The Master and Margarita (Russian: Мастер и Маргарита, romanized: Master i Margarita) is a Russian drama-fantasy film directed by Michael Lockshin and based on Mikhail Bulgakov's novel of the same name, which is widely considered one of the most important Russian-language novels of the 20th century with over 100 million copies sold worldwide. The film stars August Diehl as Woland, a diabolical foreigner who visits Moscow, Yevgeny Tsyganov as the eponymous Master, Yuliya Snigir as Margarita, the Master's mistress and Claes Bang as Pontius Pilate. The movie was shot in 2021, but its release was delayed several times because of Russia's invasion of Ukraine and finally premiered on January 25, 2024. The movie received mostly positive reviews from both film critics and audiences and became the highest-grossing film released with an 18+ content rating ever in Russia and #7 in all time box office receipts, with over 6 millions admissions and 2.4 billion rubles, despite the attacks of Russia's state media, propagandists and officials against the movie, which eventually led to its censorship. In 2025 the film came out in movie theaters in Germany, Austria, France, Italy, Sweden, Czech Republic, South Korea and other countries. The film’s release in English-language territories has been delayed due to ongoing litigation with a producer who is trying to block the release in the US.
