WARNING: The following article contains spoilers for Spider-Man: Far From Home, in theaters now.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe is famous for the notoriously high level of secrecy around its films. While the trailers for Spider-Man: Far From Home revealed a few of the film’s big twists and had a few misdirects, it was fairly accurate to the spirit of the movie, unlike the trailers for other MCU films, which at times presented heavily edited clips in order to keep certain things secret.
However, Far From Home’s theatrical release didn’t include every moment from the trailer. There were a couple of heavily featured scenes that never turned up in cinemas. Now, we’re going to take a look at these moments and see whether or not their removal actually impacted the film in any way. For the purposes of this article, we won’t be including negligibly different moments from scenes that featured alternate cuts or edits but were ultimately included in the movie.
THE RESTAURANT FIGHT
Most, if not all, of the trailers featured snippets of a fight between Spider-Man in his Iron Spider suit and a group of thugs that Aunt May refers to as the “Manfredi Mob.” It takes place in a Chinese restaurant and shows Spider-Man making use of the suit’s mechanical arms. The police show up and the wall-crawler makes a quip about having to do their jobs before announcing that he’s going on vacation.
Director Jon Watts actually announced that the scene had been cut before the film was released. The reason for its removal was the fact that “it was a really fun scene, but it didn’t really move the story forward.” Essentially, Watts wanted to move the story to Europe as quickly as possible. Given the fact that the Europe trip takes up a substantial amount of time in the film, the cut was seemingly a wise decision.
SHOPPING FOR ESSENTIALS
Several trailers begin with a scene that takes place within a small corner shop. Peter grabs a cheap toothbrush from a hook and tells the store owner that he’s going on vacation. This seemingly inessential scene is often interspersed throughout dialogue and other action scenes from the first act of the film. From the look of it, the only new bit of information it would have given audiences would have been the origins of Peter’s cheap, plastic toothbrush.
It’s safe to assume that director Jon Watts opted for this scene’s removal for the same reason the restaurant was deleted from the final cut. It didn’t move the story forward and would have kept the action from moving along for no real reason. It might have been nice to see Peter doing regular things for a little bit, but certainly not at the expense of the film’s pacing.
PASSPORT PICK UP
Another heavily featured scene in the trailers was one set at the immigration department, where Peter went to pick up his passport. The scene featured an Easter egg when it revealed Peter’s date of birth sans his birth year. It’s revealed to be August 10th, which is a reference to the recognized release date of Amazing Fantasy #15, the comic written by Stan Lee and Steve Ditko that introduced Spider-Man.
Once again it appears that as fun as that scene might have been, it was cut to help push the story along. The Easter egg may have been a fun little inclusion but the rest of the scene would have been trouble. After all, it’s painful enough waiting in line for passport pick up in real life, watching someone else do it wouldn’t be much fun either, even if that person is Peter Parker.
All three of these scenes, plus another featuring Peter selling some of his toys, are set to be featured in Peter’s To-Do List, a short film that will be included on Spider-Man: Far From Home’s home releases.
Now in theaters, director Jon Watts’ Spider-Man: Far From Home stars Tom Holland, Samuel L. Jackson, Zendaya, Cobie Smulders, Jon Favreau, JB Smoove, Jacob Batalon and Martin Starr, with Marisa Tomei and Jake Gyllenhaal.
