Crime mystery “V for Vendetta” was one of the surprise hits of 2005. The movie was based around a mysterious figure known only as “V,” who opens Natalie Portman’s eyes to the oppression in the world.

James Purefoy didn’t like his mask

V was portrayed by Hugo Weaving in the movie’s final release, but originally he was played by James Purefoy. V wears a mask, and that’s something that Purefoy just couldn’t get past. Purefoy felt as though he couldn’t act properly underneath the mask, so he left this hit movie behind.
