You cannot talk about cinema without mentioning iconic filmmaker Quentin Tarantino in some way, shape or form. The master of modern genre filmmaking is regarded as a true genius in the medium and his epic homage to Hong Kong action cinema and noirish spaghetti westerns is ready to premiere the definitive version with Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair. Separated into two films (much to the dismay of Tarantino himself), the long talked about complete version is now poised and ready to make its public debut. Lionsgate is set to unleash the unedited and complete four hour plus version in theaters this December.
Check out the full press release below and get ready to see The Bride take her vengeance the way it was meant to be seen!
Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair—Quentin Tarantino’s presentation of the revenge epic that was originally presented in two volumes—will be released by Lionsgate as one complete film in theaters nationwide for the first time on December 5, 2025.
The highly anticipated release marks one of the rare times that the entire epic has been presented as a single, combined film. Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair removes the cliffhanger ending from Vol. 1 and the recap that began Vol. 2. New to this theatrical release will be a never-before-seen, 7½-minute animated sequence. Select presentations of the release will be in 70mm and 35mm, and it is anticipated that the film will play in all major markets.
Tarantino said, “I wrote and directed it as one movie—and I’m so glad to give the fans the chance to see it as one movie. The best way to see Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair is at a movie theater in Glorious 70mm or 35mm. Blood and guts on a big screen in all its glory!”
Lionsgate manages library distribution rights for one of Hollywood’s largest portfolios of Tarantino films, which also includes Reservoir Dogs, Jackie Brown, Inglourious Basterds, Django Unchained, The Hateful Eight, and Death Proof.
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.
Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair stars Uma Thurman, Lucy Liu, Vivica A. Fox, Michael Madsen, Daryl Hannah, Gordon Liu, Michael Parks, and David Carradine as “Bill.” The film is produced by Lawrence Bender, written and directed by Quentin Tarantino, based on the character of “The Bride” created by Q&U.
I own both parts in 4K but will definitely be buying a ticket to see this ultimate cut which restores one of the best films ever made to its rightful glory. Hopefully the release is a wide one and will hit my area then we can only wait for the upcoming home video release which will surely contain a bunch of new extras and bells and whistles.
