Should we make a list?

Deleted Priya line: "You have to start looking at the world in a new way."

Deleted Wheeler line: "Don't worry about things falling as much as rising."

Possible alternate take of Laura's line: "Don't try to understand it. Feel it."
The film version sounded possibly different from the trailer-voice-over version, but not sure.

Alternate take; there were two versions of the Protagonist reacting to the Saab (silver car) un-crashing itself:
- the dramatic "OH SHIT" reaction shot from the December 2019 trailer
- the more subdued "huh, that's strange" reaction shot from the December 2019 prologue
Neither were used in the final film, which instead opted for a shot of him just looking spaced-out and not reacting much at all :lol:

Any others?

Edit:

Two more from: viewtopic.php?f=46&t=42222&start=500

Deleted Priya line: "There are people in the future who need us. Who need Tenet."

August 2019 teaser seems to have been shot specifically for the teaser.
Possibly a first for a Nolan film?

The scene where The Protagonist is on the ship and Victor is explaining the gesture thing - in the trailer, his voice sounded little different.

No, just from Washington perspective.

Damn! Forgot about that. That shot must’ve looked insane.

Neil: We need to save 'them', here and now.

This was used in the trailer to mislead us. The actualy word is supposed to be 'her'.

From the Prologue: "Let's get him to the rally point", is changed in the film version to "Get him to the rally point" with a different take from JDW where it sounds more urgent

The shot of the blast seen in the final film is from another angle, camera is situated more rightward than this, and Kenneth wasn’t in the final shot.

There’s a lot of angles in the trailers not in the final film, they’re all over the place.

- the boat with JDW and Debicki pulling away from the harbor at Amalfi coast was not used.
