Skip to main content September 18, 2026 V FOR Vendetta, Hugo Weaving, 2006.
Warner Bros/Courtesy Everett Collection Twenty years after theaters debuted V for Vendetta, the film is set to return to the big screen.
The classic will run for two nights only, on Nov.
5, for the anniversary event, courtesy of Fathom Entertainment, Warner Bros., and DC Vertigo.
The showings will also be accompanied by a new featurette with director James McTeigue, who reflects on the enduring mythology of V and why the film’s ideas of freedom and resistance still resonate today.
To mark the occasion, an anniversary trailer was released on Friday and includes a reimagining of Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture by Jonathan Snipes of the hip-hop group Clipping.
Based on the graphic novel by Alan Moore and David Lloyd, V for Vendetta tells the story of the masked “V” (Hugo Weaving) and his fight against a totalitarian Britain where immigrants, the LGBTQ community, and political dissidents are silenced and disappear.
In the clip, after he rescues a working class woman named Evey (Natalie Portman), she learns about his devastating past and uncovers the truth about herself — achieved through some questionable imprisonment — joining the revolution against the fascist government.
Alongside stunning performances by Portman and Weaving, the Wachowskis-produced film also features memorable portrayals by Stephen Rea, Stephen Fry, John Hurt, Roger Allam, Tim Pigott-Smith, and Rupert Graves.
