Miramax has confirmed this week to distributors that Kill Bill
Vol.2 has been moved to April 16th in the US. No word on what
the new UK date is, have asked Buena Vista for the new date

as we speak. Also this affects the DVD release of Vol.1 which
now looks to be 13th April.

Wednesday 10th September 2003: Kill Bill Update:
Uma Thurman reckons that Quentin Tarantino's forthcoming Kill Bill will prove too violent to clean up at the Oscars. Thurman was Oscar-nominated for her turn in Pulp Fiction, but says Tarantino's latest will be a harder sell. "It will be highly unlikely that happens again this time. The story is split and it's so violent [that] I don't think the Academy will like it. It doesn't pander to the Oscar community."

Thursday 17th July 2003: Kill Bill Update:
It has been confirmed that Kill Bill is being split into TWO movies. Part I
will be released on October 10th with no date set yet for Part II. The
running time of the movie was coming in at over 3 hours and rather than cut
the movie they have decided to split it in half. Personally I would have
been happy to watch a three hour plus movie, but two movies = double
revenue so you work it out.
Wednesday 17th July 2003: Kill Bill Update:
Talk of Quentin Tarantino splitting his forthcoming movie Kill Bill into two
has resurfaced. Apparently, he's shot so much footage that the movie might
be released in to parts, with a sequel hitting cinemas next year. The movie
is believed to be 197 minutes long and Miramax boss Harvey Weinstein is said
to be happy at the thought of getting two movies for the price of one.

Friday 6th June 2003: Kill Bill Update:
Lucy Liu has been talking about Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill, warning that
it could well turn a few stomachs. "It's so violent," she told the press in
Beijing while promoting Charlie's Angels 2. "People will leave the movie
theatre or get sick in the movie theatre. There's so much violence that it
becomes not numbing, but almost comedic. There's a scene where there's so
much violence that the colour of the film goes into black and white, so that
the blood looks like oil. It's cinematic, it's art." She also added that you
shouldn’t let the odd severed limb put you off. "You can take it to a
different level, and show what violence is in such a heightened manner that
you don't think of it as violence anymore. You think of it as a language."
Thursday 15th June 2003: Kill Bill Update:
Quentin Tarantino has slammed Hollywood's dependence on computer-generated imagery in action movies. "I get, like, really bored with it," he told the
BBC recently, aiming a particular shot at the new Matrix movie. "In Titanic
it was great, but now I just feel like I'm watching a video game. I don't
buy it. I think it's lazy and lame. They're doing car crap which William
Friedkin used to do for real, and I'm supposed to be impressed because
they're doing it with a computer? I'm sorry. I'm not impressed." The
director also revealed that the only CGI used in his forthcoming chop-socky
action flick Kill Bill was to remove the wires in the wire-work action
sequences. "For Kill Bill we had the cream of the crop of Hong Kong and the
cream of the crop of America doing it and I'm here to tell you, that's the
cream of the crop! While everybody else was messing around with computers,
we were doing it with real human beings!" As for his opinion of the The
Matrix Reloaded, he said this: “I have to say I was disappointed with it. I
still liked it but I loved the first one. I saw the first one 12 times, but
I can't imagine sitting through the first 20 minutes of Zion ever again!
Yeah, I was a little disappointed."
Monday 26th May 2003: Kill Bill Update:
David Carradine has been talking about Kill Bill "We wrote a little bit of it, I say just a little bit because Quentin is the author. We'd smoke a cigar in the evening and talk and talk and talk and a week later there's a rewrite and it has that conversation in it. I talk endlessly. Basically I'm doing the Samuel L Jackson part in this movie. I'm just talking my head off, in between killing people". He also spilled on one piece of luck he had it seems at the end of the movie, "I can't tell you too much about it, but there's a long sequence between Uma and me that is like a love scene, except at the end of it we have a fight. That's probably the sweetest moment". The report also mentions a recent rumour that 'Bill' will actually be split into two movies, although a Miramax exec has debunked that but says it "will be one movie but presented in 'three distinct segments'".

Monday 24th February 2003: Kill Bill Update:
David Carradine has revealed that Kill Bill MIGHT be split into two movies "Shooting has been going on so long -- with Quentin continuing to write scenes -- that plans are afoot to turn 'Kill Bill' into two 90-minute features that would be released within five weeks of each other. The first film would end with a cliffhanger, so that everyone would want to see the second half. I was called back in January to do an additional scene Tarantino had written, and was back again twice in February. Dividing 'Kill Bill' into two films would mean my returning to the cameras again for some connective tissue."

Monday 23rd September 2002: Kill Bill Update:
Quentin Tarantino has signed up RZA from Wu Tang Clan to compose the score for Kill Bill. Quite a cool move, methinks as RZA was previously responsible for the soundtrack of Ghost Dog:Way Of The Samurai. Also taking a part in the score is drummer for Metallica, Lars Ulrich.

21st May 2002: Kill Bill Update:
The Tuesday Night Movie Club have posted a new script review of Quentin Tarantinoi's Kill Bill. As fas as I know, this is only the second review of his screenplay online, the first being by Harry Knowles. In the TNMC review Deadpool writes.....
"It was worth the wait. Quentin was absolutely right about waiting for Uma to do this film. I can't imagine anyone else playing The Bride. It's true I've been admiring Uma for almost a decade now. I had a photo of her in my senior year agenda. Tall, talented, sexy and gorgeous. What more can a guy ask for? Well, can she kick some serious ass? This picture will erase any doubts about that. The Bride aka Black Mamba is a professional assassin and a damn good one too. She can use a knife, samurai sword and her own body to wreak havoc. I'm drooling with anticipation for her fight-scenes. UMA RULES!!! There's also another captivating thing about her character, we only hear her 'real name' in Chapter 8. Till that point, every time someone would say her 'real name' its bleeped. A little outlandish but it becomes an fascinating payoff". For more click here.

Variety have reported that Kill Bill will be Tarantino's first novel, and will be released six months before the movie. But he book will not be a novelisation, as Tarantino explains,
"'Kill Bill' is a novel, a cinematic novel. I'm moving away from screenplay format, keeping what I do like of the form and throwing away what I don't. I write tons of prose. It's all about the page; it's the writer in me. 'Kill Bill' is not a novelization. It functions as a script, and it functions as a novel, but it's not a script and it's not a novelization. It's something in the middle that gets across my writing style as its purest."
8/4/02
Three more actors have joined the cast of Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill. Vivicia Fox, who played Jasmine (Will Smith's love interest) in Independence Day, will play Vernita Green (aka COBRA), one of The Bride's ex-compatriots. Joining her will be Spawn star Michael Jai White. He will play a character named Alburt. Finally, LaTanya Richardson will play L.F. O'Boyle. Richardson has appeared in such films as Malcolm X, US Marshals and Lone Star, but is also known as being the wife of Samuel L. Jackson.
2/4/02
It seems that Quentin Tarantino will act in Kill Bill as well as write and direct. Tarantino will appear in the movie as Pai Mei, a 150 year old martial arts master. Aint It Cool broke this story yesterday, and claims that Tarantino originally wanted fight choreographer Yuen Wo Ping to play Mei. He declined after saying that [Tarantino] needed him to train the other actors and that he would to need training for the role also and that 'wouldn't do [him] any good'. So, Wo Ping suggested that Tarantino should play the part.
"Quentin laughed it off, but Yuen Wo Ping was emphatic, citing the voice that Quentin did for the character and the fact that whenever he talked about the role, he would act it out and do all the physical moves. Quentin knew that playing the role would mean that he would have to go through martial arts training during pre-production with his actors, a major investment of time, but gradually warmed up to the idea".
So now Tarantino is in training for the role, along with his actors. He will play the 150 year old Pei Mei. For the full article go on over to Aint It Cool News.
1/4/02
Warren Beatty has pulled out of Tarantino's Kill Bill. The actor, awarded a lifetime achievement BAFTA this year, said that he couldn't fit filming into his schedule. He is thought to have been replaced by David Carradine, who starred in 70's TV show Kung Fu. Check out the actors IMDB page for more details on his career, plus pics.
19/3/02
Quentin Tarantino has been out in Beijing preparing to shoot Kill Bill. Whilst there, he spoke to Beijing Youth where he had the following to say about writing the many action scenes for the film.
"For an average script, you must first imagine what the action scene is then you shoot it. But my script is different. In my script, you can see all the actions. In my script. action and fight scenes alone occupy 22 pages, which has cost me a whole year to write. This is the hardest thing I have ever done in my life. I not only had to make it better but also had to design each move as well as the momentum and the strength among the words. Each sentence must show feelings and strengths. I just wrote and re-wrote, for a whole year. Just like this, the script has gradually been enriched and become more complete. I first wrote it section by section. If it was too hard to come out connections between sections, I just left them blank and went to watch Hong Kong movies, watch Japanese samurai movies, to look for inspirations to fill my script. This process is painful and long. The final product is something totally original and something of my own".
A full article on the interview is up on Monkey Peaches.
Also, be sure to check out our new Quentin Tarantino shopping page over on The Z Review Shopping Network.
15/3/02
Variety have confirmed that both Daryl Hannah and Lucy Liu are in final talks to star in Tarantino's Kill Bill. Hannah will play a hit woman while Lui will star as Oren Ishi, queen of the Tokyo Yakuza. Michael Madsen will also appear as Bill's brother.
Jacqueline Bisset may also be contemplating a part in the pic.
Variety also adds that "Kill Bill" has a start date in June, and will shoot in California, China, Japan and Mexico.
24/1/02
Quentin Tarantino has said to Fox News that he wants every actor working on his new film Kill Bill to learn martial arts. This includes Uma Thurman, Michael Madsen, Lucy Liu and 65 year old veteran Warren Beatty. The fight choreography in the film will be overseen by Woo Ping Yuen (The Matrix, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon).
In other Kill Bill news, i've read reports that Darryl Hannah has also joined the cast. Variety reports that she will play an assasin in the film. "I've got to be in killer shape, doing karate, swordfighting and all kinds of things in Quentin's movie," so it looks like she will also undergo that martial arts training, "The problem was that this summer I fractured my spine jumping my horse in the woods. I spent three months in a brace, going ouch."
12/8/01
Harry over at Aint It Cool scored a chat with Quentin Tarantino regarding his his upcoming projects Glorious Bastards and Kill Bill. Here's an outline of what QT had to say:
- Kill Bill will be Tarantino's Grindhouse movie in the same vein as From Dusk 'Till Dawn and Natural Born Killers. Pure exploitation. This is opposed to Tarantino's realer than real films like Reservoir Dogs. Glorious Bastards will fit into that type of film.
- An answer to those Lucy Liu rumours. QT has written a small role for her and has met with her to discuss. She will not take the main role.
- Uma Thurman will play 'The Bride', Kill Bills central character.
- He will complete both films and release them close together.
- Kill Bill, the screenplay is now completed.
- By March of 2002, the actresses that will star in Kill Bill will begin Martial Arts training and will start shooting in June!
- He will shoot Glorious Bastards in late summer/ early autumn 2002.
- Kill Bill will be shot in Japan, Texas, LA, Mexico and Hong Kong.
So there you have it. Check out Harry's full article for more info.
26/7/01
There were a few rumours circulating yesterday that Lucy liu had replaced Uma Thurman in Kill Bill's lead role. Harry over at Aint It Cool cleared the rumour up yesterday with Liu taking a part in Ecks Vs Sever rather than Thurmans role in this. Regarding Uma, however, it is still not known if she will appear as she has recently fallen pregnant. Here's the link to the Montreal Gazette article that started off this rumour.
17/5/01
Quentin Tarantino, while over in Cannes, did an interview with French channel Canal + where he said that Patricia Arquette would star in his next movie story about 'a hooker who slips into a ten-year coma after being assaulted by her pimp. When she awakens she prepares to take revenge'. So not Uma Thurman after all?
11/5/01
Kill Bill may not be Tarantinos next movie. According to various internet sources, it's rumoured that QT may have completed a movie entitled Forty Lashes, an adaptation of an Elmore Leonard novel. The movie is a western and AICN picked up on the story after QT was spotted in Mexico back last year, but rumours were rubbished back then when he said he was visiting the set of Gore Verbinski's The Mexican. There were also claims that he was directing that movie. Now, this is the interesting part. Over in Cannes there is going to be a screening of a 'secret movie' on Sunday at 11pm. The rumours are, that it will be Forty Lashes.
Some more news emerged today when Roger Avary (co-writer of Pulp Fiction and friend of QT) was confronted about the project. He wouldn't say a word, but if you venture to his official website, you'll find the following message posted; '39 is this weeks lucky number. Cannes you dig it? So, what is that supposed to mean. Think about it. Anyway we're all quite excited about the news and we can't wait 'til Sunday!!!
25/4/01
Joblo has done some background research into the latest Tarantino project and has found out the following; The movie is scheduled to go into production late this year although Uma Thurman told Daily News that "(Tarantino) has been two weeks away from being done for nine months now". Meawhile Thurman herself has been under going intense training including how to handle a Samurai Sword.
6/3/01 - All has been quiet recentley although the casting rumour mill has just starting up with Sam Jackson rumoured to be up for a part.
