Churchill: The Hollywood Years is a 2004 movie, directed by Peter Richardson. It stars Christian Slater as Winston Churchill, and Neve Campbell as Elizabeth II. Academy Award nominee Miranda Richardson and Anthony Sher also star.

The film is a satire on the Hollywood take on history, for example the misrepresentation of events as depicted in the US film of the capture of the Enigma machine from the U-boat U-571. Even before its release, the film is a subject of controversy, due to Churchill being portrayed as an American soldier who kisses the future Queen Elizabeth.

It is set to be released in the UK and Ireland on November 19 2004.
