"Kill Bill: Vol. 3" in the works?; Quentin Tarantino rumored to begin shooting other film, "The Hateful Eight" in January 2015

It's been 11 years since the release of Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill Volume 1. Hallels recalled that in October of 2009, Tarantino announced on Italian national TV that he would do Kill Bill Volume 3, and said that he was just resting The Bride and added that it would be done in 2014. KPopstarz also added that the third installment of Tarantino's Japanese killing-spree franchise is not going to be a sequel, but a full version of the first two films entitled, Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair.

During an appearance at the San Diego Comic Con, Slash Film reported that Taratnino revealed that he and The Weinstein Company have had discussions about releasing the third installmaent of Kill Bill in theaters "within the next year."

In a recent article posted by Collider at the Dynamite Entertainment panel, Tarantino was asked about the status of the upcoming Kill Bill movie. The director 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. So you see in the movie, O-Ren kills her boss, but then there was that long hair guy... The big sequence was her fighting that guy. I.G. (a 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 30 minute piece in your movie. I said "okay." It was my favorite part, but it was the part you could drop. So we dropped it and then later when I.G. heard we were talking about doing Kill 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. 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."

It was also speculated that the third Kill Bill film will be scrapped following the announcement that Tarantino will be pursuing his supposedly cancelled film, The Hateful Eight. The cause of the cancellation, according to Screen Rant, was that the script leaked online, however, it added that Tarantino is rumored to be shooting the script together with Kurt Russell and Samuel L. Jackson and principal photography may begin as soon as January 2015.

In addition, Russell might have spilled the beans in an interview with Good Day Philadelphia. He said, "I've got a couple of projects [coming up]... there's a Tarantino project called Hateful Eight that looks like it may go somewhere around the beginning of the year."
