The complete cut of ‘Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair’ will hit cinemas this December, featuring never-before-seen footage and a unified edit.
The definitive version of ‘Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair’ now has its official trailer. Quentin Tarantino’s unified work — combining Volume 1 and Volume 2 into a single, uncut film — arrives in U.S. theatres for the first time on 5 December, exactly as the director always intended it to be seen. With a total running time of 281 minutes — including a 15-minute intermission — this release restores the extreme cinematic experience Tarantino originally conceived: one film, one story, one catharsis.
The film also includes a brand-new seven-and-a-half-minute animated sequence, never before shown to the public. Tarantino explained it plainly in previous statements: “I wrote and directed it as one movie. The best way to see it is in a cinema, in glorious 70mm or 35mm. Blood and guts on the big screen, in all their glory.”
The story once again centres on Uma Thurman as Beatrix Kiddo, also known as The Bride: a pregnant woman betrayed by her boss and lover, Bill (played by David Carradine), and left for dead. After years in a coma and the loss of her baby, she embarks on a quest for revenge that became a cultural landmark in modern cinema. The cast also includes Lucy Liu, Vivica A. Fox, Michael Madsen, Daryl Hannah, Gordon Liu, and Michael Parks, reinforcing the legendary weight of this universe.
With this release, the story gains historical magnitude: for the first time, audiences will experience ‘Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair’ as a single, definitive piece — free from commercial filters. A return to stylised violence, aesthetic excess, and Tarantino’s mythic universe that shaped an entire generation of filmmakers and audiences. From December onwards, the cult returns to the big screen.
