More than 20 years after the original, the first teaser for the "Lord of War" sequel has appeared. It was released by Vertical, and the Polish film site Filmweb reported it on 4 November 2026.
What it is about
The first film, from 2005, was directed by Andrew Niccol, writer of "The Truman Show" and "Gattaca". It followed Yuri Orlov, who became an arms dealer after witnessing a murder. As he did business, he kept running from Interpol agent Jack Valentine.
Niccol is also behind the sequel. This time Yuri discovers he has an illegitimate son. Anton is also in the arms trade and wants to outdo his father. He is not interested only in selling weapons: he is building an army of mercenaries that he plans to use in conflicts in the Middle East.
Cast
Nicolas Cage again plays Yuri Orlov senior. His son Anton is played by Bill Skarsgård. The cast also includes Laura Harrier ("Michael"), Sylvia Hoeks ("Blade Runner 2049") and Greg Tarzan Davis ("Top Gun: Maverick").
Release
According to the film's page on Filmweb, the production is titled "Lords of War" in the original. The worldwide premiere is planned for 5 February 2027, and the film is due in Polish cinemas on 19 February 2027. The sources we used do not give a UK release date.
What this means for you
The teaser is available online. A UK cinema release date has not yet been confirmed, so it is worth keeping an eye on local cinema listings.
