Second 'V for Vendetta' trailer arrives online

Catch a further glimpse at what promises to be one of the most talked about films of 2006.

Dec 16 2005

A second trailer for 'V For Vendetta' has hit the net, and it further whets the appetite for what will doubtless be one of the most spectacular films of next year.

Based on the graphic novel by Alan Moore and David Lloyd, scripted by the Wachowski brothers ('The Matrix') and directed by first-timer James McTeigue, 'V for Vendetta' also looks to be one of the most controversial, dealing as it does with themes of corrupt governments and terrorism.

Starring Natalie Portman and Hugo Weaving, the plot revolves around a masked vigilante who takes on a totalitarian state Britain of the near future using violence and anarchy.
