![]() ![]() Just be aware that the book and the movie are two different works, and only the book is in the public domain. So if you want to read or watch “V for Vendetta,” you can do so without worrying about infringing on anyone’s copyright. The copyright on the film belongs to the studio that produced it, Warner Bros. This doesn’t mean that the movie adaptation of “V for Vendetta” is in the public domain, however. In the UK, copyright lasts for 70 years after the death of the author, and Moore and Lloyd both died more than 70 years ago. So why is “V for Vendetta” in the public domain? The simple answer is that the copyright expired. This means that anyone is free to reproduce and distribute the work without permission from the copyright holders. But did you know that the book is actually in the public domain? That’s right – the original “V for Vendetta” graphic novel, written by Alan Moore and illustrated by David Lloyd, is not protected by copyright. In recent years, the “V for Vendetta” graphic novel has enjoyed a resurgence in popularity, thanks in part to its adaptation into a major motion picture. ![]()
