Tarantino Talks 'Nikki Bell' and 'Beatrix Kiddo'...

Click images to enlarge...

Writer/director Quentin "Inglourious Basterds" Tarantino is reportedly developing, with actress Uma 'The Bride' Thurman, "Kill Bill 3".

Thurman, who gave an Oscar-worthy, gutsy performance in the first 2 Golden Globe/ Grammy Award-nominated "Kill Bill" films, (also receiving a co-writer credit), played the character of former 'Deadly Viper' assassin 'Beatrix Kiddo', aka 'Black Mamba'.

The new sequel will be given a 10-year break in the "Kill Bill" timeline, for Beatrix to spend time with daughter 'Beebe' she conceived with 'Bill' (David Carradine).

Tarantino first raised the spectre of "Kill Bill 3" during production of the original movie, split into 2 stand-alone features, proposing the idea of 'Nikki Bell' (Ambrosia Kelley), the 4-year old daughter of 'Vernita Green' aka 'Copperhead' (Vivica A. Fox), seeking revenge on 'The Bride', after witnessing Beatrix kill her mother, in a vicious knife fight in the kitchen of Green's suburban family home.

At that time Thurman's 'Bride' character said that she 'will be waiting' should an older Nikki, ever choose to come after her.

Tarantino has always said that he envisioned "Kill Bill" as an epic revenge saga that will go beyond 'Bill' and 'The Bride'.
