Here’s the last Kill Bill 3 update from Quentin Tarantino as the first two movies land on Netflix

by

Netflix has recently added Quentin Tarantino‘s two-part film series, Kill Bill: Volume 1 and Volume 2, which has sparked renewed discussion about the possibility of a third movie being made.

The filmmaker’s two-part film focusing on The Bride (Uma Thurman) and her violent quest for revenge is now available for viewers in the UK and Ireland on the streaming service.

Both films first came out about six months apart, in 2003 and 2004. Afterwards, Tarantino has frequently mentioned the idea of making another movie, this time centering on Nikki, the daughter of Vernita Green.

What to Read Next

Based on what he said in 2021 about a possible third movie, it appears that the idea for a third film has been cancelled.

The director once mentioned on the The Big Picture podcast (as reported by The Playlist) that their initial plan was to make three Kill Bill films, releasing one every ten years.

Uma will age ten years with each installment. Additionally, I plan to create an anime film exploring the Bride’s backstory during her time with the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad.

After that, I plan to create an entire animated film explaining how Bill and his three mentors – Hatori Hanso, Pei Mei, and Esteban Vihaio – came to be.

Explaining why those projects never came to fruition, he continued: “Okay, honestly, I completely exhausted myself working on Kill Bill, traveled all over the world, and I really don’t want to revisit that experience.”

That same year, Tarantino mentioned the possibility of casting Uma Thurman’s actual daughter, Stranger Things actress Maya Hawke, in a future third Kill Bill film.

He explained on the Joe Rogan podcast in 2021 (The Hollywood Reporter reports) that it’s essentially checking in with the same characters after two decades.

Simply picturing the Bride and her daughter, B.B., enjoying 20 years of tranquility, only to have that peace broken, and then finding the Bride and B.B. forced to flee, is a compelling thought. The concept of casting Uma Thurman and her daughter, Maya Hawke, would be incredibly exciting.

So, back in 2022, I heard Thurman talking about whether we’d ever get a sequel. He said it wasn’t happening anytime soon – basically, it wasn’t immediately on the cards. It wasn’t a flat-out ‘no’, but don’t hold your breath, you know? He didn’t give us much hope, and said it wasn’t on the horizon right now.

I don’t have much information to share about that,” she explained on The Jess Cagle Show. “It’s something that people have talked about for years. There was genuine consideration of it at one point, but that was quite a while ago. I don’t think it’s likely to happen anytime soon.”

It doesn’t look like we’ll be getting a third Kill Bill film anytime soon. Plus, Quentin Tarantino has also announced that his previously announced tenth and final movie, The Movie Critic, has been cancelled.

I was listening to the Church of Tarantino podcast, and he was talking about how The Movie Critic relates to Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood. Even though he says they aren’t actually connected, he called The Movie Critic a “spiritual sequel” to his ninth film, and honestly, he admitted it was “too much like [it]”! It sounds like he sees a lot of similarities himself.

Tarantino explained how he planned to recreate Los Angeles as it looked in 1969 for Once Upon a Time…, stating that it wouldn’t rely on CGI. He added that building 1977 Los Angeles for The Movie Critic would involve a similar approach.

It was a crucial task we needed to accomplish [in Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood]. We really had to make it happen, and it wasn’t guaranteed. … Regarding The Movie Critic, everything was already decided,” he explained.

I had a general idea of how to depict LA in a bygone era. It felt too similar to the previous project.

Kill Bill: Volume 1 and Kill Bill: Volume 2 are streaming on Netflix in the UK and Ireland.
