Earth-65, Gwen Stacy's dimension, uses a watercolour-wash technique meant to mirror the covers of her own comic run, and the colours in her world visibly shift depending on her mood, which is a detail a lot of people don't clock until a rewatch.
The 2007 Writers' Guild strike hit right as the show was getting off the ground, chopping the first season down to just seven episodes and forcing a much more abrupt ending than originally planned.
Tyrion's furious speech from his jail cell in season four is one of the show's most memorable moments, but Nikolaj Coster-Waldau has said it wasn't originally written to be delivered to Jaime. He pushed for the idea that Tyrion should be speaking directly to his brother, and the writers agreed to rework it that way.
When 4Kids Entertainment picked up One Piece for English broadcast between 2004 and 2006, they didn't just trim it for kids, they rewrote it. Cigarettes became lollipops, guns turned into water pistols, alcohol was swapped for juice, and entire scenes involving blood were quietly cut rather than edited, changes so drastic that 4Kids eventually dropped the license.

Almost everything about the Ghoul's look is done practically with prosthetics, but there's one exception. Goggins' nose is digitally removed in post-production, since that was the one detail the team couldn't quite pull off convincingly with makeup alone while still letting him act naturally under the rest of the prosthetic work.
Because he'd only read the first couple of scripts before signing on, Simmons initially thought Omni-Man was just going to be another warm, wise TV dad. It wasn't until later scripts arrived that he realised exactly what kind of character he'd actually agreed to play.
Digging through the game's files shows that Raptor, the VIP you pull out during the Wolverines! mission, was originally written to be the President of the United States. That got dialled back before release, but the finished game still leaves heavy hints that he's someone seriously high up.
Jet, the addictive drug that fuels half of New Reno's crime economy, was cooked up by Myron, an arrogant and none-too-likeable young chemist working for the Mordino family. He'll happily join your party if you ask, mostly so he can keep bragging about it.
