Quentin Tarantino to release Kill Bill movies as intended with epic runtime
‘New’ four-hour Kill Bill film coming to cinemas
- Quentin Tarantino's two Kill Bill films have been merged into a single presentation titled Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair.
- This combined version will include an exclusive eight-minute animated sequence and remove the original cliffhanger and recap elements.
- The film has a running time of four hours and seven minutes and is set to be released by Lionsgate in select cinemas from 5 December.
- Tarantino said he originally envisioned Kill Bill as one movie, and encouraged fans to experience it on the big screen in 70mm or 35mm.
- He previously explained that releasing it as two separate films was a strategic decision, believing a four-hour movie might not have achieved the same popularity.
