The acclaimed director emphasized that the narrative arc concluded with the second volume, leaving no room for a sequel, Movieweb reported.
The conclusion of Kill Bill
Tarantino’s Kill Bill films, starring Uma Thurman as Beatrix Kiddo (aka The Bride), are celebrated homages to classic revenge films. The series follows The Bride’s quest for revenge against Bill (David Carradine) and the Deadly Vipers after she is left for dead at her wedding. The unique blend of Asian action cinema and animation has made Kill Bill a standout film in Tarantino’s esteemed filmography.
In his podcast conversation, Tarantino addressed fans’ lingering hope for a Kill Bill 3He bluntly said: “No, I did it. I killed Bill,” Movieweb is quoted as saying in a report.
This statement refers to the climactic ending of Kill Bill Vol. 2, where The Bride successfully uses the “Five-Pointed Palm Heart Explosion Technique” to get revenge on Bill. According to Tarantino, this resolution means there is no narrative need for a third film.
Tarantino on trilogies
The discussion at Club Random also touched on the success and failure of trilogies. Tarantino shared his perspective on what makes for a successful trilogy, citing Sergio Leone’s Dollars trilogy (A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, and The Good, the Bad and the Ugly) as the epitome of a well-executed series. He praised Leone’s trilogy for its progression, with each film surpassing the previous one in scope and impact. Tarantino argued that most trilogies fail to maintain the same level of excellence in their final installment. He noted, “The first movie is great. But the second movie is so great and brings the whole idea to such a big canvas that it obliterates the first one. And then the third one does the same thing to the second one.” This, he believes, is a rare achievement in film trilogies.
