It was always Quentin Tarantino's intention to bring Kill Bill to the big screen as one lengthy film. However, the studios insisted that Tarantino split the project into two and release it separately.
Well, Tarantino has been hinting recently that the project may be released into cinemas in one long cut, possibly within the coming year.
According to Total Film, Tarantino said: "What’s going on with that is originally back when Kill Bill was going to be one movie, I wrote an even longer anime sequence. I.G. [the Japanese Anime Studio] who did Ghost In The Shell said we can’t do that and finish it in time for your thing. And you can’t have a thirty-minute piece in your movie.”
“I said okay. It was my favourite part but it was the part you could drop. So we dropped it and then later when I.G. heard we were talking about doingKill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair, they still had the script, so without even being commissioned, they just did it and paid for it themselves.”
“It’s really terrific,” he continues. “Anyway, The Weinstein Company and myself were talking about actually coming out with it sometime, not before the year is out, but within the next year with limited theatrical engagement as well.”
So that's it. We may see Kill Bill, a very lengthy version with a nice animated section, back in cinemas by 2015.
