Spider-Man: Far From Home recently got a good push at the theatres with the release of its extended cut scene. It managed to bring in $4 Million during the last weekend. The extra scenes did turn out to be an incentive. But they make you wonder why Sony deleted those scenes in the first place. Was it all a ploy looking at what Avengers: Endgame did? Spider-Man: Far From Home extended cut scene did make people come in for a rerun of the movie despite the bad news about Spider-Man that was delivered over the last 2 weeks or so.
The rerelease of the film has brought the total of the film to $1.124 Million worldwide. Just $4 Million more to go and Spider-Man: Far From Home will become the 3rd highest-grossing film of 2019 having beaten Captain Marvel. Those of us who didn’t catch the extended cut, well, we’re lucky because a clip from the newly added footage has been released online. Comicbook.com has given us a look at that scene.
In these added scenes, we see Peter go through his to-do list in order to get ready for the Europe trip that he is about to go on. He goes to pick up his passport. Since there’s big line at the counter, Peter uses his Spider-drone to get things done faster. Then he swings by to Mr. Delmar to pick a headphone adapter. And finally, before he makes an appearance at Aunt May’s charity event, the Iron Spider take down a gang at a restaurant, exactly how we saw in the second trailer of the film.
Director Jon Watts revealed back when Spider-Man hit the theatres, that these extended cut scenes will actually be a part of the BluRay pack of the film. When asked about why the scenes were deleted, Watts told io9:
“That was in the movie for a while. It’s part of a montage where Peter is running a bunch of errands that he has to do before he flies to Europe. And the joke was his errands were he had to buy a dual headphone adapter…he had to get one of those European travel plugs, he sold some of his action figures so that he would have enough money to [minor spoiler removed], pick up his passport, and he had to take down this extremely dangerous crime family. That’s Spider-Man’s to-do list.”
