Harper, the Iraqi vet from the previous film, who is revealed to have survived her fall in the Escape Room, with Deborah Ann Woll reprising her role. In the extended cut, Sonya is the late wife of the creator of the Escape Room, an erstwhile new character named Henry. Their daughter, Claire, designed the challenges, basing them from her childhood memories. They are respectively played by Tanya van Graan, James Frain, and Isabelle Fuhrman, all of whom were cut in the theatrical release, whereas Woll was cut in the extended release. On another note, the theatrical version has Zoey seeing a therapist (played by Lucy Newman-Williams) who is revealed to have colluded with the creator of the Escape Room, something that was also excised in the extended cut since it would have conflicted with the new plot. | |

A weird example in A Good Day to Die Hard. Mary Elizabeth Winstead reprised her role as John McClane's daughter in the theatrical version, but for some reason all scenes featuring her were cut in the Extended version for the home release. These not only include her physical appearances but also scenes where her voice is heard. The ending, where she prominently appears, had to be changed. | |

Norman Chappell had a scene as Mr. Thrush that was also cut. James Beck and Yutte Stensgaard had a scene as Mr. and Mrs. Roxby that was cut, although Beck is visible with his back to the camera when Sophie enters Mr. Snooper's office. |

Cheryl Smith had a sizable co-starring role in the original longer cut of The Driver, but the subplot involving her character wound up being excised and subsequently all of her scenes got cut out as well.

Tom Hedden's family were originally given roles in Straw Dogs (1971), but they were either cut or never filmed. June Brown was cast as Hedden's wife, together with Chloe Franks as their daughter Emma, and a scene was scripted featuring both in their home doing laundry with Susan George. However, although the scene was included, it was never filmed. Michael Mundell was originally cast as Cawsey the rat-catcher but was later switched to the role of Bertie Hedden in a scene featuring the village children. However, this entire scripted role was also never filmed because the scene was canceled due to time and budget constraints. | |

Several minor characters got the cut in Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald When the casting call went out for teenaged Newt and Leta, there was another character listed named Sebastian who doesn't appear in the film. According to the actor who was cast, "Sebastian" was a codename for protagonist Newt's brother Theseus but the scene was cut. According to a UK extra database, Kendra Dumbledore was also cast in the film but didn't make it into the final product. Three years after the film’s release, the MuggleNet fansite was given costume test and set photos of Ariana Dumbledore. She was wearing two different outfits in the photos which imply she was in multiple flashback scenes. Their source told them that the scenes were cut to focus more on the main plot, which had enough going on already. |

The pilot for Chuck featured Natalie Martinez as the protagonist's other love interest and neighbor Kayla Hart, who was going to be a main character but was instead cut from the pilot (and series) entirely before it aired. Martinez remained in promotional materials for some time after the pilot aired, however, generating a great deal of confusion among viewers following the show's production as to when she would make her first appearance before it was finally acknowledged she was cut from the show. | |

Carry On... Series: Carry On Nurse: The anesthetist played by John Horsley. A guard with an Alsatian, the Home Sister, and a patient whose relationship was crumbling all didn't make it past the script stages. Carry On Regardless: Eleanor Summerfield as Mrs. Riley. Lucy Griffiths as Aunt Acid, who can still be glimpsed in the film for a brief second during Montgomery's scene at the Ideal Homes Exhibition. Ian Whittaker as a shop assistant who sells Sam some cigarettes. Ronald Adam also was cut out of the film. Follow That Camel: While still visible in the film, Gertan Klauber's role as the spiv was cut down to a mere background extra. Peter Jessen's role as Lawrence was cut. Carry On Doctor: Penelope Keith's role as "Plain Nurse" ended up on the cutting room floor. Jane Murdoch as a nurse. Carry On Loving: Lucy Griffiths remains in the credits, even though her performance as a woman watching Sidney through a window in her flat was cut. Norman Chappell had a scene as Mr. Thrush that was also cut. James Beck and Yutte Stensgaard had a scene as Mr. and Mrs. Roxby that was cut, although Beck is visible with his back to the camera when Sophie enters Mr. Snooper's office. Carry On Henry: A pre-fame David Essex was filmed as a young man at Speaker's Corner who interjects a comment ("I intend to!") when Lord Hampton suggests "having it off" during the anti-Sex Enjoyment Tax argument. However, his role was cut from the finished film due to a banner prominently visible throughout the scene reading "Ban S.E.T. Tax", which would have made it "Ban Sex Enjoyment Tax Tax". Anthony Sagar's heckler, John Clive's dandy and another dandy known as Cedric were also part of the cut scene. Others who had parts cut from the film were Brian Wilde as a warder, Valerie Shute as a maid, and Jane Cardew as King Henry's second wife. In addition to playing Cardinal Wolsey, Terry Scott had a scene as Queen Marie's baby that was cut. Carry On at Your Convenience: Terry Scott was set to appear as a trade unionist named Mr. Allcock and would've received ninth billing. His scene was filmed, but never made post-production. Gerald Thomas wrote to Scott about the cutting of his entire performance in the film by writing in a personal note to him: Bill Pertwee appeared as the Whippet Inn manager but his scenes were cut from the final film. Jan Rossini had one scene as a "Hoop-la Girl" on the pier but was cut from the film. Philip Stone as Mr. Bulstrode. Alec Bregonzi as a beach photographer, alongside a happy couple (Alexandra Dane and Douglas Ridley in Uncredited Roles) he was taking photos of. Carry On Matron: Laura Collins as Nurse Rose Knightley, although she can still be spotted in the back of crowd scenes with all the nurses. Marianne Stone as Mrs. Putzova. Juliet Harmer as Mrs. Bentley. Carry On Abroad: Charles Makepeace, Lady Joan Baugham, her 17-year-old son, and the old captain never made it past the initial treatment, while Mr. and Mrs. Sockett stuck around for a few drafts before being dropped. Bill Maynard filmed scenes as Mr. Fiddler, the lecherous owner of Wundatours Limited. However, despite his scenes with Kenneth Williams, Patsy Rowlands, and Gail Grainger being filmed, over-running on the final print dictated Maynard's entire performance be cut from the released film. Terry Scott had a cameo as an irate customer that was cut. It would have been his last film in the series. Lindsay Marsh was cast as a hostess but had her only scene cut from the script just before filming. She still received her salary for her time. Carry On Behind: Vivienne Johnson is included in the credits, and cast lists say she played "Freda", but she is seemingly absent from the film. In a 2018 interview, Patricia Franklin confirmed that there were more scenes with the canteen girls, which would have included Freda, but they were cut. As a result, Freda is still in the film, but as little more than an extra. Another canteen girl, Lill, suffered the same fate, but her actress didn't make it to the credits. |

Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle originally ended with Harold meeting Maria's brother, played by Luis Guzman, who Harold initially mistakes for her boyfriend, and learns from him that Maria has gone to Amsterdam.

In Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty a character named Chinaman was originally meant as one of the Dead Cell, but before release, he was cut for reasons unknown. Vamp ended up having his initial role (as an immortal vampire) merged with Chinaman's (as an expert swimmer and even able to run along water) in part because, compared to another member of Dead Cell, Oldboy (a hundred-year-old soldier who was supposed to be Big Boss' old mentor) who got cut almost as soon as he was conceived of, Chinaman lasted long enough into development to have a boss arena built for him that couldn't be easily removed or repurposed by the time they decided to remove him. | |

Titanic: The film was first written as a four hour-long movie with three main couples that were a foil to each other in some way: Rose and Jack, who crossed social barriers; the historical film pioneer Daniel Marvin and his wife Mary, who travelled in First Class; and Jack's friend Fabrizio and a Norwegian immigrant named Helga, who travelled in Steerage and chose to stay with her parents instead of going with him during the sinking. Of these, the Marvins never made the transition to film (with only one, nameless cameraman appearing in one scene that was later cut); while Helga was Demoted to Extra in the cutting room, leaving no hint of her romance with Fabrizio in the released film (excluding a brief shot of them dancing at a party). A deleted scene showed the SS Californian radio operator Cyril Evans and third officer Charles Groves reacting to the Titanic operator Jack Phillips telling them to "shut up". The final film makes no reference to the other ship. Titanic's gym instructor Thomas McCawley appeared in two scenes that were cut: one where he showed Rose's family the gym machines, and another where he refused to wear a life vest, claiming that it'll just "impede [his] stroke". His death in the original script was given to Fabrizio. A scene showing the so-called "first victim" of the sinking, Junior Assistant 2nd Engineer Jonathan Shepherd (who asked to be left behind in a flooding boiler room after falling and breaking his leg) was scripted and shot, but ultimately cut. |

The Joker was meant to cameo in the Justice League episode "This Little Piggy", where after Diana had been turned into a pig, Batman would be walking down the street with her and would pass the Joker preparing to commit a crime with his gang. The Joker, in the middle of preparing a heist and laying out his convoluted plan to deal with Batman, would see Batman holding and consoling a pig and would stare at it in Dull Surprise, then throw his hands in the air and abandon the entire scheme. For various reasons, the scene was dropped. | |

In a deleted scene in Robotech: The Shadow Chronicles, during the first communication with Admiral Hunter, when the transmission is interrupted due to an "accident", Dr. Emil Lang's panicked voice (voiced by Greg Snegoff who voiced him in Robotech and Robotech II The Sentinels) can be heard in the background desperately trying to re-establish contact with Janice who was aboard the Deukalion. This is not so much a deleted scene since it appears in the film but Dr. Lang's voice is omitted. This version of the scene can be found in the extras included on subsequent releases of The Shadow Chronicles DVD. It was likely removed because Lang's voice in the background was distracting from the dialogue between Vince and General Reinhardt. | |

The Highlander series had a variant of this — Christopher Lambert did appear in the pilot, but when footage shot for the pilot was used in a flashback in a later ep, Lambert was edited out because they couldn't afford to pay for a second appearance. | |

Carry On Regardless: Eleanor Summerfield as Mrs. Riley. Lucy Griffiths as Aunt Acid, who can still be glimpsed in the film for a brief second during Montgomery's scene at the Ideal Homes Exhibition.

In W., Michael Shannon had a scene as the preacher who converted Dubya to evangelical Christianity. For some reason or another, it was cut out of the final product. Rob Corddry and Ioan Gruffudd also had their roles cut to almost nothing (Corddry has a one-line role at the end, Gruffudd has one scene in the middle). |

In the 2005 remake of Fun with Dick and Jane, there was a deleted scene in which Dick and Jane rob a toy store, where Dick encounters the store's elderly security guard played by James Whitmore, in what ended up being Whitmore's final film role before his 2009 death. | |

Machete had two examples, one very straight and one rather more unusual. Both appear in deleted scenes on the DVD release. Rose McGowan would have played a sexily deranged female sidekick to the hitman Osiris, called Boots McCoy. Originally, she and not Von Jackson would have shot Luz in the eye. Sartana would have had a slutty, drug-addicted twin sister, who would also have been played by Jessica Alba using split-screen. She would have been killed by Boots. |

The perceived laziness in the plot of Thomas and the Magic Railroad stems from the fact that a major character was removed from the film thanks to Executive Meddling. The main villain of the movie was a human character named P.T. Boomer (played by Canadian actor Doug Lennox), who was the main driving factor to the concern felt by Burnett Stone in the movie. Thanks to the removal of Boomer, plots driven by him went unexplained. The reason for his removal was allegedly due to him being too 'scary for children' during the US test audience screenings, which is odd given that the secondary antagonist was an evil diesel with a claw! This cut was so close to the release of the movie that trailers and promotional material still alluded to him. Efforts to have his scenes restored are currently underway through fan communities. | |

Several staff members were cut out of The Breakfast Club before filming. Dr. Lange, a social studies teacher who dresses oddly, and Robin, a gym teacher. Robin helps Vernon on a few workout machines until Vernon injures his back, and she eventually visits the students while they are in their circle in the library. Carl was originally set to be a minor character with only two scenes, before some of Robin's scenes were given to him to make up for the cut. | |

Thirteen Women: Marjorie Gateson was cast to play Martha, the woman Hazel was implied to be having an affair with in Thirteen Women. The Hays Office objected to the film depicting a lesbian relationship, so all of Gateson's scenes ended up being deleted. Phyllis Fraser and Betty Furness were cast as the Twelfth Woman and the Thirteenth Woman, respectively, but had their roles removed to shorten the film's runtime. This resulted in the movie having an Artifact Title. John Armess was also edited out of the film just before its release. Peg Entwistle, who jumped to her death a month before the film's release, had her screentime drastically reduced to four minutes. |

According to Mark Evanier, The Garfield Show episode "Down on the Farm" was originally going to feature a cameo by Orson Pig from U.S. Acres where he'd berate Garfield for complaining about his experiences on the farm and reminding the cat that at least he still had a show. A model of Orson had been constructed and Gregg Berger recorded Orson's line (reprising his role from Garfield and Friends), but the production team was forced to nix Orson's cameo because of international laws prohibiting cartoons from featuring talking pigs. | |

In his only work for Disney (if you don't count Who Framed Roger Rabbit), Mel Blanc originally recorded dialogue for Gideon the cat in Pinocchio. He was cut out not because the character was taken out but because they decided to keep him silent to capitalize on the popularity of the similarly-silent Dopey in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. A single hiccup is all that remains of Blanc's performance in the film. | |

Carry On Abroad: Charles Makepeace, Lady Joan Baugham, her 17-year-old son, and the old captain never made it past the initial treatment, while Mr. and Mrs. Sockett stuck around for a few drafts before being dropped. Bill Maynard filmed scenes as Mr. Fiddler, the lecherous owner of Wundatours Limited. However, despite his scenes with Kenneth Williams, Patsy Rowlands, and Gail Grainger being filmed, over-running on the final print dictated Maynard's entire performance be cut from the released film. Terry Scott had a cameo as an irate customer that was cut. It would have been his last film in the series. Lindsay Marsh was cast as a hostess but had her only scene cut from the script just before filming. She still received her salary for her time. |

In Magnolia, Orlando Jones' role, as "The Worm"—the father of the rapping boy and also the murderer of the man in the closet—was left on the cutting room floor. This makes Dead Guy In Closet's Murder an Unreveal and makes the boy's presence in the film more or less random. In the final cut Jones appears only as the mysterious hooded pedestrian that Officer Jim chases before losing his gun. | |

Grand Theft Auto III had three characters that were cut: German musician Novy, homeless terrorist Darkel, and Curtly. The last two still remain credited in the game's manual, but little is known about Darkel, except that some of his missions were reassigned to other characters or given out-of-context as optional Rampages, and absolutely nothing is known about Curtly. Since the actors for these two are both dead, there is no way to receive further information about them unless Rockstar speaks up about them. | |

The Harry Potter films: In Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, the late Rik Mayall filmed scenes as Peeves the Poltergeist. Test audiences didn't like the CGI effects of the design so the character was cut and none of the scenes have ever been released. In Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Sir Cadogan, played by Paul Whitehouse, was cut almost completely out of the film. You do still see Sir Cadogan jumping through several paintings behind Ron, Harry and Hermione during the Fat Lady's disappearance, and he appeared in the DVD special features. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them had a sub-plot about Jacob getting dumped by his fiancée Mildred (played by Sinead Matthews) cut entirely from the final product. However, Matthews is credited for her role in it. Several minor characters got the cut in Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald When the casting call went out for teenaged Newt and Leta, there was another character listed named Sebastian who doesn't appear in the film. According to the actor who was cast, "Sebastian" was a codename for protagonist Newt's brother Theseus but the scene was cut. According to a UK extra database, Kendra Dumbledore was also cast in the film but didn't make it into the final product. Three years after the film’s release, the MuggleNet fansite was given costume test and set photos of Ariana Dumbledore. She was wearing two different outfits in the photos which imply she was in multiple flashback scenes. Their source told them that the scenes were cut to focus more on the main plot, which had enough going on already. |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: Michael K. Williams was supposed to have a significant cameo in The Incredible Hulk (2008), which Edward Norton wrote for him because he's a huge fan of The Wire. It got severely cut down in the editing room, so in the finished movie, Williams basically shows up (completely out of nowhere) for a few seconds during the final battle. Tom Hiddleston was meant to return as Loki for Thor's nightmare sequence in Avengers: Age of Ultron. However, test audiences found the nightmare sequence confusing (apparently some thought that Loki was controlling Ultron, and the fact that the scepter he used in The Avengers to induce mind control is a MacGuffin in Age of Ultron probably didn't help), so it was drastically shortened, removing Loki's appearance in the process. Lulu Wilson filmed a few scenes as Doctor Strange’s sister Donna for his solo movie but they didn't make it into the final product. She’s briefly mentioned in the sequel. Nathan Fillion was originally going to make an unorthodox cameo appearance in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 as Simon Williams, but with the twist that he'd only appear on a series of in-universe movie posters at a film festival. The scene with the film festival was cut from the finished movie, removing the easter egg in the process. Jennifer Sharp also filmed a flashback scene as Mantis' mother, which ended up being deleted. Katherine Langford was to make an appearance in Avengers: Endgame as an adult Morgan Stark, whom Iron Man meets after snapping Thanos and his forces out of existence in a Call-Back to a similar scene in Infinity War where Thanos met young Gamora after decimating the universe. Her role, along with the scene she was featured in, was ultimately dropped from the film due to said scene confusing test audiences. Lexi Rabe had stated on Instagram that she was supposed to reprise her role as Morgan Stark in Spider-Man: No Way Home, yet it was cut. |

The X-Men Film Series have multiple examples of this: X2: X-Men United was meant to feature brief cameos from Beast and Gambit during the brainwashed Professor X's telepathic attack on the mutants, which would have caused their powers to flare involuntarily, but the sequence was cut. The characters would later appear in X-Men: The Last Stand and X-Men Origins: Wolverine, respectively. Fan favorite Jubilee appears in very minor blink and you miss it cameos in all three of the original X-Men films, but a slightly longer scene that had her showing off her powers was cut from X2. The actor who played Colossus (Daniel Cudmore) was intended to have a much larger presence in X-Men: The Last Stand (including a fight scene with both Juggernaut and Magneto, who throws Colossus away when he armors up). Almost the entirety of his role is deleted, and he appears in a non-speaking background role for the entirety of the film. Anna Paquin's role as Rogue was cut out of X-Men: Days of Future Past, but her major scene was included on the Blu-Ray release as a deleted scene. A 17-minute longer "Rogue Cut" of the movie was later released on Blu-Ray, which restored her role completely, along with other changes added as well. X-Men: Apocalypse was going to have the debut of Channing Tatum as Gambit. The Artifact of playing cards remains in the opening sequence. |

A variant happens in the movie Sucker Punch. While Jon Hamm does make an appearance at the end as the doctor who performs a lobotomy on Baby Doll, a deleted scene also had him appear in the bordello fantasy, as the High Roller. In the scene, it would have been revealed that the High Roller had no intention of raping her, and asks for love between a man and a woman, in exchange for setting her free. Baby Doll consenting leads to her seeing the lobotomy as her freedom in the real world. Apparently the scene was cut because Executive Meddling kept whittling it down, until it began to look like Baby Doll wasn't entirely consenting to the sex. Since that ruined the entire point of the scene, it was cut and the High Roller remained an unseen character. | |

X2: X-Men United was meant to feature brief cameos from Beast and Gambit during the brainwashed Professor X's telepathic attack on the mutants, which would have caused their powers to flare involuntarily, but the sequence was cut. The characters would later appear in X-Men: The Last Stand and X-Men Origins: Wolverine, respectively. | |

Carry On Behind: Vivienne Johnson is included in the credits, and cast lists say she played "Freda", but she is seemingly absent from the film. In a 2018 interview, Patricia Franklin confirmed that there were more scenes with the canteen girls, which would have included Freda, but they were cut. As a result, Freda is still in the film, but as little more than an extra. Another canteen girl, Lill, suffered the same fate, but her actress didn't make it to the credits. | |

Mr. & Mrs. Smith (2005): Estella Warren planned to make a big comeback with a supporting role, but her part — she and Adam Brody play a husband and wife who get wrapped up in the film's plot — was deleted from the final print (although Brody remains in the movie). Keith David & Angela Bassett were cast as the bosses of the title characters, but only their voices remained in the final movie. Terence Stamp and Jacqueline Bisset also appeared in a subplot as terrorists that got cut. |

The character of Shaak Ti (played by Orii Shorshan) appeared in Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith, but most of her role in the latter was deleted from the final print. She was intended to be killed in the film (first via a sequence on the Droid Control Ship where General Grievous executes her in front of Anakin and Obi-Wan, and then via a scene where she would be killed by Anakin during Order 66). Both of these sequences were cut, though the former is included on the DVD as a deleted scene. Her role in Sith was eventually pared down to a shot of her in hologram. | |

Final Fantasy XV had a very Troubled Production, which saw several characters cut from the finalized story as confirmed by Roberto Ferrari, the secondary character designer. The biggest example among them is Stella Nox Fleuret, the original heroine of the game, who later was replaced by Lunafreya. The game developers have stressed that Stella and Luna are completely different characters on many occasions, though design-wise Luna is a reworked version of Stella. | |

Declan Mulholland was cast in A New Hope as Jabba the Hutt, who was conceived to be a portly human crime boss who wore a shaggy fur coat and was very receptive to Han Solo's offer to settle his debts. His role was deleted from the final product, due to George Lucas apparently being unsatisfied with this version of the character, which was reworked in Return of the Jedi as a giant slug-like alien portrayed by animatronic. The footage was later reworked to replace Mulholland with a CGI Jabba for the Special Edition releases. | |

Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie was originally three hours long, and featured many characters who were either cut out or removed from the script through rewrites. Former rangers Billy, Trini, and Zack were all supposed to appear, but David Yost quit, and Thuy Trang and Walter Jones turned the film down. Also removed was a mermaid, Mandika, an ally of Zordon's who would help the Rangers find the Ghost Galleon ship and later prevent Kimberly from drowning. All of her scenes were shot, but were later cut from the movie, and have never been seen since. | |

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (1981): A rare case of an inanimate object getting this treatment is Zaphod's second head, an elaborate animatronic affair that was envisioned delivering at least half of actor Mark Wing-Davey's lines. Unfortunately, the thing proved to be incredibly unreliable and didn't look all that convincing when it did work, and the production team lost patience after a few days of filming and downgraded its role to a mostly inanimate prop, with a line where Zaphod tells it to "go back to sleep" added to cover it. | |

Gerald Thomas wrote to Scott about the cutting of his entire performance in the film by writing in a personal note to him: Bill Pertwee appeared as the Whippet Inn manager but his scenes were cut from the final film. Jan Rossini had one scene as a "Hoop-la Girl" on the pier but was cut from the film. Philip Stone as Mr. Bulstrode.

DC Extended Universe: The theatrical cut of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice has several missing characters compared to the Ultimate Edition, including a CIA team at the beginning in Nairomi, S.T.A.R. Labs secretary Jenet Klyburn (Jena Malone), the girlfriend of criminal Cesar Santos and a tramp who talks to Clark Kent about Batman being on a hunt. Due to the original plans for the movie having been heavily altered (and in some cases outright dropped) after the responses to Batman v Superman, Justice League, which had a Troubled Production as a result, has multiple instances of this: The movie originally featured appearances from Willem Dafoe as Nuidis Vulko (to tease Aquaman) and Kiersey Clemons as Iris West (to tease The Flash), including a scene where Barry would've used his powers to save Iris from a car accident. Both of these parts were cut, even though part of the car accident scene was used in the trailer. Robin Wright was originally set to reprise her role as General Antiope from Wonder Woman in a Flashback, but this too was cut. Other deleted flashback scenes would've served an origin story for Cyborg, with Karen Bryson playing his mother, Elinore Stone. Said deleted flashbacks also included a scene with Cyborg helping a Struggling Single Mother played by C. Amanda Maud. Other deleted scenes featured Ryan Choi, one of the scientists at S.T.A.R. Labs. Audiobook reader and Bit Character actor Ray Porter was cast as Darkseid, who was supposed to lead the invasion to Earth in ancient times before his role was written out and replaced by Steppenwolf in said ancient times. Martian Manhunter (revealed to be Calvin Swanwick and played by Harry Lennix) was also cut, his scenes couldn't be filmed. Zack Snyder's Justice League is an inversion — all of the aforementioned missing characters are featured in this version. However, it also has a straight example, as Snyder cast Wayne T. Carr as the John Stewart version of Green Lantern in a cameo, only for the studio to request that the scene be cut. After previously having returned to the role of Superman for the first time since 2017 in 2022's Black Adam (2022), Henry Cavill filmed a similar cameo appearance for The Flash (2023) during reshoots. However, the scene showing Superman alongside other members of the Justice League was cut by the new heads of DC Studios, who announced that Superman would instead be recast with a younger actor (eventually revealed to be David Corenswet) in the character's next solo film. Likewise, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom was originally supposed to feature an appearance from Batman, with Michael Keaton reprising his role from The Flash. However, due to scheduling changes that pushed Lost Kingdom before Flashnote It would later change release dates again not long after, rendering the Batman reshoots pointless, the scenes featuring Batman were reshot with Ben Affleck in the role for continuity purposes. After the decision was made to end the current DCEU in favor of a reboot, Batman was dropped from the film entirely, with neither actor's footage being used. |

From Prom Night (1980): After the family visits Robin's grave, Mr Hammond takes his wife to visit Dr Fairchild. The men would talk briefly in the hallway, where it would be revealed that Robin and Alex were twins. Mr Sykes would be shown witnessing Wendy's murder. In the theatrical cut, he can still be seen during her chase. The girls would be passing notes in class, which was Jude telling them about Slick. Kim would be caught with the note and forced to read it aloud to the class. This is why Mr Weller calls Kim "the literary Ms Hammond" when she arrives at the gym late. |

The Last Airbender cut an extra twenty minutes with the Kyoshi Warriors. This makes a bit of sense, since introducing Suki might have been weird given that Sokka has Yue as a Love Interest in this film. Unfortunately, most of the film's other artistic choices were bad enough that we'll never see her or the others introduced in a sequel. | |

Liam Burke shot scenes as "The Mad King" (Aerys II Targaryen) for flashbacks in Game of Thrones, but they were all cut. Sean Bean played Brandon Stark, the elder brother of his regular character Eddard Stark, in one of such flashbacks. Perhaps unsurprisingly, it showed Brandon's death. John Standing played Jon Arryn in the unaired pilot. After the episode was rewritten and partly reshot, all of Arryn's scenes were cut except for one showing his dead body. |

Due to the original plans for the movie having been heavily altered (and in some cases outright dropped) after the responses to Batman v Superman, Justice League, which had a Troubled Production as a result, has multiple instances of this: The movie originally featured appearances from Willem Dafoe as Nuidis Vulko (to tease Aquaman) and Kiersey Clemons as Iris West (to tease The Flash), including a scene where Barry would've used his powers to save Iris from a car accident. Both of these parts were cut, even though part of the car accident scene was used in the trailer. Robin Wright was originally set to reprise her role as General Antiope from Wonder Woman in a Flashback, but this too was cut. Other deleted flashback scenes would've served an origin story for Cyborg, with Karen Bryson playing his mother, Elinore Stone. Said deleted flashbacks also included a scene with Cyborg helping a Struggling Single Mother played by C. Amanda Maud. Other deleted scenes featured Ryan Choi, one of the scientists at S.T.A.R. Labs. Audiobook reader and Bit Character actor Ray Porter was cast as Darkseid, who was supposed to lead the invasion to Earth in ancient times before his role was written out and replaced by Steppenwolf in said ancient times. Martian Manhunter (revealed to be Calvin Swanwick and played by Harry Lennix) was also cut, his scenes couldn't be filmed. |

Cursed was very much a Troubled Production, and as a result of Executive Meddling, re-writes, and re-casting, many actors filmed scenes that were never shown.

Likewise, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom was originally supposed to feature an appearance from Batman, with Michael Keaton reprising his role from The Flash. However, due to scheduling changes that pushed Lost Kingdom before Flashnote It would later change release dates again not long after, rendering the Batman reshoots pointless, the scenes featuring Batman were reshot with Ben Affleck in the role for continuity purposes. After the decision was made to end the current DCEU in favor of a reboot, Batman was dropped from the film entirely, with neither actor's footage being used. | |

Famous bodybuilding siblings David and Peter Paul had a scene in Natural Born Killers where they were interviewed by the Robert Downey Jr. character because despite having their legs hacked off by the main characters, they can't help but be impressed by their charisma. Director Oliver Stone, despite praising their scene as the best-written one in the movie (whose screenplay was written by Quentin Tarantino), couldn't fit it into the final cut. Ashley Judd also had a part that was cut, where she had a 9-minute scene as a courtroom witness. Denis Leary appeared in a cameo as a conspiracy theory-obsessed prisoner that was cut. |

Superman IV: The Quest for Peace: In the original cut, there were two Nuclear Men made by Lex Luthor, and Mark Pillow's Nuclear Man was actually the second incarnation. The original Nuclear Man, played by Clive Mantle, was much less intelligent, akin to Bizarro from the comic books, and had a confrontation with Superman before being defeated by being electrocuted into ashes. Thus, the "dirt" that Lenny Luthor adds to the capsule with Nuclear Man's protoplasm was really the remains of the original Nuclear Man, and Nuclear Man II inherited Nuclear Man I's memories of crossing paths with Lacy Warfield, which was why he was seeking her in the climax. Nuclear Man I's scenes were cut after a poor test screening, and director Sidney J. Furie apologized to Mantle about taking his scenes out. The Cannon Group considered using Superman IV's 45 minutes of cut scenes in a potential fifth Superman film, however, those plans got scrapped after this film bombed in theaters. | |

Carry On Henry: A pre-fame David Essex was filmed as a young man at Speaker's Corner who interjects a comment ("I intend to!") when Lord Hampton suggests "having it off" during the anti-Sex Enjoyment Tax argument. However, his role was cut from the finished film due to a banner prominently visible throughout the scene reading "Ban S.E.T. Tax", which would have made it "Ban Sex Enjoyment Tax Tax". Anthony Sagar's heckler, John Clive's dandy and another dandy known as Cedric were also part of the cut scene. Others who had parts cut from the film were Brian Wilde as a warder, Valerie Shute as a maid, and Jane Cardew as King Henry's second wife. In addition to playing Cardinal Wolsey, Terry Scott had a scene as Queen Marie's baby that was cut. |

In The Big Chill, the friend who committed suicide, putting the entire plot in motion, was originally meant to be played in flashback by Kevin Costner. Lawrence Kasdan eventually decided his character didn't need to be seen, and all of Costner's scenes were edited out. The role isn't 100% deleted, though. The body being dressed at the beginning of the film? We never see the face, but it is Kevin Costner, all right. | |

An in-universe example in Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt. Panty spends one episode preparing to debut as a movie star and tracks down all copies of an illicit porn tape on hers that was shown by accident during the premiere. When they try premiering it again, Panty reveals she had all of Stocking's scenes cut from the film, so the audience could see her more. In revenge, Stocking has the last remaining copy of the porn tape place on the Net to ruin Panty's reputation. | |

Yesterday (2019): Ana de Armas had a role as a rival Love Interest for Jack, but was cut since test audiences thought it made Jack unsympathetic. This was actually a point of contention, since two of de Armas' fans filed a lawsuit against Universal, claiming that they had been duped into renting the film since she was shown in the trailer, only to find out that she wasn't in it. | |

Originally, Richard Lynch played Jonathan Hawthorne and Andrew Prine played a character called Judges Samuel Mather. Due to Lynch's worsening health condition, Rob Zombie reshot Hawthorne's most important scenes and filmed new shoots for the burning scene with Prine as the reverend and omitted the judge. |

Friends has an In-Universe example. Joey gets a guest spot on Law & Order and invites his grandmother from Italy to watch with the gang. While they're watching, he discovers that they cut him out of the episode and he tries to keep his grandmother from finding out. June Gable was originally cast to play Joey's agent Estelle Leonard for the first season episode "The One With The Butt" where Joey first starts working with her. The character was cut from that episode and Gable would appear as a different character later in the season. In a twist on the trope the writers eventually brought Estelle, and Gable, back for the second season and made her a minor recurring character. |
