2015 saw the death of Sir Christopher Lee. It also saw the death of Cilla Black.

The British film industry produced over fifty major feature films in 2015. This article fully lists all films that have a release date in that year and which were at least partly made by the United Kingdom. It does not include films first released in previous years that had release dates in 2015.
Also included is an overview of the major events in British film, including film festivals and awards ceremonies, as well as lists of those films that have been particularly well received, both critically and financially. The year was particularly notable for a number of box office bombs, such as Jupiter Ascending, Pan, Fantastic Four and Mortdecai.
