Question about From Russia with Love movie poster.

Can someone tell me if this poster is fan made or if it is an original theatrical poster?

I know the art is original, but as far as I know there is only one version of that poster with that particular artwork and it's horizontally oriented (UK original poster). The official US version is sort of ugly in comparison and it has nothing to do with this artwork. So, can anybody tell me if it is fan made or something?

Variations of that design were used in Italy, Sweden and other European territories and a similar version (with different text block and helicopter in a different part of the poster) was used on the cover of the UK press book.

"Security - release the badgers."

So, in other words, this particular poster isn't official because it wouldn't have english text, right?

Not necessarily. The portrait format version used on the international English-language territories pressbooks has English text.
