‘Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair’ Trailer Released

The trailer and release date for Quentin Tarantino's explosive new installment of "Kill Bill" have arrived.

"Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair" is releasing the sequels to 2003's "Kill Bill: Volume 1" and 2004's "Kill Bill: Volume 2" in theaters nationwide for the first time. The film also includes a new, never-before-seen anime sequence (see trailer below).

The film's duration is over four hours—281 minutes—but thankfully includes a 15-minute intermission.

Lionsgate's film will be released exclusively in theaters on December 5th.

In Tarantino's epic revenge film, Uma Thurman stars as the Bride, "who is left for dead after her former boss and lover, Bill (David Carradine), ambushes her wedding rehearsal, shoots her in the head, and steals her unborn child. To exact her revenge, she must hunt down the four remaining members of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad before confronting Bill."

Tarantino has been considering the idea for Volume 3 for years. The concept would pick up two decades after Volume 2 and after a period of peace for the Bride and her daughter, B.B. Kiddo. Tarantino said he would cast Thurman's real-life daughter, Maya Hawke, in the role, and the two would be on the run from assassins.

“I think it’s just revisiting the characters 20 years later,” the Oscar winner said of the hypothetical film. “Just imagining the Bride and her daughter B.B. having 20 years of peace, and then that peace is shattered and then the Bride and B.B. are on the run. The idea of casting Uma [Thurman] and casting her daughter, Maya, and the thing would be fucking exciting. I mean, Elle Driver (Daryl Hannah) is still out there, Sophie Fatale (Julie Dreyfus) got her arms cut off, she’s still out there. They all got Bill’s money. Gogo (Chiaki Kuriyama) had a twin sister, her twin sister could show up.”

Yet no sequel is expected at this point given Tarantino’s plan to end his career with a tenth yet-to-be-announced project that isn’t expected to revisit the Kill Bill universe.
