** A movie based on the franchise was in the planning stages during the series run, called ''Code Lyoko: Havoc''. It was originally meant to be a two-part episode (much like XANA Awakens before it), before being ultimately turned into a film. Sophie Decroisette described the film as Code Lyoko meets ''Film/TheTerminator'' with several scripts being processed before being scrapped due to financial and distribution reasons, according to Decroisette:
*** The plot was to involve a buggy Return to the Past that would have flung Yumi, Odd and Ulrich [[TwentyMinutesIntoTheFuture 60 years into the future]] with the future showing the full consequences of [[TheBadGuyWins XANA's power]] if he isn't stopped with a ruined Paris and Kadic overrun with robots under the AI's control with the trio teaming up with their adult selves (who would have likely led a resistance group), with them doing whatever they can to return to the past in time to save Aelita and Jeremie from XANA's deadliest attack yet while also preventing the BadFuture from happening.

* ExecutiveMeddling: The reason why the show was so formulaic in Season 1. Executives thought that a serial plot-line would [[ViewersAreMorons confuse viewers]]. Also, look below at WhatCouldHaveBeen concerning the ''Garage Kids'' concept. Allegedly, the [[ResetButton Return To The Past]] was implemented specifically ''because'' of this executive demand as a means of [[StatusQuoIsGod maintaining status quo]], which would easily explain the later decision to write in an excuse to use it less in subsequent seasons.

*** Also detailed in WhatCouldHaveBeen concerning the ''Garage Kids'' concept, but it is precisely because of this trope that the current iteration of ''Code Lyoko'' exists. The original plan was to fully develop the world presented in the pilot, but executives considered it too dark and did not approve of the concept of the Lyoko Warriors keeping their abilities in the real world. Thomas Romain left the project to work on WesternAnimation/ObanStarRacers as a result, and it was not until Sophie Decroisette was brought on board that the series would start to properly congeal.
** This would likewise continue with the production of Seasons 3 and 4; originally Season 3 and Season 4 were going to be around the same length as standard seasons, but Season 3's episode count was cut in half, with some leftover slots used to make the [[Recap/CodeLyokoXANAAwakensPart1 prequel]] [[Recap/CodeLyokoXANAAwakensPart2 two-parter]], and Season 4 was slightly extended. However, it too did not escape meddling. As seen below with WhatCouldHaveBeen, numerous concepts were proposed for the Season, but many were rejected, with budget cuts forcing the deletion of the Mountain Replika.
*** Said meddling is also the reason why the lore concerning the supercomputer did not progress beyond Season 2; executives considered exploring it to be too complicated and thus the producers were not allowed to pursue the plotline of Project: Carthage any further past that point.
