Trivia
- At the end of the first airing of "Change Your Mind", the teaser trailer played revealing a part of the planned release date.
- The brief glimpses of the Gems in the teaser shows them in their pre-regeneration outfits. This was most obvious with Garnet's shades being their original shape instead of the top of a star. This was likely done to avoid spoiling the Diamond Days arc's mass regeneration, though their appearances were not updated for the trailer shown after "Change Your Mind" first aired on Television.
- The poster for the movie reveals that the movie will show the characters in their near future.
