The Hunt: How real-life tragedy can alter the course of films and TV

A scene in Spider-Man featuring the twin towers of New York's World Trade Center was deleted from the film and the trailers in light of the sombre national mood, and the location was also edited out of Men In Black II and Zoolander.

It was replaced by a new storyline involving Monica and Chandler, and the already-filmed footage was only released years later as part of a box set. Wiseman says that while audiences like to identify with characters and storylines, a story which appears to reflect a real-life horror can be difficult to watch.

He adds that once promotion has begun, films can be more difficult to change or postpone than TV shows.
