WHAT THE STUDIO WANTS YOU TO KNOW

DESCRIPTION:

Who is the man who hides his scarred face behind a mask? Hero or madman? Liberator or oppressor? Who is V - and who will join him in his daring plot to destroy the totalitarian regime that dominates his nation?
From the creators of The Matrix trilogy comes V For Vendetta, an arresting and uncompromising vision of the future based on the powerfully subversive graphic novel. Natalie Portman stars as Evey, a working-class girl who must determine if her hero has become the very menace he's fighting against. Hugo Weaving plays V - a bold, charismatic freedom fighter driven to exact revenge on those who disfigured him. And Stephen Rea portrays the detective leading a desperate quest to capture V before he ignites a revolution. The stakes rise. The tension electrifies. The action explodes. Whose side are you on? In V's world, there is no middle ground.

TRIVIA TO IMPRESS YOUR EASILY IMPRESSED FRIENDS

This film is based on the graphic novel by David Lloyd.
The scene in which the dominoes are knocked over to reveal a giant letter V took more than 200 hours of work by four professionals and more than 22,000 dominoes.
The Wachowski Brothers were huge fans of the comic on which this film is based, and worked on a draft of this film that never came to be before making The Matrix.
Bryce Dallas Howard and Scarlett Johansson both auditioned for the role of Evey but lost the role to Natalie Portman.
The film's tagline "Remember, remember the 5th of November..." is a line taken directly from the poem written about Guy Fawkes' Night, a revolutionary in England who stopped a plot by the Catholic church to overthrow the Parliament. The film was also supposed to be released on November 5th 2005, but ended up having to be delayed.
