Captain America: The Winter Soldier

• One of the first revealed deleted scenes was a short, painful conversation between Natasha and Fury about his decision not to bring her in on his survival plan. Scarlett Johansson suggested it be cut because it disrupted the momentum of the film, and the basic gist of the scene is still conveyed without being needed to spell it out. By cutting the scene, though, we are also deprived the introduction to the photo-veil, the high tech mask that allow Natasha to impersonate Councilwoman Hawley and enter the Triskelion.
• One scene reveals a pragmatic reason why Steve ditches the S.H.I.E.L.D. version of the Captain America uniform, even for the final confrontation (putting aside the symbolic reasons for using the WWII outfit). After he escapes the assassination attempt in the Triskelion, HYDRA is able to track his location through a tracker installed in the suit. However, Steve appeared to know about it, and leaves it behind at a public gym for a set of sweats. The STRIKE team comes across it stuffed in someone's duffel bag.
• Another deleted scene was one of Maria Hill and Sitwell conversing after Cap's escape, ending with her being put under investigation because of her mild taunt that Rogers tends to inspire loyalty.
• The dialogue between Pierce and Natasha about potentially leaking her past alongside the entire S.H.I.E.L.D. database ran longer, with a mention that Pierce isn't doing anything to stop it because HYDRA's existence being known to the public won't matter once the Helicarriers are fully operational.
• A deleted scene that wasn't filmed was one of Hawkeye being sent to hunt down Steve, catching up to him and the two of them fighting. Steve wins, but finds Hawkeye whispering to him to make his defeat look real, revealing Hawkeye deliberately lost because a Quinjet is recording the whole thing overhead. He also alerts Steve about the tracking device in his suit.
• Another unfilmed scene was one taking place after the reveal of HYDRA and computerized Zola. In it Zola would have explicitly been shown to survive by transferring his mind to a robot body, which promptly flees before Pierce's missile strike. It was cut out because the Russos felt uncertain about leaving such a major loose end hanging by the end of the film; however, the finished scene is ambiguous enough that Zola could indeed return if they wanted to.

Guardians of the Galaxy

• After arriving on Xandar, Quill flirts with Ti Asha.
• Gamora and Nebula demonstrate their Sibling Rivalry by fighting and talking simultaneously, with Gamora emphasizing why she was Ronan the Accuser's first choice above her sister. She then boards a ship full of Sakaarans and kills them.

• The Guardians of the Galaxy are helped by the people of Xandar after their battle with Ronan, including Broker.
• Ronan the Accuser accepts Star-Lord's challenge to a dance off for the Orb.
• The pit boss, played by Marama Corlett, had her dialogue cut from The Boot of Jemiah bar scene on Knowhere. She was intended to announce the Orloni and F'saki creatures that were seen racing.
• Naomi Ryan's dialog scenes were cut for pacing reasons.

Avengers: Age of Ultron

• Considering the criticisms regarding pacing, some of the deleted/extended scenes do help transition between moments better:
  • Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver are handing out stolen supplies to the people of Sokovia. Pietro gives another woman, Zrinka, an expensive dress from Paris and a toy for her brother Costel. Wanda chides Pietro, warning him that stealing is dangerous despite his powers and he's going to get shot eventually.

  • Tom Hiddleston shot a cameo as Loki in Thor's dream sequence. Joss Whedon revealed:
  We even had a little reference to the fact that he’s taken the throne, which was Tom doing his Anthony Hopkins impression when Thor says, "Oh, what would father say?" Then Tom does his Anthony Hopkins impression, and Thor’s like, "That is uncanny!" It’s sort of like his subconscious is telling him that Loki was imitating his father. But he would never make that connection."
  • Steve and the Avengers land in Sokovia and see some graffiti that call Captain America a fascist. This motivates him to not wear his helmet in the Battle of Sokovia.
  • Steve gathers Wanda, Natasha and Clint to battle the Ultron Sentries. Natasha makes a remark about Wanda wearing her jacket. Wanda suggests that they try to get civilians out of the city before it rises too high. Pietro runs up, ready to fight, and the characters take off into the battle.
  • Pietro runs through a neighborhood of Sokovian balconies, telling civilians to get to safety. He stops to flirt with a girl, asking "Maybe I see you after?"

She laughs and he tells her that she is not supposed to laugh; Jim Paxton comes in, coughing a signal for him to leave.

• Ryan Coogler's original submitted cut is rumored to have been four hours long:
  • Okoye and W'Kabi talk after T'Challa loses the duel against Erik Killmonger. W'Kabi blames T'Challa for bringing Ulysses Klaue to strangers (CIA, UNO) instead of to his people, and fully lays out his motives for helping Erik.
  • In a flashback, while playing in the catacombs, young T'Challa and Nakia find T'Chaka mourning over having to kill his traitorous brother. King and prince discuss the responsibilities and the burden of being a king.
  • T'Challa remembers when T'Chaka gave him the mantle of Black Panther, while remaining the king. Zuri tells him T'Chaka had told him he had grown too fat for the suit.
  • Right before his speech to the UN, T'Challa meets Everett Ross. Ross tries to dissuade him from revealing Wakanda's wealth and power to the world, but T'Challa tells him he won't rule by fear anymore. Then Ross tries to wish the king luck in Wakandian, but ends up saying "Good luck and many shoelaces" instead.

Avengers: Infinity War

• Tony and Pepper spar over the details of their upcoming wedding—-until a hassled Happy Hogan pulls up with an urgent request.
• On a darkened street, Wanda Maximoff and the wounded Vision attempt to hide from Corvus Glaive and Proxima Midnight.
• After fighting over their loss at Knowhere, Star-Lord, Drax, and Mantis discover urgent coded messages from Nebula, including coordinates to Titan.
• Thanos confronts Gamora with a vision from her past—-and with lying to him about the Soul Stone.
• Bruce and Natasha acknowledge that they’ve both moved on from their brief romance and are Better as Friends.

Ant-Man and the Wasp

• An extended scene of the opening flashback, showing a younger Hank and Janet in The '80s shows Hank in the Ant-Man Suit punching a soldier, then Janet in her Wasp Suit regrowing mid-flight and knocking the soldier down to the ground.
• Sonny Burch and Uzman follow the trail of Ant-Man, the Wasp and Hank, arriving at a bookstore and witnessing security footage of Hank's Mobile Laboratory shrinking.
• While leaving the Quantum Realm with Hank, Janet reveals that there are worlds upon worlds and entire civilizations living inside the Quantum Realm.

Captain Marvel

• In the film's second trailer, the Supreme Intelligence assures Carol Danvers that they "made her one of them so she could live longer, stronger, superior". Such phrase is never heard in the actual film.
• One of the first promotional images revealed was one depicting Yon-Rogg and Ronan the Accuser together in the same location. In the finished film, they just communicate via hologram.
• According to Jude Law, before Yon-Rogg gets send to search Captain Marvel and the Tesseract, he had an encounter with the Supreme Intelligence. It is present in the Blu-Ray, and shows he sees Supreme Intelligence as an older version of himself.
• Vers and her fellow Starforce members banter as they are preparing for their rescue mission to save Soh-Larr from the Skrulls on Torfa.
• There's an alternate version of the scene with the "smile" biker. Instead of him walking off and Carol taking his bike when he's not looking, he pushes his luck and Carol finally smiles and offers him a handshake, which he accepts...and then she turns it into a Crushing Handshake that sends him to his ground desperately trying to get away and threatens to do worse if he doesn't hand over his bike keys and his jacket (rather than the mannequin as shown in the movie). Presumably, the potential Disproportionate Retribution on display made them choose otherwise out of worry she would appear as a Designated Hero. This wouldn't have been a wrong assessment of the scene, as once it started making the rounds on the internet, many people called it out as being such.
• Talos, disguised as Director Keller, tries to track down Vers and Nick Fury after their escape in a Quadjet from the Joint Dark Energy Mission Facility. After arguing with Whitcher, Talos finds Maria Rambeau's S.H.I.E.L.D. file, giving him the location of her countryside ranch.
• Phil Coulson, then a novice S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, offers Nick Fury his help after the Chase of the Skrulls. Later, he opens the office door for "Keller" and leaves. It is then revealed that the real Keller was unconscious in the office, and had been secretly replaced by Talos.
• After Captain Marvel has removed the photon inhibitor, she throws the Supreme Intelligence into the water. Before Carol wakes up again in the real world, a comic book version of the Supreme Intelligence rises out of the water and says that they are not done yet.
• Among the flashbacks to Captain Marvel's past, Carol stands up during an U.S. Air Force ceremony.

Avengers: Endgame

• Tony's death scene was expanded to show the reactions of the other heroes, kneeling and mourning. The scene also confirms that Gamora wasn't dusted in Tony's snap and walked away from the group.
• A scene where Tony and Pepper are talking about their alpaca (Gerald) who is shown outside eating goji berries they grew. She shoos him out of the kitchen when he starts to interfere jokingly with her cooking and he crashes into something offscreen but they stay cool. Tony goes outside to notify "Madam Secretary" (Morgan) that "lunch is in five".
• Two short bits were cut from the heist planning scene.
  • While discussing the history of the Space Stone, Rhodey asks Steve why he didn't jump out of the HYDRA plane before it crashed back in 1944.
  • Rocket calls the Chitauri "the suckiest army in the galaxy" and asks why the Avengers didn't blow up their mothership right away. When Steve says they didn't know that would work, Rocket laughs at them - until Tony shaves a stripe off him.
• In 2013 Asgard, Rocket sneaks past the guards at a door to find Thor relieving himself. He reacts by saying he wants to claw his eyes out but he already saw the awfulness. Thor is basically complaining about having been sent here because he didn't want to see the Dark Elf war again. All while continuing to drink.
• Additional cut from 1970 New Jersey with Howard asks "Potts" if he wants to work for him. "Potts" (Tony) says he's "a little tied up in futures right now."
• There was a version of Vormir in which Thanos' troops were involved and Black Widow had to run with the Gauntlet and be shot while running to jump over the cliff. Joe Russo said it seemed a distraction from the most powerful part of the scene: two friends, one of whom has to die, fighting each other to be the one who dies.
• A moment during the final battle where Quill and Rocket reunite and discuss 2014 Gamora.
• Thanos grabs Captain America by his neck and chokes him.
• An alternate take of the final battle where all of the main heroes gather in a trench to discuss the battle plan. Most of the dialogue still appeared in the final film. The scene was portraying heroes (sans Bucky and Carol - whom both did communicate with the group) hiding out in the mirror dimension to protect themselves from the Sanctuary II aerial bombardment.
• When Thor appoints Valkyrie as new ruler of New Asgard before departing with the Guardians of the Galaxy, Valkyrie puts her arm on his shoulder and Thor leans in as if they were about to kiss. This was improvised by both Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson.

Spider-Man: Far From Home

• The trailer for the film showed a scene where Peter, in the Iron Spider, apprehending a group of bank robbers in the middle of a heist before telling the police he was leaving on vacation. This scene is used in a short film titled Peter's To-Do List.
• Peter wears his regular Spider-Man suit during the scenes at the charity benefit in the trailer but wears the Iron Spider in the movie.
• A short scene which appeared in the trailer had Peter shoot a sarcastic thumbs up in response to Flash Thompson insulting him (ironically, just after he had been praising Spider-Man).
• Peter sells all his toys, including a Star Wars one, to buy MJ a present. According to Tom Holland, the Star Wars reference was selected by Kevin Feige, but he isn't sure which character was.
• Beck briefs his team on their plan, before sending out another energy pulse, acting as the arrival of the Elemental Fusion. Beck is contacted by "Nick Fury" / Talos and claims to be on his way to fight the Elemental, before breaking character and smiling to his crew.
• On the flight back to the United States, Peter and Michelle are sleeping next to each other, with Peter's head on Jones' shoulder. They briefly wake up and smile at each other before going back to sleep.
