Lionsgate has dropped a fresh 30 second teaser and two new posters for the upcoming release of Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair, landing in theaters this December. If you have been waiting to finally see Tarantino’s original vision as one seamless, unrated epic, the opportunity is coming!
This long awaited cut brings together Kill Bill: Volume 1 and Kill Bill: Volume 2 as a single experience exactly as Quentin Tarantino intended more than two decades ago.
The film stars Uma Thurman as The Bride, an assassin who survives a brutal attack at her wedding rehearsal and then cuts her way across the world to get vengeance. The cast also includes Lucy Liu, Vivica A. Fox, Michael Madsen, Daryl Hannah, Gordon Liu as Pai Mei, Michael Parks, and David Carradine as Bill.
The Whole Bloody Affair also includes a never before seen anime sequence that Tarantino originally envisioned as part of the complete story.
The full presentation clocks in at four and a half hours with an intermission which gives audiences the rare chance to watch this saga unfold.
The synopsis reads: “Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair unites Volume 1 and Volume 2 into a single, unrated epic presented exactly as he intended, complete with a new, never-before-seen anime sequence.
“Uma Thurman stars as The Bride, left for dead after her former boss and lover Bill ambushes her wedding rehearsal, shooting her in the head and stealing her unborn child. To exact her vengeance, she must first hunt down the four remaining members of the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad before confronting Bill himself.
“With its operatic scope, relentless action, and iconic style, The Whole Bloody Affair stands as one of cinema’s definitive revenge sagas rarely shown in its complete form, and now presented with a classic intermission.”
This release is a big event for Tarantino fans. When Volume 1 arrived in 2003 followed by Volume 2 in 2004, many hoped the combined cut would eventually surface. Tarantino referenced his dream version over the years but screenings were few and far between. Now it is finally hitting nationwide screens in all its cinematic fury.
Presented as Tarantino’s fourth and fifth feature at the time, this is the version produced by Lawrence Bender and based on the character of The Bride created by Q&U. Lionsgate will debut Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair in theaters nationwide starting December 5, 2025.
This cut looks ready to deliver everything fans loved about the original films while giving them something new to experience on the big screen. It is going to be awesome to see this saga finally unleashed the way it was meant to be seen.
