For some years now, some fans of Quentin Tarantino’s films had hoped that a third “Kill Bill” film would be made – one that would see the daughter of Uma Thurman’s Beatrix ‘The Bride’ Kiddo character.
When Tarantino announced his ‘last film’ is the currently in the works “The Movie Critic,” there was still some hope that “Kill Bill Vol. 3” would be an exception.
The rise of Thurman’s real-life daughter Maya Hawke as a well-regard actress in her own right in “Stranger Things” and films like “Asteroid City” gives Tarantino an obvious candidate for a leading lady.
Now though, via De Morgen, Tarantino says stop holding out hope because the film won’t happen: “I don’t see that happening. My last film is about a film critic, a male critic and it’s set in the 70s.”
This marks a change from 2019 when Tarantino said a third “Kill Bill” was “definitely in the cards” in a radio interview and that he had come up with an idea for a third one.
Four years on though Tarantino has decided to retire with “The Movie Critic” seemingly his final outing. The two-part “Kill Bill” films, released six months apart in 2003 and 2004, made $333.1 million worldwide off a combined $60 million budget.
