All those B-movies that had a celebrity in it before they were famous/way after they were a big thing that’ll have the celebrity front and center on the cover when they’re barely in the actual movie

For a more recent example the trailer of Tuner made it look like Dustin Hoffman and Jean Reno were main characters but Hoffman is written out early on and Reno is only in three scenes near the end

Also the trailers for Zootopia 2 made it look like the Ke Huy Quan snake was going to join Nick and Judy for most of the movie but the movie spends more time talking about him than showing him and he doesn’t really join both characters until the movie is almost over
