The original pilot episode and most of the first two episodes of the original shot footage were included in the movie but here are the major differences from the TV series to actual movie:
- Sarah Thompson's character was actually called Annette Hargrove but is now called Danielle Sherman.
- Keri Lynn Pratt's character was actually called Cecile Caldwell, but is now called Cherie Claymon.
- "TV friendly" dialog was originally used instead of what is currently present.
- A different score and soundtrack was used.
- Certain sub-plots (More about secret Manchester Prep tribunal, characters Penny Cartwright, Todd Michaels, Millicent Davies, Nigel Danby, etc.) were dropped from the plot completely focusing on the Merteuil/Valmont family completely.
- 10 minutes of newly added footage which was shot in 2000, including the shower sex scene with the twins, and the twist ending.
