New Trailer for ‘V for Vendetta’ 20th Anniversary Screenings in 2026

“Remember, remember, the 5th of November, the gunpowder, treason & plot…” Fathom Ent. has debuted a year-in-advance special screening of the extraordinary revolutionary classic V for Vendetta, made by The Wachowskis and director James McTeigue. The re-release event will be held on November 5th, 2026 in celebration of the 20th Anniversary of the movie (it was originally released in March 2006 but the date November 5th is part of the movie). V for Vendetta is one of my all-time favorite movies, an enlivening and inspiring experience, and one of The Wachowski Sisters’ most exhilarating follow-ups to The Matrix just 7 years prior. In a near future British dystopian authoritarian society (similar to the one in America today), a shadowy freedom fighter, known only by the alias of “V”, plots to overthrow the tyrannical government with the help of a young woman. Natalie Portman stars as Evey, and Hugo Weaving co-stars entirely under a Guy Fawkes mask in one his best performances ever as the enigmatic V. The cast includes Stephen Rea, Stephen Fry, John Hurt, Tim Pigott-Smith, Rupert Graves, & Roger Allam. I used to rewatch this movie every year on November 5th, it’s a brilliant presentation of a real revolution when things get this bad. // Continue Reading ›
