The recent release of the book "Marvel Studios' The Marvel Cinematic Universe: An Official Timeline" requires a lot of analysis. Members of WikiProject:Timeline team are working on editing pages in response to the information revealed in the book. If you wish to contribute, please do not immediately edit these pages, and instead visit the Timeline Discussion.
For a variety of reasons, scenes are deleted from movies and TV series. Whatever that reason, the scene was not good enough to advance from the writers to the actors to the cameras. At many times, these scenes give a more detailed exposition of a plot point, or just add an "Easter egg" to be enjoyed. Since they provide additional plot points or exposition, deleted scenes are considered as valid as the released ones from an in-universe point of view, unless they are contradicted in the published scenes of a movie or episode.
The following is a list of the deleted scenes from various movies and television series in the Marvel Cinematic Universe:
An extended version of the ambush at the beginning of the film, which includes Tony Stark briefly trying to defend himself using a soldier's assault rifle.

This deleted scene directly contradicts the final film, as Bakaar is still alive after this point.
