** ''Film/XMenOriginsWolverine'': One of the earliest trailers includes a brief shot of a young African girl with white hair, who's clearly mean to be a young ComicBook/{{Storm}}. [[NeverTrustATrailer Her single scene was cut and can only be seen on the DVD]].

* ''Film/TheBoss'' had a scene in TV spots, in which Michelle beats up a Boy Scout leader played by Wrestling/{{Batista}}. He doesn't appear in the actual movie, but the bonus features include his scene as an alternate ending.

* ''Film/JonahHex'' has a rather cruel one (for fans of a certain actress). Some versions of the trailer show a glimpse of a sex scene involving the character played by Creator/MeganFox. Not only is the scene not in the movie, but it wasn't even included as a deleted scene on the DVD.

* The entire first ''Film/BackToTheFuture1'' teaser is this, with a scene that could not possibly be contextualized to ANY part of [[Franchise/BackToTheFuture the trilogy]]. It features the [=DeLorean=] being parked on an empty road in a dry, desert-looking area. Marty [=McFly=] gets in and activates the time circuits and the flux capacitor, then puts on his CoolShades. An unseen female narrator asks: "How far are you going?" Marty looks at the camera, lifts his shades, and seems to ponder the question before answering with: "About thirty years." He then flashes a smile and puts his shades back on, before the camera cuts to the [[BurningRubber fire trails being blazed on the ground]]. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] in that not only was the main film probably still being produced, but it did a nice job of making people wonder what the final movie would be like, only giving the information that the movie involves TimeTravel and that Michael J. Fox is starring in it. Plus, a similar exchange is used in the final movie - only it's ''Doc'' who is asked the question by ''Marty''.
* During the trailer for ''Film/BackToTheFuturePartIII'', in ''Film/BackToTheFuturePartII'', there is a scene where Doc aims his rifle and growls; "Just try it, Tannen!". This scene does not appear in the actual film.

* The first ''Film/{{Transformers}}'' had a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QoVkYuCiHsA teaser trailer]] featuring a sequence where the Mars Rover is confronted and destroyed after coming across the Autobots. In the final film, no such sequence is seen (though the mission described in the teaser is brought up in the movie and shots from the end of the trailer show up as photographs) and the Autobots are shown to have journeyed directly from Cybertron to Earth.

* Disney's trailer for ''Film/TheHauntedMansion'' shows Creator/EddieMurphy coming up against a possessed suit of Japanese armor, which didn't end up in the movie, as it was cut from an existing scene. Another scene had Murphy meeting Madame Leota and saying "that's great, what is that?", and later saying to her "don't you make no dark spirits come out, wait till I leave before the dark spirits come out!" Neither line of dialogue made it into the movie.

* The trailers for the ''Film/InspectorGadget'' movie featured some jokes that either became deleted scenes or only appeared in flashbacks.
