* ''Across the Spider-Verse'' was planned to be a [[MovieMultipack two-part movie]] based on one massive script, but Sony opted to ditch the two-part format and retitle the second half of the production as ''Beyond the Spider-Verse''.
* Mayday's [[https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Fj4Lu6FXwAAHY-F.jpg concept art]] shows she was originally planned to have heterochromia at one point unlike her comic counterpart, with her left eye being brown like her father's and the right being blue like her mother's.

Her hair in the concept art is also noticeably different from how it looks in the second trailer, as it is shorter and sports a darker shade of red akin to Mary Jane's hair color.
* The "First Look" trailer for the movie, back when it was ''Across the Spider-Verse: Part One'', has a number of differences from the final movie. Most notable is that [[spoiler:Miles' arrival in Mumbattan and his fight with Miguel were once the same scene, with Miguel tackling Miles out of Mumbattan and into Nueva York's SpaceElevator.

Given comments from Chris Miller, however, he likely ended up being saved for ''Beyond the Spider-Verse'', as he was announced before the sequel was officially split into two films.
* The film initially had a [[TheStinger post-credits scene starring]] the Spot. It was scrapped because the filmmakers felt it ruined the tone of the main movie's cliffhanger and, at that point in production, it would have been a confusing OrphanedReference to an earlier scene that they already cut ([[spoiler:the earlier scene would have seen the Spot go to a BadGuyBar and be relentlessly mocked, with the post-credits scene having him return to curbstomp everyone with his upgraded powers]]).
* Even more live-action scenes were going to be included, but ended up removed as the writers thought it became too much and the humor of it stopped working.

* An [[https://twitter.com/AlliterAndy/status/1671192416798531585?s=20 original version]] of the "Leap of Faith" scene unceremoniously ends abruptly with Miles crashing into the semi-truck he leaps over during his swing, but then silently picks himself up to continue on to the Collider. The intent was to subvert "big hero moments" and CallBack to the "get up" scene, as well as showing Miles having a more quiet resolution to his character arc by simply getting back up like Spider-Man is meant to. While the producers still played around with the idea enough to create a rough animation, they correctly predicted that the scene would've hurt the overall movie, be seen more as {{Narm}}, and scrapped it in favor of a more appropriate and triumphant ending.

This, followed by him learning from his daughter that she is irrevocably sick and just wants to die with her dad a good man, makes his HeelFaceTurn at the end, and Peter forgiving him, much more credible and poignant. These scenes most likely ''were'' considered, at least somewhere along the line - they were, after all, used in the Creator/PeterDavid novelisation in lieu of what the movie actually gave us. Though the novelisation presents Peter and Flint making amends partway through the battle, while the film shows it ''after'' Venom is defeated, and it's really up to the audience to decide which is better (since stopping a big climactic action sequence so that characters can clear things up is pretty hard to pull off in a film).

* As detailed in ''Behind the Mask of Spider-Man'' by Mark Cotta Vaz (a tie-in publication with the film), three scenes were ultimately storyboarded but left unfilmed. These included a scene where Peter would realize that he has organic webshooters in his school's bathroom just prior to the fight with Flash Thompson, a sequence where Peter would go to a public library to research various spiders and their capabilities after realizing his newfound powers, and sequence(s) where Spidey would rescue one of Oscorp's board members, Fargus, from the Green Goblin, in what would have been their second proper confrontation (along with a scene where Spidey is briefly captured by a SWAT team before escaping). The first sequence was never filmed because it was considered extraneous considering the tension that ramps up after the cafeteria scene; the second was condensed into a short sequence where Peter realizes the extent of his powers (including wall-climbing) in an alley after glimpsing a spider-web; the third was ultimately never filmed due to scheduling issues. Storyboards from all three sequences are shown in the book.

The film would have seen an eager young Silver reluctantly working as the recruiter for her dad's team, the Six Pack, despite wanting to be an actual member of the group. Early on, the Six Pack and Spider-Man would be taken out by Doctor Octopus and Mr. Negative, forcing Silver to recruit her own team (which would include Raul Quentino and a Somalian heroine named Lightbright) in order to save them and stop the villains.

As well, the opening heist he'd be stopping would be set at dusk instead of early noon during the graduation ceremony, lead by Herman Schultz (pre-Shocker, with Creator/BenHardy considered to play him). However, due to widespread dislike of the first film's suit, Sony mandated a redesign of the suit to be more comic-accurate. Webb states he'd have been in favor of it being a story-necessary change, having Peter or Gwen craft a new suit for the second act if the studio hadn't been hellbent on appeasing the unhappy fans.
