History Main / BillingDisplacement

* As of Season 8 of ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'', Creator/JohnDiMaggio is billed above Creator/BillyWest in the credits. While both actors voice prominent characters, West is still more prominent in the show proper, voicing three main characters ([[TheProtagonist Fry]], Farnsworth, and Zoidberg) and numerous secondary characters compared to [=DiMaggio=]'s one main character (Bender) and comparatively smaller list of secondary characters.

* ''Anime/ScottPilgrimTakesOff'' bills Creator/MichaelCera and Creator/MaryElizabethWinstead at the top, followed by every other actor who returns from ''Film/ScottPilgrimVsTheWorld'' in alphabetical order, resulting in the incidental oddity that Satya Bhabha, the least famous by far of those returning cast members and one of the less prominent characters, is billed third.

** For each movie starting with ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirlsForgottenFriendship'', the Rainbooms' voice actors are now listed alphabetically by last name in the end credits with ordering being Ashleigh Ball (Rainbow Dash/Applejack), Andrea Libman (Pinkie Pie/Fluttershy), Rebecca Shoichet (Sunset Shimmer), Tabitha St. Germain (Rarity), and Tara Strong (Twilight Sparkle). This is despite ''Forgotten Friendship'' having Sunset as the main focus and ''Rolleroaster of Friendship'' having Rarity as one of the two leads (other being Applejack, with Ashleigh Ball appropriately given top billing). ''Spring Breakdown'' is slightly more justified due to Rainbow Dash being one of the main leads in the movie, though Twilight and Sunset are still given lower billing than Pinkie Pie/Fluttershy (both) and Rarity (in Twilight's case) despite playing more prominent roles in the movie.

* The DTV film ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirlsRainbowRocks'' has all its advertising focus on Twilight Sparkle and [[HighSchoolAU the rest of the Humane Six]] fighting the villains. While they obviously play a role in the movie's plot, the actual protagonist is Sunset Shimmer, [[SirNotAppearingInThisTrailer who doesn't appear at all in the posters or most trailers]], despite most of the story following her POV and [[ReformedButRejected her redemption story]] being the central element.
* The opening and ending credits for ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirlsFriendshipGames'' list Twilight Sparkle (the human world version) first, then Sunset Shimmer second. In reality, it's ''Sunset'' who's the main star of the film, and Human Twilight is really the {{Deuteragonist}} who gets corrupted into an antagonist near the end.

* Music/NickiMinaj and Music/{{Drake}}'s names appear in trailers and posters of ''[WesternAnimation/IceAgeContinental Drift'' despite having very small roles as part of a mammoth pack. Meanwhile, Creator/WandaSykes, Creator/KekePalmer, Creator/PeterDinklage and Creator/JoshGad are left off of the marketing despite having sizable roles (Sykes having perhaps the biggest part outside of the three leads).

* In the animated movie ''Heidi's Song'' Creator/SammyDavisJr receives second billing even though his role is very minor, only appearing as a singing rat who appears near the end.
